1. Witness the Migration
The greatest show on earth can be viewed in Kenya for a few weeks every year when the Great Wildebeest Migration passes through the Masai Mara. Kenya is the home of the safari and the best way to experience the diversity is to stay at a lodge and view the animals from safari vehicles under the guidance of a trained ranger.
2. Take to the Sky
Another unique way of viewing game, and to experience the stunning scenery, is from a hot-air balloon. Balloon trips are offered in the Masai Mara and offer you incredible views far removed from the jostling game drive vehicles. The only noise is the wind; the only sight is Africa.
3. Cultural Visits
Cultural interaction is a big part of a Kenya safari but with many ethnic groups it is difficult to pin down a definitive culture. Because of their link to the reserves the Maasai and the Samburu are possibly the most accessible people to visitors and you will be able to interact with these proud and fascinating people. Read more about Kenya's culture, and the Maasai.
4. Kick back on Kenya's Beaches
Why not wash off the red dust of Africa with a few days on the beach? Kenya Beaches are the ideal destination for a beach vacation with fine sands, warm water and excellent water activities. With many countries a bush and beach vacation involves more than one country whereas in Kenya it is all wrapped up in one.
5. Climb Africa's Giants
Mount Kenya, in the Mount Kenya National Park and Forest Reserve, is the second highest point in Africa after Mount Kilimanjaro and it is a popular destination for climbers and nature lovers alike. The climb will take you through different habitats: rainforest and thick bamboo groves bring you to a land of lakes, rock and ice.
