Amboseli National Park is justly famous for its big game and scenic beauty. Kilimanjaro is the highest single mountain in the world and tallest part of Africa. Game viewing is particularly easy in this park. There is a permanent concentration of animals in the area centered on the dry salt lake at Ol tukai.

Mount Kenya National Park is located in indigenous forest 7,200 feet up in the foothills of the Mount Kenya National Reserve. On a clear day you can see the jagged peaks of Mount Kenya through the trees. Game is watched from the balconies facing the flood lit waterhole.

Samburu National Reserve is famously referred as the 'Born-Free Country", where Elsa the lioness was brought up by Joy Adamson the wife of George who was a game warden. Later the Born-Free Movie series were produced here and more recently Samburu was also the venue where "Survivor Africa" movie series was shot. The Park offers sanctuary to the endangered Grevy's Zebra, the rare beisa Oryx and the blue-shanked Somali Ostrich.

Sweetwaters Game Sanctuary is a private game sanctuary, which is home to Sweetwaters Tented Camp. From the camp there are magnificent views across the plains to the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya. The luxurious thatched-roofed tents overlook a large waterhole, which is floodlit by night providing a haven for thirsty wildlife. The waterhole offers excellent and secluded game viewing, rarely seen elsewhere.

Lake Nakuru National Park is world famous haunt for flamingos. This is a beautiful shallow lake just south of the township Nakuru, surrounded by acacia woodland and rich savannah. The park is a superb example of conservation at work in the wild. Originally, and is still considered one of the finest ornithological sites in the world, the park also provides sanctuary for Rothschild giraffe, rhino and leopard.

Masai Mara National Reserve Vast is the name of the game in the Maasai Mara. The spectacular game reserve with its undulating plains, hills and woodland grooves in the Southeast corner of Kenya, shares its Southern border with Tanzania. This is lion and elephant country with leopard, cheetah and a recovering population of black rhino. The Mara is home to several hundreds species of birdlife and is famous for the annual migration of the wildebeest thundering across the southern plains of the Serengeti into the Maasai Mara.
