Getting There

  • Car

    If you are traveling by car within Chyulu Hills National Park, head towards the Unnamed Road that leads to Amboseli. From the main park entrance, follow the signs directing you toward Amboseli. The journey should take around 30-40 minutes, depending on your starting point within the park. Keep an eye out for wildlife on the road and drive cautiously. The Kilimanjaro Balloon Safaris will be on your right as you approach the area.

  • Public Transportation

    For those using public transport, you can take a matatu (shared taxi) from the main town of Mtito Andei to Amboseli. Once you reach the Amboseli junction, you may need to hire a local taxi or guide to take you to Kilimanjaro Balloon Safaris, as public transport does not go directly to the site. The taxi ride will take approximately 20-30 minutes. Be sure to negotiate the fare before starting your journey. The average cost for a taxi from the junction to the balloon safaris is around KES 1,500-2,000.
