Kenya is truly the home of the Safari and a place that everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime, not just for the spectacular wildlife but also for the sweeping vistas of the Great Rift Valley, shimmering lakes and pristine beaches.
It is a land of contrasts, from the world famous Treetops in the Aberdare Mountains, charming and friendly locals with their rich and fascinating culture, to the grandeur of the vast plains of the Masai Mara, where elephants wander long distances in search of food, the restless and excitable zebra watch for predators whilst the soaring eagle scans the ground for a tasty bite. The word ‘Safari' originated from Kenya where in iswahili it means ‘journey' and the wilds of Kenya is definitely a journey into nature at its purest. This is the land of endless potential for the wildlife enthusiast as Kenya alone has 59 national parks and game reserves including the greatest wildlife spectacle, the annual wildebeest migration to the Masai Mara. The great range of natural habitats means that there is plenty to explore, and an abundance of species to encounter. Whilst in Kenya why not visit the east coast and one of Africa's major tourist destinations, Mombasa, with its 300 mile Indian Ocean coastline, where you will find some of the finest beaches in the world, fringed by coconut palms, lapped by the azure blue water and a protective coral reef. A town colonised by various cultures since the 15th century, the old town of Mombasa shows the many influences left behind by the Portuguese, Arabs and British. |
