Kenya

Kenya is probably one of the few countries that come to your mind when you think about Africa and the country *never disappoint* you in any aspect. Abundant wildlife, thick forests, snow-capped mountains, welcoming tribes… you name it.

Kenya is a country of diverse ethnic groups and tribes – Kikuyu, Masai, Samburu, Turkana, Swahili, to name a few. This vast diversity makes Kenya famous for its handicrafts as while buying souvenirs, tourists always have plentiful options to choose from. Not only handicrafts, but the options for traditional food is also quite ample.

dont sell handicrafts on line 2 of the article.

Watching wildlife on an exciting jungle safari is certainly the main reason why you’re planning a trip to Kenya. If you’re visiting between July-August or November-December, we would strongly suggest you start your adventure witnessing Masai Mara’s great wildebeest and zebra migration. Masai Mara National Reserve is easily the top highlight in any Kenyan itinerary. Rich wildlife aside, you can explore many Masai villages around the national reserve to know more about their distinctive rituals and customs. Amboseli National Park holds another grand sight that you should definitely witness, where you can capture large herds of elephants right below the highest peak of Africa, Mt. Kilimanjaro on your camera lens. Continue your journey to the wild and reach the twin national parks of Tsavo – Tsavo East & Tsavo west. The Tsavo West National Park is the more popular among the two due to its rich lion population and diverse landscape. 

Moving to the central part of the country, you will come across Mount Kenya national park. FYI, Mount Kenya is the 2nd highest mountain in Africa and is considered a sacred mountain by the Kikuyu people, the largest ethnic group in Kenya. Climbing the mountain is sure to give you a great adrenaline rush. Heading west, make sure to charge your camera to capture the majestic sight of thousands of flamingos nesting along the shores of Lake Nakuru (also a national park). Next stop Hell’s Gate National Park offers a different wildlife watching experience. Due to the rare existence of any big carnivores, walking and cycling tours are the best way to explore this park. You can walk to the nearby crater rim of Mt Longonot for some amazing views.

If you think wildlife is the only thing that you’re going to experience in Kenya, let us tell you how wrong you are! Visit Lamu Archipelago, in the south-eastern part of the country and get mesmerised by its tropical island vibes. The main island, Lamu is a relaxed little island. From the UNESCO designated Lamu Town, a medieval town with beautiful architecture to some of the loveliest beaches in Kenya, the island has a lot to offer to visitors. Swahili culture has a *deep root* in this archipelago.

Kenya’s capital, Nairobi, is East Africa’s most cosmopolitan city yet has still managed to keep its cultural life intact. The city offers great restaurants and vibrant nightlife. The nearby, Nairobi National park is the most accessible national park in the country. It offers abundant wildlife. Mombasa is another city that is known for its history. The city is a perfect mixture of Arabain, African and Indian culture.

Though English is one of their two national languages (the other one is Swahili), outside big cities, people will hardly understand the language. So learning a few Swahili words and phrases before starting your journey is always a good idea.

    • However, with a fabulous national park on its doorstep, some wildlife-centric attractions, the excellent National Museum and a series of quirky sights, Nairobi’s reality – like that of so many places with a bad reputation – will often come as a pleasant surprise.
    • Nairobi National Park – 
      • Kenya’s most accessible yet incongruous safari experience.
      • Set on the city’s southern outskirts, Nairobi National Park (at 117 sq km, one of Africa’s smallest) has abundant wildlife that can, in places, be viewed against a backdrop of city skyscrapers and planes coming in to land – it’s one of the only national parks on earth bordering a capital city.

  19. Masai Mara National Reserve –
    • This huge expanse of gently rolling grassland – specked with flat-topped acacia trees and trampled by massive herds of zebras and wildebeest – is the ultimate African cliché
    • But for once the reality lives up to the image and the Masai Mara, which comprises not just the famous reserve but also around a dozen community conservancies, several group ranches and numerous Maasai villages, is for many people not just the highlight of their Kenyan adventure but the very reason they came in the first place.
  20. Amboseli National Park –

    • To this day the tribe keeps its doors open to the face of the sacred mountain, and some still come to its lower slopes to offer prayers
    • Mt Kenya also has the rare honour of being both a Unesco World Heritage Site and a Unesco Biosphere Reserve.
    • In the past, 12 glaciers wore Mt Kenya down to 5199m worth of dramatic remnants, but today it’s the ice itself that is under threat, disappearing under increased temperatures and taking with it crystalline caves and snowy crevasses
    • The highest peaks of Batian (5199m) and Nelion (5188m) can only be reached by mountaineers with technical skills
    • Point Lenana (4985m), the third-highest peak, can be reached by trekkers and is the usual goal for most mortals. 
  23. Kakamega Forest National Reserve –
    • All that’s now left in Kenya of the massive Guineo–Congolian rainforest that once covered much of western Kenya, the Kakamega Forest National Reserve, though seriously degraded, is unique in Kenya and contains plants, animals and birds that occur nowhere else in the country
    • The reserve is especially good for birders, but is also home to several primates, including de Brazza’s monkeys, colobus monkeys, black-cheeked-white-nosed monkeys and Sykes monkeys.
  24. Loyangalani –
    • Standing in utter contrast to the dour desert shades surrounding it, tiny Loyangalani assaults all your senses in one crazy explosion of clashing colours, feather headdresses and blood-red robes.

  25. Kisite Marine National Park –
    • Off the south coast of Wasini, this gorgeous marine park, which also incorporates the Mpunguti Marine National Reserve and the two tiny Penguti islands, is one of the best in Kenya

  26. Tsavo West National Park –
    • Tsavo West is one of Kenya’s larger national parks (9065 sq km), covering a huge variety of landscapes from swamps, natural springs and rocky peaks to extinct volcanic cones, rolling plains and sharp outcrops dusted with greenery.
  27. Hell’s Gate National Park –
    • Dry, dusty and dramatic but infinitely peaceful, Hell’s Gate is that rare Kenyan park made for bicycles and exploring on foot.
    • Large carnivores are very rare indeed, so you can cycle past grazing zebras and bison, spot rock hyraxes or klipspringers as they clamber up inclines and watch dust clouds swirl in the wind.
  28. Lake Nakuru National Park –
    • Just two hours’ drive from Nairobi, Lake Nakuru is among Kenya’s finest national parks.
    • Flanked by rocky escarpments, pockets of forest and at least one waterfall, the park is gorgeous year-round and is home to black and white rhinos, lions, leopards, hippos and giraffes. 
    • The southern end of the lake is the best place to see wildlife, away from the busy city of Nakuru, which borders the park’s northern extent.
  29. Longonot National Park –
    • One of the shapeliest peaks in all the Rift Valley, Mt Longonot (2776m) and its serrated crater rim offer fabulous views.
    • The dormant volcano rises 1000m above the baking-hot valley floor and was formed 400,000 years ago; it last erupted in the 1860s
  30. Laikipia Plateau –
    • Set against the backdrop of Mt Kenya, the Laikipia plateau extends over 9500 sq km of semi-arid plains, dramatic gouges and acacia-thicket-covered hills.
    • This patchwork of privately owned ranches, wildlife conservancies and small-scale farms has become one of the most important areas for biodiversity in the country, boasting wildlife densities second only to those found in the Masai Mara.
  31. Meru National Park –
    • it has all the essential ingredients for a classic safari destination with fine accommodation, excellent prospects for seeing lions and rhinos and a landscape that incorporates Hemingway-esque green hills and fast-flowing streams bordered by riverine forests, baobab trees and doum palms.
    • The advantage of being one of Kenya’s best-kept secrets is plain to see – you’re likely to have much of it all to yourself.
  32. Watamu –
    • Laid-back little Watamu looks out over the Indian Ocean and enjoys a blinding white-sand beach and a soft breeze coming off the water.
    • It’s a gorgeous slice of coastline and one that includes its own marine national park.
  33. Aberdares –
    • The cloud-kissed contours of the brown-and-grey slopes of the Aberdare Range, stretch 160km from South Kinangop, east of Naivasha, up to the Laikipia Escarpment northwest of Nyahururu
  34. Mt Elgon National Park –
    • Straddling the Ugandan border and peaking with Koitoboss (4187m), Kenya’s second-highest peak, and Uganda’s Wagagai (4321m), the slopes of Mt Elgon are a sight indeed
    • While there are plenty of interesting wildlife and plants here, the real reason people visit Mt Elgon National Park is to stand atop the summit high above Kenya and Uganda.
  35. Mombasa –
    •  a melting pot of languages and cultures from all sides of the Indian Ocean, waits like an exotic dessert for travellers who make it to Kenya’s coastline
    • Having more in common with Dakar or Dar es Salaam than Nairobi, Mombasa’s blend of India, Arabia and Africa can be intoxicating,
    • East Africa’s biggest and most cosmopolitan port
  36. Loyangalani –
    • Standing in utter contrast to the dour desert shades surrounding it, tiny Loyangalani assaults all your senses in one crazy explosion of clashing colours, feather headdresses and blood-red robes.
    • Overlooking Lake Turkana and surrounded by small ridges of pillow lava (evidence that this area used to be underwater), the sandy streets of this one-camel town are a meeting point of the great northern tribes: Turkana and Samburu, Gabbra and El Molo.
  37. Naivasha –
    • this small country town is the gateway to Lake Naivasha
