Why
safari in Kenya?
- Travel to Kenya is much more
than safari or Africa holidays.
Traveling to Kenya means traveling to a country that offers
incredible diversity in landscapes, culture, wildlife and
activities, which leads to an almost infinite number of
opportunities for experiences. The fact that the country also
has a very good infrastructure means that on its Kenya trip, it
can be relatively effortless to get around to the many different
areas of the country.
Traditional wildlife safari is too many, the primary that travel
to Kenya contains. But traveling to Kenya is much more than
that. Here visitors also get tropical rain-forest, beautiful
beaches, deserts, high mountains, fascinating culture and
several UNESCO protected historic sites.
The word safari comes from the Arabic word 'Safar', which means
'a journey' - in a broad sense. Traveling to Kenya is 'safari'
in more than one sense with the many varied experiences offered.
Kenya's UNESCO Cultural Heritage
Travel to Kenya gives visitors the opportunity to experience 6
unique sites, protected by UNESCO's world heritage. Places
witnessing Kenya's cultural, historical, natural and
archaeological value.
The 6 UNESCO protected sites are:
*Lamus Old Town. Recorded in 2001.
*Fort Jesus in Mombasa. Recorded in 2001.
*Lake Kenya Lake Bogoria, Lake Nakuru and Lake Elementaita
*Lake Turkana National Parks. Recorded in 1997.
*Mt. Kenya National Park. Recorded in 1997.
*Mijikenda Kaya Forest
Many travel to Kenya for safari
There is no doubt that the vast majority of guests travel to
Kenya comes to see and experience the wildlife. Kenya is
undoubtedly one of the world's very best safaris, because it is
here that you can truly experience the huge animal flocks that
are often displayed on, for example. TV. But not only the
quantities, but also the diversity of animal and bird-life,
diffuse Kenya as a safari island from other safari countries.
Kenya is without a doubt the motherland of the safari.
Kenya offers a large number of safari and national parks, each
with their characteristics, both animal and natural. Here we
should mention the most important:
*Masai Mara National Park
*Samburu / Buffalo Springs National Park
*Amboseli National Park
*Tsavo East and West National Park
*Lake Nakuru National Park
Wild safaris in Kenya | Kenya safari tours
The border area between Kenya and Tanzania is the place for a
unique animal experience every year: the great wildlife. An
annual cycling trip, where millions of goats and zebras,
followed by predators, go between
Masai Mara and Serengeti
in Tanzania in search of nutritious food. Two large single
events stand out when the June / July animals pass the Mara
River and when in February they are in the Ndutu area of
Tanzania to calf. Gnu-calving in February.
Africa Holidays
- More trips to Kenya to be active
Water Sports
There are plenty of opportunities to be active on other fronts
than animal adventures. Kenya has a unique nature with rippling
rivers, beautiful lakes and, not least, access to the vast
Indian Ocean. Ideal setting for both motorized and non-motorized
water sports. Here we talk about White Water Rafting, Kite
Surfing, Big Game Fishing and Scuba Diving.
Golf
Should one be barely so wild and violent, one can travel to
Kenya also offer really good golfing opportunities. The weather
in Kenya is in many ways ideal for golf, all year round, so it's
not so bad that the country has several top golf courses.
Hiking / Hiking
Are you looking for a really active challenge, then the
opportunities are also present. Here are varied challenges
ranging from hiking to the top of
Mt. Kenya,
paragliding through the Kerio valley and wild biking at
Mt.
Longonot for mountaineering at Hell's Gate.
Central Kenya and The Great Rift Valley are unique areas for
hike and trek.
For the special occasion
Many travel to Kenya also for the very special occasion, for
example. honeymoons, wellness trips, etc. for here are lots of
amazing resorts that will be sublime for the purpose mentioned.
If you are interested in photography, Kenya is absolutely ideal
with opportunities for amazing animal and nature.
Many travel to Kenya for the culture
The African culture is unique and unique, and many travel to
Kenya also to experience this distinctive aspect. Kenya is home
to 42 different, unique cultures; cultures that help shape
Kenya's unique identity. You can experience the culture in
different ways by either choosing to live in a local village,
thus getting close to the locals or practicing the urban culture
in one of the country's major cities like Nairobi or Mombasa.
A stay in a village will be an experience for life. The perfect
way to be introduced to local culture and lifestyle. A village
stay is a reflection in the purest form of traditional culture.
Many who travel to Kenya combine with a beach holiday at the
coast
The healthy winds from the Indian Ocean as well as the clear
waters attract many who travel to Kenya. The perfect place to
relax and, in most cases, digest the sensational safari
experiences or other activities. By the Kenya coast you will
find long, beautiful sandy beaches and lots of fine resorts in
different price categories. So everyone can join.
The Kenya coast is traditionally divided into 4 main beach
areas:
*Diani Beach including Chale Island
*The northern coast
*Malindi & Watamu
*Lamu
People who travel to Kenya can thus have a wide range of
experiences, although animal experiences are often the focus.
Best time for Kenya travel
You can travel to Kenya all year long, but certain periods are
obviously better than others. Kenya typically has two rainy
hours; a long from March to May and a short from October to
November. The hot time in Kenya is in the summer months, where
the temperature easily reaches around 30 degrees or more. It is
also the best time for scuba diving, snorkeling and bathing in
general, because the ocean is typically quieter and clearer.
In the summer months there is winter in Kenya and the
temperature is at the pleasant end of about 20 degrees. It is
here during this period that you can experience the wildlife
crossing the Mara River. In
Nairobi there may be cool in the evening
during this period, why a lukewarm sweater can do wonders. The
same can be true of safari travel.
No one can wonder about the weather. The weather in these years
is very variable all over the globe, also in Kenya. So the above
is only guiding, based on historical observations.
Kenya is thus much more than safari.

Mount Kenya is Africa’s
second highest mountain at 5,199m (17,058
feet) and the highest of all Kenya
Mountains. Mount Kenya is roughly circular, about 60km across at the
200mm contour, where the steep font hills rise out of the gentler slopes
of the centered highlands. At the centre of the massif, the main peaks
rise sharply from around 4,500m to the main summit of Batian 5,199m,
Nelion 5,188m and point Lenana 4,985m. Other major summits on the
mountain include Point Piggott 4,957m, Point Dutton 4,885 and Point John
4,883m. Of the three main peaks (Batian, Lenana and Nelion), only point
Lenana can be reached by trekkers and the other two being only for
technical climbers. |

Africa's highest
mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro stands on featureless part of the East
African plateau, on the Tanzanian side of the Kenya border near Moshi,
side by side with the smaller Mount Meru. These mountains are extinct
volcanoes, with Kilimanjaro actually being the agglomeration of three
distinct volcanoes, Kibo (5896m/ 19,340 ft), Mwenzi (5,149 / 16,896 ft)
and Shira (3,962m / 13,000 ft). whose violent creation is geologically
associated with the creation of the Great Rift Valley, 100km to the
West. |

Mount Meru is Mount
Kilimanjaro's little sister, standing at 4,566m compared to 5,895m, but
is still an impressive freestanding volcano, which makes a superb four
day climb to the top. It last erupted in 1910 therefore can be
classified as an active volcano. The first Mount Meru ascent was made by Dr. Fritz
Jaeger, 1904. The town of Arusha lies at the base of Mount Meru
Trekking, loads of trek companies do this trek. Wild animals are
frequently found on this mountain therefore an armed ranger usually
accompanies the trekkers. |
