Highlights of Safaris to Kenya
Masai Mara National Reserve is undoubtedly the most popular and must-visit safari destination during Kenya tours, and has surprisingly featured in numerous National Geographic and BBC wildlife documentaries. Besides its remarkable Great annual migration (involving wildebeests, gazelles and zebras climaxed by River crossings) that makes it a hot cake, the Reserve is also haven to dozens of black manned lions, cheetahs, Defassa waterbucks, leopards, Giant elands, Coke’s hartebeests, warthogs, Aardvarks, spotted hyenas, aardwolves, Masai giraffes and so much more.
To the extreme southern side of the country, at the backdrop of Tanzania’s Mount Kilimanjaro is the spectacular Amboseli National Park. This small Protected Area of only 392 square kilometers is a stronghold for its free-ranging elephants although visitors are also introduced to Hippos, wildebeests, Cape buffaloes, Masai giraffes, Grant’s zebras, lions, leopards, lesser kudu, Hyraxes and Dik-diks among others.
Visitors to the Central county of Laikipia are introduced to extraordinary Conservancies such as Ol Pejeta, where significant populations of Black and northern white Rhinos are found while adventurous travellers who are prepared for an adrenaline rush can take on Mount Kenya (through running, mountain biking or hiking/climbing).
In the extreme East of Kenya are tranquil white sand beaches of Lamu and Diani surrounded by the warm and azure waters of the Indian Ocean. This is where the holiday makers, vacation fanatics and visitors looking for unwinding escape to. Nairobi, the largest and Capital City of this country takes pride in being one of the largest Business Hubs with a spectacular savannah National Park at just a stone throw from the City Center hence making it the World’s only City with a National Park.
Kenya safaris are incomplete without its beautiful, welcoming and warm people belonging to about 44 Tribes. This therefore means that travellers are introduced to varying ancient traditions, local cuisines, cultural dances, traditions and visitors to popular places like Masai Mara National Reserve can get to interact with the Masai pastoralists while travellers to Samburu National Reserve will meet the Samburu people.

Best time to explore the beauty of Kenya
Kenya is open all year round for safaris but the best time to explore most of its attractions is June to October (traditional dry season) because it is when the Great Migration involving wildebeests, gazelles and zebras is at its peak in Masai Mara National Reserve. This season is also perfect for game drives as grasses are shorter and few watering points remain in the Park thus expect maximum visibility. However, if you are the kind of person that doesn’t enjoy huge crowds, then the rainy season is when you should travel to Kenya.
