The small Selenkay Conservation Area just north of Amboseli offers excellent wildlife viewing to a privileged few. This 15,000-acre private game reserve in the heart of Maasailand admits just 12 visitors per day. But don't let the small size of this eco-reserve dissuade you; the Selenkay Conservation Area, an important dispersal area for wildlife migrating in and out of Amboseli, is home to a larger number of species than Amboseli National Park. What's more, bird life at Selenkay is prolific. Spot elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, zebra, and giraffe. View caracal, African wildcat, civet, gerenuk, lesser kudu and striped hyena and sight African birds of prey on an intimate African wildlife safari.
