KENYA
A Safari to Kenya really does it all from the diverse and authentic cultures, game rich grassy plains, topped off with pristine beaches, it is no surprise tourists have been coming on safari to Kenya for many decades. The word safari is Swahili for "Journey" and many believe this is where the concept of the safari first began.
Kenya is most famous for the Masai Mara and the annual wildebeest and zebra migration that cross back and forth over the Mara River. Every year millions of wildebeest and zebra make their way north from the Serengeti National Park to the Masai Mara in search of fresh grasses after the rains. As the herds move north, they cross over the crocodile infested waters, often with dramatic consequences. Outside of the migration season, the Masai Mara is still one of the best safari destinations in Africa. When the herds have moved off, it gives the animals a chance to come out and so it often offers guests a more diverse Kenyan safari experience.
Aside from the famous Masai Mara, a safari to Kenya offers a wide variety of safari options including Amboseli National Park with its iconic Kilimanjaro backdrop to the arid north, home to the colorful and proud Samburu people.
A safari to Kenya offers guests one a unique opportunity to stay in small, owner run safari camps and lodges that support local communities and conservation projects.
With its central location, Kenya is a safari destination that easily combines with many other African destinations. Nowadays Nairobi acts as a hub for people looking to combine their Kenyan safari with other African safari destinations. Combine a safari to Kenya with a lemur holiday in Madagascar, a gorilla safari in Rwanda or the Congo, a wine and culinary experience in Cape Town or a visit to the mighty Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe or Zambia.
