Kenya is, without doubt, a stunningly beautiful country. From the sands of the east coast lapped by the waters of the Indian Ocean to the little-visited Turkana in the north, Kenya offers an extraordinary variety of landscapes, charming and friendly people, a rich and fascinating culture, and of course, world-renowned wildlife experiences.
The vast open plains, endless skies, high density of animals, and the romance of films like Out of Africa make Kenya the perfect place to begin your safari. The word “safari” itself means “journey” in Swahili - and this is truly a journey through some of the most spectacular scenery on earth.

Wildlife and Natural Wonders

The Masai Mara, Kenya’s most famous game reserve, offers unforgettable all-year-round game viewing. Together with the Serengeti in Tanzania, it hosts the legendary Great Migration (July–October), when nearly two million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle thunder across the plains in search of new pastures. Watching a wildebeest river crossing - as predators await on the far banks - is one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on the planet.
Beyond the Mara, every reserve brings something unique:
  • Samburu Game Reserve, home to rare northern species such as the reticulated giraffe and Grevy’s zebra.
  • Amboseli National Park, where vast elephant herds roam under the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro.
  • Aberdares National Park, with forested highlands, waterfalls, and lodges where guests can watch wildlife visit floodlit waterholes through the night.
  • Laikipia Plateau, a mosaic of private conservancies blending conservation and community life.
  • Mount Kenya, the snow-capped giant straddling the equator, is a paradise for trekkers and climbers alike.
  • Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha, jewels of the Great Rift Valley, fare amous for flamingos, rhinos, leopards, and spectacular birdlife.
The Rift Valley itself is one of the world’s great natural wonders — stretching from north to south across Kenya, its escarpments, lakes, and highlands offering endless scenic beauty and adventure.

The Coast and Island

​Kenya’s coastline offers a completely different rhythm — tropical, historic, and deeply relaxing.
  • Mombasa, the country’s coastal hub, blends African, Arab, and European influences, from the bustling Old Town to the turquoise waters of its beaches.
  • Diani Beach, just south of Mombasa, is famed for its white sands, clear waters, and laid-back charm.
  • Lamu Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the oldest Swahili settlement in East Africa — a magical place of narrow lanes, carved doors, dhow sails, and centuries-old traditions.
  • Malindi and Watamu, north of Mombasa, are havens for snorkeling, diving, and turtle conservation.

​ People and Culture


The most well-known tribes in Kenya are the Maasai and Samburu Warriors.
  • The Maasai, who live in the semi-arid Rift Valley of Kenya and Tanzania, are proud pastoralists who depend on cattle for sustenance and status.
  • The Samburu, close relatives of the Maasai, live north of the equator in Kenya’s Rift Valley. 
Kenya’s people are as diverse as its landscapes - from the Swahili culture of the coast to the Kikuyu farmers of the highlands and the Turkana communities of the north, each bringing its own language, customs, and warmth.
