Tsavo is the largest national park in Kenya and one of the best places to see elephants.

Located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, Amboseli National Park is renowned for its breathtaking views and large elephant populations. With over 1,000 elephants, this park is one of the best in Kenya for spotting these magnificent animals.

Elephant sightings are great throughout the year in Kenya, but the best times to visit are December to February and June to October. These months are typically drier, making it easier to spot elephants as they gather around water sources. While the wet season (March to May and November) can still offer great sightings, the dry months usually provide better conditions for both wildlife and photography.
