安博塞利国家公园面积约392平方公里,设立为国家公园于1974年。坐落于裂谷省(Rift Valley Province)内、距内罗毕约240公里,车程约3–4小时。
这里最吸引人的,是那排乞力马扎罗山(Mt Kilimanjaro)雪顶作为背景的大象群迁徙景象。地形包括干涸的湖床、稀树草原、沼泽湿地、林地与灌木地,形成多个栖息带。
公园是世界级的大象观察地之一。成群大象在浅湿地、湖滩或草原间缓缓移动,脚下扬起淡淡盐尘,这是当地 Maasai 语“Amboseli”(意为“盐尘”)的由来。
除大象外,你还可能见到狮子、斑马、长颈鹿、角马、猎豹等,以及超过400种鸟类,湿地尤其是观鸟热点。
此外,你也可以安排访问马赛族(Maasai)社区,体验传统牧畜文化与现代保护项目的结合。这里的社区旅游有助于推动生态保护与当地可持续发展。
从内罗毕出发驾车或搭乘短程飞机至 Kimana 或 Meshanani 空strip,然后进入公园。门票、车辆收费等可参考官方公布。
旱季(如1–2月、6–10月)通常为野生动物活动频繁、光线佳、道路通行顺畅的时期。雨季虽然景色更绿、鸟类活跃,但可能道路泥泞或部分活动受限。
根据预算可选从帐篷营地、生态旅舍到豪华旅馆。建议提早预订,尤其旺季。

Mohammed Bin Mahfooz Another jungle visit and this was is much different than Masai Mara, the weather here was warmer and air seemed to be more dusty. The visibility here much clearer as no tall grasses. Lots of species spotted, waited almost for an hour to watch a Lion attack a herd of zebras but didn’t happen as the bird warned the zebras away. Mount Kilimanjaro was visible from a distance.
Ido Isler An amazing safari park. things I liked: it's a relatively small park, the drivers corporate with each other and stay on the roads without disturbing the animals, it's very easy to see elephants, zebras, giraffes, antelopes, wort hogs and wildebeests. you might also see lions,ostriches and Hippos if you're lucky.
Lyndsay Gordon While you can't go off road like some other areas - the animals still come right up to the vehicle. This is a birder's paradise as well, especially for wetland birds.
L V Fantastic National Park covering hundreds of square kilometers. Beautiful grasslands surrounded by mountains. Abundant wildlife sightings during safari. Many roads crisscrossing the park. A lot of elephants, zebras, flamingos, gazelles, giraffes, hippos, wildebeests, and other water birds. The views of Mt.Kilimanjaro are amazing. There are big wildcats like lions and cheetahs, but we did not see them during our three day stay.
