7 Days Bigfive Safari - Nairobi

Absolutely incredible from start to finish! Bryan was awesome in helping me plan my trip. He was very responsive and answered all my seemingly endless questions. He even called me during and after my safari to make sure I was okay and that everything was going well. My driver, Dennis, was awesome as well. He made sure I got to see just about every animal in Kenya! He did a fantastic job at getting me as close as possible and even helped get the perfect photos. He also helped coordinate some of the optional activities I wanted to do. He entertained me during our long drives between parks with stories about life in Kenya and about the culture. He even played some traditional African music for me! Thank you Bryan and Dennis for the incredible experience! I would definitely book with these guys again!

5 Days Kenya medium range safari for Amboseli and Tsavo Parks from Nairobi to Mombasa

I would highly recommend CKC Tours. John responded to all our queries promptly and went back and forth until we had an itinerary we were happy with. We were then met by John at the airport and given all the documentation for our trip which included lodges at Masai Mara and Amboseli and internal flights. It was all very easy and well organised. I also found it to be very competitively priced considering the service we received and the standard of accommodation.

The communication with John was very good. He was very responsive and answered all of our questions. At first we were slightly hesitant to do a down payment but this is just how safari operators work and in the end was nothing to worry about, it all went fine. The safari was great! The 4x4 van was very comfortable and steady and brought us to the most remote places of the parks. Kennedy, our driver, was awesome and has a lot of knowledge on the animals, the country and is an amazingly skilled driver. He made our safari just as we wanted it and was as thrilled to see animals as we were. We saw all of the Big Five and managed to get very close to them. Thank you so much Kennedy and John!

AndBeyond Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp

Kenya is located in East Africa and encompasses classic savannah, mountain highlands, colourful tribal cultures, freshwater lakes and pristine coral reefs. The Masai Mara is world renowned for the “ Great Mammal Migration ” and sightings of the famous “Big Five” (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino). The soda lake known as Lake Nakuru lights up with pink flamingos, whilst the Amboseli National Park offers sanctuary to an abundance of wildlife and birdlife. Kenya is home to Africas second highest mountain, whilst the Tsavo and Samburu game reserves offer rewarding safari experiences. Kenya boasts unforgettable bush and beach vacations with destinations such as Diani Beach providing the perfect setting for some well-deserved relaxation.

Kenya is a year-round destination for both safari and beach holidays.

The main tourist seasons tie in with the rainfall patterns: the biggest influxes of visitors are in December – January and July – August .

Dry-season travel has a number of advantages, not least of which is the greater visibility of wildlife as animals are concentrated along the diminishing watercourses. July to September is probably the best period, overall, for game-viewing, with early September almost certain to coincide with the annual wildebeest migration in the Maasai Mara.

October, November, and March are the months with the clearest seas for snorkeling and diving. In the long rains, the mountain parks are occasionally closed, as the muddy tracks are undrivable. But the rainy seasons shouldn’t deter travel unduly: the rains usually come only in short afternoon or evening cloudbursts, and the landscape is strikingly green and fresh even if the skies may be cloudy. There are bonuses, too: fewer other tourists, reduced prices and often perfect light for photography.

Renowned for its classic savanna safaris, Kenya is a beautiful country with deserts, alpine snows, forests, open plains, colorful tribal cultures, freshwater lakes and coral reefs. The wildlife safaris have always been the top attraction in Kenya. This huge wilderness is home to the most impressive wildlife spectacle on earth; The great migration. The great migration is a pilgrimage of millions of wildebeest and zebra in search of new pastures. The herds are followed by vast numbers of predators, including lions, hyenas and cheetahs. Other activities to be experienced in Kenya include trekking Mount Kenya, ballooning over the Masai Mara and snorkeling in Malindi on the Indian Ocean coast.

Masai Mara National Park

The Masai Mara National Reserve is one of the top tourist attractions in Kenya and the country’s most popular game park. Each year the Masai Mara National Reserve is visited by thousands of tourists who come here to watch the exceptional population of game and the annual migration of zebra and wildebeest. The “Great Migration” takes place every year from July to October when millions of wildebeest and zebra migrate from the Serengeti in Tanzania.

Amboseli National Park

Amboseli National Park is a relatively small park located close to the Tanzania border at the foot of Africa’s highest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. The park is famous for being the best place in Africa to get close to free-ranging elephants. Other wildlife includes giraffes, zebras, cheetahs and hundreds of bird species. ‘Must do’ attractions in the Amboseli National Park include meeting the Maasai people and witnessing the spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Nairobi National Park

Nairobi National Park is just a short drive from the center of Nairobi with only a fence separating the park’s wildlife from the metropolis. It is the only national park in the world to be found within the precincts of a capital city. Nairobi’s skyscrapers can be seen from the park. Despite its proximity to the city and the relatively small size of the park, Nairobi National Park boasts a large and varied wildlife population including the endangered black rhino, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, buffaloes, giraffes and diverse birdlife with over 400 species recorded.

Malindi is a town on Malindi Bay, in southeastern Kenya. It sits amid a string of tropical beaches dotted with hotels and resorts.Malindi provides a very nice introduction to the coastal tourist attractions in Kenya with its extensive coral reefs and beautiful beaches. There are surfing, snorkeling, deep-sea fishing and other water sports. The Malindi Marine National Park and nearby Watamu Marine National Park have protected areas with beautiful beaches, clear water, turtles and very colorful fish. Arabuko-Sokoke Forest Reserve harbors elephants and more than 200 species of birds.

Mombasa is Kenya's main tourist destination. It is on the eastern coastline of Kenya, bordering the Indian Ocean which has made it a popular destination for its beaches. Mombasa is a place where both history and progress are greatly valued, where a busy harbor existence is lived at its own unique, tropical pace. Mombasa offers a diverse marine life, world-class hotels, and friendly atmosphere. There is a tropical climate all year and it is a great destination filled with activities for all ages.

Mount Kenya

Mount Kenya is the highest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest in Africa, after Kilimanjaro. The mountain is an awe-inspiring sight and is often referred to as the ‘Place of Light’. Its ragged series of peaks are crowned with snow, and its slopes are covered with forest. The 5199 meter (17,057 ft) high summit is a difficult technical climb, several lowers peaks, however, are an easy destination for any fit trekker. The majority of animals live lower down on the slopes of Mount Kenya. Here there is more vegetation and the climate is less extreme. Various species of monkeys, several antelopes, tree hyrax, porcupines and some larger animals such as elephant and buffalo all live in the forest.

Samburu National Reserve

Samburu National Reserve is a very peaceful national park in Rift Valley Province of Kenya. It attracts wildlife because of the Uaso Nyiro River that runs through it and the mixture of forest and grassland vegetation. All three big cats, lion, cheetah and leopard, can be found here, as well as elephants, buffalo and hippos. The Uaso Nyiro River contains large numbers of Nile crocodile. Samburu also offers a sublime birding experience.

Hell’s Gate National Park

Hell’s Gate National Park is a small park named after a narrow break in the cliffs, once a tributary of a prehistoric lake that fed early humans in the Rift Valley. It is unique among Kenya’s wildlife parks, as you are allowed to walk or cycle without a guide. There’s dramatic scenery, with steep cliffs, gorges and basalt columns. The national park is home to a wide variety of wildlife, though many are few in number. Examples of little-seen wildlife include lions, leopards, and cheetahs.

Lamu Island

Lamu Island is a part of Kenya’s Lamu Archipelago and has managed to stay unspoiled and untouched by the mass tourism that has hit much of Kenya’s coastline. As the oldest living town in Kenya, Lamu Town has retained all the charm and character built up over centuries. There are no roads on Lamu Island, just alleyways and footpaths, and therefore, there are few motorized vehicles on the island. Residents move about on foot or by boat, and donkeys are used to transport goods and materials.

Tsavo National Park

Tsavo is one of the oldest and largest national parks in Kenya and in the world. Due to its size, the park was divided into Tsavo West and Tsavo East. The Tsavo West has spectacular scenery with a rolling volcanic landscape while Tsavo East has more open savannah than its western sibling. Tsavo National Park is the ideal destination in Kenya for people who seek solitude and privacy as well as the chance to explore the wilderness. The park is home to most of the larger mammals, vast herds of dust-red elephant, Rhino, buffalo, lion, leopard, pods of hippo, crocodile, waterbucks, Lesser Kudu, gerenuk and the prolific bird life features 500 recorded species.

Lake Nakuru

Lake Nakuru is a very shallow lake in central Kenya. The lake’s abundance of algae attracts vast quantities of flamingos, sometimes more than one million at once. Often called the greatest bird spectacle on earth, the flamingos are one of Kenya’s top attractions. Visitors can enjoy the wide ecological diversity and varied habitats that range from Lake Nakuru itself to the surrounding escarpment and picturesque ridges. Lake Nakuru National Park is ideal for bird watching, hiking, and game drives.

This is Diani Beach , voted three times Africa’s finest beach destination. Just 30 km (18 mi) from Mombasa, its clear, shallow waters harboring colorful coral reefs invite you to splash, discover, play, or just hang in the Indian Ocean with a tall cool one.

But Diani isn’t just sophisticated comfort – besides camel riding, you can make a splash going kitesurfing and jet skiing or try skydiving over the coast!

Kenya Safari and Beach Tours, whether enriched by AI or not, are a journey of transformation. They offer the chance to connect with the natural world, understand diverse cultures, and reflect on one’s place within this global tapestry. It’s a journey that reminds us of our responsibility to protect the Earth’s fragile ecosystems and to embrace technology in a way that fosters responsible travel and sustainable practices.

Kenya Safari and Beach Tours

By thoughtfully integrating AI into these tours, travelers can enjoy the best of both worlds: the magic of the natural world and the benefits of cutting-edge technology. The key lies in using AI as a tool to enhance the experience while never losing sight of the core values of responsible tourism, environmental stewardship, and cultural appreciation.

As the future unfolds, we can look forward to ever more innovative and responsible ways to experience the wonders of Kenya, recognizing that the journey itself is as transformative as the destination.

Journey with us, and together we’ll leave our world a better place

There is no better way to enjoy the World than to travel. The travel experience refreshes the mind, soul, and the spirit. Make it a goal.

Kenya Beach Safaris – When To Participate

Anytime! Kenya safaris and beach holidays can be undertaken any time of the year. The best period being July to September – the season of wildebeest migration from Tanzania’s Serengeti to Masai Mara in Kenya. During this season, hotels and airlines are usually heavily booked and one needs to plan early.

But you can choose to undertake this Safari together with your favorite beach holiday at a time when the season is said to be low. Low season falls between the month of April to the end of June every year.

Kenya’s coast enjoys warm tropical weather year-round, and you can enjoy time at the beach anytime of the year. However, if you’re looking for that specific warm weather, great prices and fewer crowds, you can take a look at the following:

December – March: This is the peak tourist season with sunny, dry weather. You will want to book early because hotels and resorts can all be booked ahead of time.

June – October: The cooler, drier months offer a perfect atmosphere. Hotel prices are more reasonable and fewer crowds.

April – May: The shoulder season provides a happy medium with decent weather and smaller crowds. Perfect for families

November: Short rains tend to fall in November, but picture lush landscape and lower prices to compensate.

Wild rhinos roaming Lake Nakuru National Park in Kenya

Spot endangered black and white rhino in Lake Nakuru National Park

While the park’s stunning Lake Nakuru isn’t a sight to scoff at, it’s Africa’s endangered rhino population that avid safari-goers long to see. If you’re lucky, you might spot one or two white rhinos stopping to drink at the water’s edge after a morning spent walking the arid landscape. But if you’re really lucky, you might spot an elusive black rhino – an animal that’s been critically endangered since 1996.

Explore the Masai Mara Game Reserve in search of lions and cheetahs

The Masai Mara Game Reserve promises a whole heap of unforgettable wildlife sightings, from a herd of elephants wandering across the landscape to gazelles staying wary of a predator’s watchful gaze. But the chance to catch sight of a black-maned lion as it basks in the African sun or see the spots of a cheetah as it prowls through the brush makes all of those early wake-up calls and late nights worth it.

Learn about the annual wildebeest migration across the Great Rift Valley

Your local leader’s not just there to keep you safe from the wild animals you see on your game drives but also to teach you about their mating rituals, eating patterns and migration habits. As you cross the Great Rift Valley, learn about the spectacular display of wildebeest migration that happens every year where one million wildebeest move towards greener pastures into the Masai Mara region.

Cruise along Lake Naivasha for a chance to see thirsty hippos and birdlife

Take your wildlife adventure off land and onto water with a boat trip on Lake Naivasha, the highest lake in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. Cruise the lake’s surface in search of thirsty, thirsty hippos in need of rehydration at the water’s edge and get your camera out to take photos of the magnificent birdlife in this part of the world – think African fish eagles, saddle-billed storks and lesser flamingoes. 

Kenya safari tour reviews

Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join a kenya safari.

Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises). However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.

Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.

When's the best time to go on a safari in Kenya?

Generally speaking, January, February and June to October are the best times to go on safari in Africa. This is the dry season, so animals tend to come out into more open spaces in search of water, making them easier to spot. However, you’ll be able to spot animals year-round and enjoy fewer crowds if you travel outside peak season.

Read more about the best time to go on safari .

Am I guaranteed to see animals?

We can’t guarantee you’ll spot the Big 5, but you’d have to be seriously unlucky to see no animals at all. On our safaris, you’ll explore some of the best game parks and national reserves in the world. These protected areas are filled with a huge variety of species and your expert driver and local leader will be on hand to point you in the right direction (literally).

What are the "Big Five"?

The “Big 5” used to refer to the five big game animals that were the most difficult to hunt. Now that most shooting is done on a camera, the Big 5 are the most exciting animals to spot while on safari: the lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo.

What should I pack for a safari in Kenya?

Loose, light layers in neutral colours are the best attire for a safari (dark colours will get hot in the sun and can attract the Tsetse fly). You’ll also want a sun hat, some good walking shoes, a camera, sunscreen and bug spray. For more details, check out our  ultimate Africa packing guide . 

What type of food will be served on a safari in Kenya?

It depends on the trip style you've chosen. On our Basix trips, you’ll have a cook travelling with you who'll whip up a variety of local and Western-style dishes. Along your route, your cook will stop to purchase fresh, locally sourced food for your meals. You can expect a variety of things for breakfast like fruit, eggs, toast and cereal; lunch is often sandwiches and salads; and dinner is usually a hearty meal like pasta, curry or a BBQ.

On our Original and Comfort trips there'll be more meals at camps and lodges along the way. One thing's for sure: you definitely won't be going hungry on safari!

What are the toilets and showers like on safari?

Most of the permanent tented camps will have private bathrooms with flushing toilets and showers with warm water.

Many of the campsites we stay at have communal facilities with flushing toilets and showers with warm water. However, in some of the more remote areas, there may only be basic facilities (toilets and cold running water).

Will I be able to use my mobile phone on safari?

Some of our hotels and campsites will have Wi-Fi, however, internet and phone access may be limited in more remote areas. But you won’t think twice about emails and social media when you’re watching a pride of lions prowl through long grass or enjoying a drink around the campfire with your group.

Are Intrepid's Kenya safaris accessible for travellers with disabilities?

We are committed to making travel accessible to everyone, so we will work with you to assess whether you will be able to complete an existing itinerary, or whether we will be able to make reasonable adjustments to meet your needs before you book. Please see our  accessible travel page  for more information.

WILDLIFE OPTIONS FOR YOUR LUXURY KENYA SAFARI ITINERARY & TOUR PACKAGES :-

There are a lot of wildlife safari destinations you can add to your itinerary:

Masai Mara National Reserve 

The Masai Mara National Reserve is an integral part of luxury Kenya safari itinerary. This wildlife reserve, known globally, distinguishes itself not only in Africa but also across the world. It celebrates its diverse wildlife species.

A Masai Mara safari features the amazing annual spectacle known as the great migration, a phenomenon exclusive to this corner of Kenya. Here, you can also indulge in luxury game drives.

Foremost among these is Masai Mara, arguably one of the most famous national parks worldwide. It is even featured in multiple wildlife documentaries like the BBC Big Cats Diary.

explore masai mara in your kenya tour packages

Masai Mara, located in Kenya, serves as the centerpiece for the grand annual migration. This extraordinary journey witnesses over 2 million Wildebeests and Zebras, often hailed as the 8th wonder of the world. This spectacle should be an essential inclusion in your itinerary.

The sheer abundance of big cats, birds, and other wildlife in the Mara never fails to astonish first-time visitors, and it continues to captivate seasoned safari-goers. In Masai Mara, you can encounter the entire African safari Big 5 , with over 470 bird species also recorded.

Notable mammals include Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Rhinos, Giraffes, Zebras, Elephants, Hippopotamuses, Impalas, Thomson Gazelles, Elands, Waterbucks, Warthogs, and of course, Wildebeests. All this diverse wildlife can be witnessed during a luxury safari around the reserve.

The reserve also boasts a selection of top-notch luxury properties to choose from. Adding the Mara to your itinerary elevates your holiday to another level.

Lake Nakuru National Park 

This 45 square km lake, one of the Rift Valley soda lakes, offers a unique experience that should feature in your holiday itinerary.

Encircling the lake is a picturesque forest known for its wildlife. Especially the Black Rhino and White Rhino population, the Rothschild Giraffe (distinct from the Masai Giraffe found in Masai Mara), and a multitude of bird species, many not found in Masai Mara. Previously, it was a prime habitat for thousands of flamingos.

The park is characterized by grasslands and woodlands. Though flamingos are still present, their numbers are not as abundant. Nevertheless, the colorful birdlife remains one of the highlights of Lake Nakuru’s itinerary.

Among the various wildlife species, Nakuru also boasts a healthy Lion population, often spotted.

A brief luxury safari through the park unveils the splendid wildlife within. Witnessing millions of pink flamingos congregating around the lake is an iconic sight during a Kenya vacation.

This is where you can embark on a boating safari to observe the diverse wildlife that frequents the lake, along with various water birds of Nakuru. Lake Nakuru is a superb addition to your Kenyan holiday itinerary.

Following a luxurious safari in Masai Mara, the second most popular wildlife national park is Amboseli in Kenya.

It is a staple in many Kenyan itineraries. The park is synonymous with its large elephant herds and the dramatic views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak on the African continent.

Alongside elephants, one can spot numerous plains animals, as well as predators like cheetahs and lions.

Panoramic views, incredible sunrises and sunsets, exclusive safari activities, and excellent wildlife viewing are just some of the offerings of Amboseli.

Africa’s tallest peak lies in Tanzania just across the border. To fully savor the best of wildlife, Amboseli is a must-visit during your luxury Kenya safari itineraries.

Laikipia Plateau 

Stretching to Lake Baringo, the Laikipia Plateau covers a wide area. It is one of the lesser-known wildlife areas, perfect for a calm yet luxurious Kenya safari. If you seek to avoid large crowds of tourists, consider adding Laikipia to your trip itineraries.

The vast plateau is further divided into ranches or wildlife conservancies, housing several endangered species. Among its wildlife population are rare black rhinos and wild dogs, often seen sprawled across the plateau.

Lake Naivasha 

Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake, a two-hour drive from Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya. It is famous for its Pelican population, a contingent of Flamingos, and the African Fish Eagle.

The primary means of enjoying the wildlife is through a luxury boating safari on the lake. Also commonly sighted are Hippos floating in the water during the boating safari. This freshwater lake is a fantastic addition to safari itineraries.

Ol Pejeta is a private wildlife conservancy (in contrast to the national parks listed above) in Kenya that is home to a robust black rhino population. It serves as a sanctuary for the last two remaining northern white rhinos on the planet.

The conservancy also hosts other unique wildlife species. It is unique because one crosses the equator while driving to Ol Pejeta from Nairobi. Ol Pejeta lies just north of the equator, while Nairobi is located to the south.

Ol Pejeta spans 400 square kilometers and is located in the Laikipia region. Other wildlife species observed during a luxury Kenya safari in Ol Pejeta include lions, giraffes, and elephants. You should consider including Ol Pejeta in your itineraries to gain a deeper understanding of wildlife conservation.

It boasts pristine wilderness and is bordered by the Ewaso Ng’iro River. Samburu is famous for its frequent leopard sightings, often rivalling or even surpassing Masai Mara. Its forest landscape is exceptionally unique compared to most other wildlife parks in Kenya.

It is also celebrated for its Grevy’s zebra population, a distinct species from what is observed in Masai Mara and most other parks in Kenya. This is another park to include in your itineraries for more game viewing and fewer crowds.

A stratovolcano, Mount Longonot lies near the Great Rift Valley. The crater rim of the mountain offers remarkable views of the valley and Lake Naivasha. The mountain is famous for treks and hikes, activities that are often included in luxury Kenya Safari itineraries.

Kenya Safari and Beach Vacation Destination #3: Chale Island

Chale is remarkable for its arresting mangrove forests, secluded beach, and undeniably gorgeous azure waters. It is so breathtaking that we have dubbed it the Kenyan capital of magical sunsets. 

Kenya safaris and beach vacations spent here are anything but average. Guests can count on being enthralled by this striking coast and the blissful escapism it begets. 

Relax on the beach. Go on a life-changing sunset stroll along the beach. Swim, snorkel, dive, surf, and get that blood pumping with some water sports. Sample some of the most delicious Swahili delicacies in existence. Dance the night away at the Sands at Chale Island’s bar. Or simply sit on your room’s balcony and let that striking view do its magic!

Luxury Kenya Safari and Beach Holidays Destinations #4 - Malindi Beaches

For calming sparkling waters, coral reefs, and eye-catching white-sandy shorelines, Malindi beaches make a strong case for being Kenya’s most refined. Spend an all-inclusive Kenya beach holiday here and get to witness first-hand the beauty of Malindi’s Swahili-inspired architecture, perfect weather, and finger-licking seafood. 

Leave the comfort of your safari vehicle to explore the Sawa Sawa Dhow Excursions, and visit the Falconry of Kenya whose array of birds, and snakes will leave you awestruck.

Meanwhile, a full-day dhow trip exposes you to secluded beach spots, intimate seafood lunches, snorkeling, and -drum rolls please- a sundowner as you mull over all the wonders you’ve witnessed so far. Alternatively, explore the Ndoro Sculpture Garden and reconnect with nature and art.

Safari and Beach Holidays in Kenya Destination #5 - Wasini Island

Wasini is an island of blinding white beach sands and striking blue waters. She is a unique haven where tranquility permeates and towering palm trees seem to pierce clear blue skies. A Kenya beach safari to this exotic destination introduces you to her imperial ways.

Your mornings may be spent gazing at sunrise, afternoons spent devouring her shore, and evenings spent watching the sunset.

Swim, snorkel, dive, surf, laze around and enjoy hot and cold drinks as you take in the peace characteristic of this secluded island. Or visit the Kisite Mpunguti Marine National Park for a colorful display of thousands of fish species native to its waters. You can also stop by the Coral Garden for a mesmerizing exploration of its fossilized coral structures.

In the evenings, revel in the star washed African skies while on a moonlit walk along the beach.

All-Inclusive Kenya Beach Holidays Destination #6: Masai Mara

Let’s go over the numbers for this one. Over 90 large mammal species, over 450 bird species, 280 reptile species, and over 1000 plant species live in Masai Mara! One of the most exciting game reserves, Masai Mara features savannah lush grasslands and wide open spaces.

If that doesn’t strike you as sensational, we don’t know what will. 

For the longest time, the Masai Mara has been the star of the show for Kenya safaris and beach holidays. 

All-inclusive Kenya safaris and beach holidays in the Mara reveal a striking wonderland of astonishing grasslands, Michelin-starred restaurants, luxurious accommodations, and diverse wildlife.  

The park is also packed to the rafters with exciting activities. Apart from the game drives, think hot-air balloon safaris while on a luxury Kenya safari , Masai village visits, and guided nature walks. Enjoy a packed lunch or picnic lunch, venture on lion-tracking tours and adventurous hikes.

Safari and Beach Holidays in Kenya Destination # 7 - Amboseli National Park

Those on a Kenya safari and beach vacation will undoubtedly find resplendence and tranquility in the lush grasslands and elephant-swamped landscape of the Amboseli. In plain terms, the park is mesmerizing! and having the Kilimanjaro at its background sure does help the cause. 

Enjoy a slower, more thoughtful way of life on an early morning game drive as you weave through the hundreds of cheetahs, dik-dik, giraffes, zebras, hyraxes, buffaloes, and rhinos familiar to these lands. 

The snow capped Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the gems on a Kenya safari in Amboseli

Go and take a guided walk around the park and spend hours glimpsing at wetlands, Sulphur springs, dried-up lake beds, savannahs, and woodlands. 

Let us check you into one of her countless posh resorts, where you will be partaking in the finest things in life as soon as you set foot in the hotel’s doorstep. 

Go on sunset/ sunrise horse rides around the park watching games en route to your destination as animals arrive in droves. Watch the wildlife quench its thirst at the lodge watering hole or visit the different watering spots across the park from the comfort of a safari vehicle. Your options are virtually endless. Please contact your tour manager for a detailed list of options.

Safari and Beach Holidays in Kenya Destination #8 - Tsavo National Parks

If you ever find yourself wandering around Voi, make sure to stop over the Tsavo National Parks , a sprawling, sensual duo known for their beauty and serenity. Your first marvel should be the Tsavo East national park, a sensational tourist magnet best known for its dust-red elephants, 300km Yatta Plateau (the world’s most extended lava flow), and Galana River. 

Drive around the Galana and uncover a host of other wildlife, including hippos, rhinos, waterbucks, lions, crocodiles, lesser kudu, and gerenuk. Go bird watching, trekking, or camping. Take a break, and find a scenic spot in the park for a picnic lunch as you devour the magnificent scenery around you. 

Then, in the spirit of saving the best for last, head over to the Tsavo West national park on the second day and get to uncover an inspiring world of open grasslands, acacia woodlands, riverine forests, and scrublands. 

Let the Mzima Springs blow your mind with the slow pace of its crystal-clear refreshing waters. Relish the sight of buffaloes, hippos, lions, elephants, cheetahs, leopards, and zebras. Discover bird species you never even thought existed. Go hiking, on walks, or do cave exploration.

If you happen to be a geology buff, you will also be treated to breathtaking sights of one of the world’s largest lava flows, known as the Shetani (devil) lava flows.  These are located on your way from Tsavo West National park as you head to Amboseli .

Although the Tsavo West national park is located in an otherwise dry landscape, you nonetheless have a great chance of spotting protected wildlife in the semi desert shrubland. After your adventurous time, end your day at Tsavo West on a high note with an epic sundowner.

As far as accommodations are concerned, the Kilaguni Serena safari lodge and the Ashnil Aruba Lodge are some of your best bets at a great value African experience. Kilaguni Serena safari lodge features a traditionally thatched restaurant for an authentic Kenyan experience.

Both lodges also offer traditional African cuisine alongside an international menu. Another viable five star lodge is found at a private Taita hills sanctuary, known as the Salt Lick Game Lodge.

All-Inclusive Kenya Beach Holidays Destination #9 Lake Nakuru National Park

Some 166 kms northwest of Nairobi lies the lovely Lake Nakuru National Park , a stunning nature preserve that thrives with wildlife birds and enthralling sights. Here, guests are met by an inexplicable surreal landscape that is an incredible mix of picturesque ridges, bushy grasslands, and eye-catching escarpments.   

Go on a walk around the lake, and catch a glimpse of the thousands of flamingos for which the park is most known. You will love them- their mannerism, swiftness, and the way they form a pink carpet on the water surface. 

There are also game drives to be enjoyed, where you will encounter most of the plains animals such as zebras, rhino, leopards, and lions. Other activities at the Lake Nakuru national park include picnics, hikes, and bird watching excursions.

Kenya Beach and Safari Holiday Packages Destination #10 - Ol Pejeta Conservancy

The Ol Pejeta is a world of serenity and unmatched beauty- from its astonishingly beautiful landscape to its wildlife and top-notch accommodation facilities. It provides a luxury Kenya safari like no other.

Across its 36,400 hectares of lush grasslands comes countless opportunities to engage in some of the most rewarding wildlife viewings you might ever come across. 

Go on afternoon game drives and meet two of the world’s only remaining northern white rhinos. Also present are scores of giraffes, elephants, cheetahs, leopards, and a colorful host of countless bird species. 

Besides exciting wildlife spotting opportunities, the park offers you spectacular scenery to be enjoyed and an enormous activity catalog to keep you on your toes. You can go for game drives, horseback riding, walks, cycling, lion tracking, bird watching or intimate picnic lunches and dinners.

Safari and Beach Holidays in Kenya Destination #11 - Samburu National Park

Those accustomed to the hustle and bustle of the city will appreciate Samburu’s quietness and the dramatic blend of all the natural wonders around it. It is one of the few luxury Kenya safari destinations , rivaled only by the Masai Mara. 

The Samburu national park features savannah grasslands as well as extensive plains dotted with unspoiled palm groves and riverine forests.

On an afternoon game drive in Samburu, you are sure to encounter the Samburu Special Five- from the Grevy zebra, Beisa oryx, Somali ostrich, gerenuk to the reticulated giraffe. 

You will enjoy stopping at the Ewaso Nyiro for hours and watching as wildlife trickles in one by one for a sip of its murky waters. 

You will love the ambience, the serenity of it, and how the time seems to move slower here. On your last day, sit at your lodge’s dining room enjoying a leisurely bush breakfast with perhaps a last glimpse of the park’s animals roaming furtively about. A bush breakfast is my favorite activity while on a Kenya safari to Samburu game reserve .

Best time to visit kenya for a safari.

For an unparalleled wildlife safari experience combined with the perfect beach getaway, the best time to visit Kenya for safari is generally from early July to late September. This timeframe aligns with Kenya’s dry season, which also extends across East Africa. Notably, it coincides with the Great Migration, a breathtaking spectacle where vast herds of wildebeest and zebras traverse the Mara River on their journey from the Serengeti to Kenya’s Masai Mara. Additional favorable months for a Kenya safari include June and the stretch between December and February. Even October and November, characterized by Kenya’s short rains, provide a suitable window for safari enthusiasts.

Conversely, April and May mark Kenya’s long rainy season, resulting in potentially impassable roads. Despite this, in parks and well-equipped regions, this period presents a unique opportunity for budget-friendly safaris. The lush greenery and awe-inspiring topography during the long rainy season contribute to a distinct and enchanting safari experience. Planning a visit during this time allows for a more economical safari adventure while reveling in the vibrant landscapes that Kenya has to offer.

Where to visit on a Kenya Safari

Our Kenya safari tours will take you to the most famous parks in Kenya and Africa at large including the Masai Mara the where the largest animal migration; the Wildebeests Migration also known as ‘ The Great Migration ’ happens every year seeing thousands upon thousands of visitors who stream the area to witness the wildlife pilgrimage.

Apart from the Masai Mara we also arrange safari tours to the Amboseli National Park famous for the Postcard views of large elephants with the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro as the backdrop, but also the Tsavo West and Tsavo East National Park of the legendary man-eating lions. Other places of interest where our Kenya safaris will take you include Lake Nakuru National Park and other rift valley lake including Lake Baringo , Lake Elmenteita and the Lake Bogoria where you will be amazed by the colorful flocks of flamingoes among other aquatic and non-aquatic birds.

Discover the Beauty and Diversity of Tourism in Kenya: Everything You Need to Know

A s a travel enthusiast, I have always been fascinated by the diverse cultures, wildlife, and landscapes that Kenya has to offer. From the vast savannahs to the pristine beaches, Kenya is a destination that has something for everyone. I will take you through everything you need to know about tourism in Kenya, from popular destinations to safety tips for tourists.

Kenya, a country in East Africa, is renowned for its abundance of wildlife, cultural variety, and beautiful landscapes. About 10% of the country’s gross domestic product comes from the tourist industry. Cultural heritage sites and monuments throughout the country attest to the country’s long and illustrious history, which dates back to before colonial rule. Kenya’s diverse animal population is a big selling point for the country. The “Big Five”—lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and buffalo—are all native to the country. Giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, hyenas, and wildebeests are just some of the other animals that can be seen in the country’s national parks and game reserves.

Kenya’s Most Popular Tourist Attractions

Kenya is home to a diverse selection of tourism hotspots, each offering something special to its visitors. Located in the country’s southwestern corner, the Maasai Mara National Reserve is a famous tourist hotspot. The reserve is well-known for its dramatic yearly wildebeest migration, which occurs between July and October.

The Amboseli National Park is a famous tourist spot because of its proximity to Mount Kilimanjaro. The park is well-known for its massive elephant herds, and visitors can also take in stunning vistas of the surrounding mountain range and its abundant animals. Lamu Island is a fantastic place to go sightseeing if you value cultural travel. The island off the coast of Kenya is home to the ethnically and culturally diverse Swahili people. Travellers can stroll the island’s quaint streets, shop at the island’s local markets, and dine on delectable Swahili fare.

Kenya’s Game Reserves and National Parks

Thanks to its more than its 50 national parks and game reserves, Kenya is home to a vast diversity of wildlife. The following are among the world’s most visited game reserves and national parks:

  • National Park of Maasai Mara
  • The Amboseli Game Reserve
  • The National Park of Tsavo
  • The Park of Lake Nakuru
  • Park of Aberdare
  • Protected Area of Samburu, Kenya

Visitors can tailor their itineraries to their interests by picking and choosing from the various parks and reserves, each of which offers something special.

Safaris and Animals in Kenya

The country’s diverse animal population is a big selling point for the country. The “Big Five” animals—lions, leopards, elephants, and rhinoceroses—can all be seen by tourists, along with giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, hyenas, and wildebeests.

The greatest way to see Kenya’s wildlife is on a safari, and there are many different kinds to select from. The most common kind of safari is a “game drive,” during which tourists ride along in specially equipped vehicles through the park or reserve in search of wildlife.

Some parks and reserves even provide walking safaris, where guests can go on foot tours of the park alongside an expert ranger. You can also go on a safari in a hot air balloon for a bird’s-eye view of the park and its inhabitants.

Safaris in Kenya: A Cultural Detour

Over forty distinct ethnic groups call Kenya home, each with its own history and traditions. Travelers interested in learning more about Kenya’s rich cultural heritage can do so by visiting cultural villages and participating in cultural events.

The Kit Mikayi rock formations are considered a sacred spot by the Luo people, while the Gede Ruins are the remains of a Swahili village from the 13th century.

Vacationing on Kenya’s Beaches

Some of the world’s most stunning beaches may be found along Kenya’s 480-kilometer coastline. Beachgoers can unwind in the sand and sun or try their hand at water sports like snorkelling or scuba diving.

Here are just a few of Kenya’s most well-known shores:

  • Beach of Diani
  • Beach of Watamu
  • Coast of Nyali
  • This is Bamburi Beach.
  • Beach at Malindi

Marine parks, such as the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine National Park, can be visited by boat, and are home to more than 200 different species of fish and dolphins.

The Best of Kenyan Adventure Travel

Kenya is a great destination for thrill-seekers because of the variety of extreme sports available. Hiking, mountain climbing, bungee jumping, and white water rafting are just few of the many outdoor pursuits available to tourists.

Hiking and mountaineering opportunities abound atop Mount Kenya, Africa’s second-highest peak. There are many ways up the mountain, and they all have their own special problems.

White water rafting is a popular tourist activity on Kenya’s longest river, the Tana. The river’s rapids vary in difficulty from grade 2 to 5, making it a good choice for both novice and seasoned rafters.

Ecologically Sound Vacations in Kenya

Kenya’s tourism sector relies heavily on eco-friendly practice’s. Many government-run projects and programmes in the country encourage ecotourism and environmental protection.

The Maasai Mara-Serengeti Ecosystem is a transboundary conservation area that spans both Kenya and Tanzania and is widely regarded as one of the most effective conservation efforts in the world. The project’s overarching goal is to encourage eco-friendly travel to the region while also protecting its natural resources.

Eco-Tourism Kenya encourages businesses in the tourism industry to adopt sustainable practice’s, and the Kenya Wildlife Service oversees the country’s national parks and game reserves.

Tourism Peak Season in Kenya

When you should travel to Kenya for a vacation depends on what you hope to get out of your trip. March through May and again in October through December are the wettest months in the country.  Safaris are most enjoyable from June through October, the dry season. Wildlife is easy to spot at this time of year since they congregate around water.

Between the months of December through March, the weather along the shore is hot and dry, making it an ideal time to travel there. The seaside is pleasant to visit in July and August as well, when temperatures are milder and humidity is lower.

Organising a Vacation to Kenya

Tourists visiting Kenya should give serious thought to a number of details before setting off on their journey.

To visit Kenya, tourists need a passport, a visa, and, if they haven’t already had one, a yellow fever vaccination certificate. You should also learn about the resorts, campers, and motels that will suit your needs.

It’s crucial to think about the type of safari you want to go on, the location of the park or reserve you want to go to, and how long you want your safari to be. Travelers should also do their homework before selecting a tour company to ensure they have a reliable and knowledgeable guide.

Advice for Travelers’  Security in Kenya

Even though Kenya is a relatively risk-free destination for tourists, you should still exercise common sense and take measures to protect yourself. Avoid going out at night, especially in populated locations, and never flash your cash or other valuables.

Safari-goers should listen to their guides and stay a safe distance from the animals at all times. Crocodiles and hippos may be present in the water, thus tourists should stay out of the water.

All in all, Kenya is a fantastic vacation spot since it offers a wide variety of activities and attractions. Visitors can expect to have a pleasant and safe time in the country if they prepare ahead of time and keep in mind some basic safety measures. I think everyone should travel to Kenya and experience the country’s rich culture and natural wonders firsthand.
