When you think of Kenya; the first thing that comes to mind is the scenic vast plains of the Rift Valley, the breathtaking migrations of the Wildebeest in the Mara and the captivating sunsets of the coastal beaches. Kenya is one of the best places anywhere in Africa for ticking off the Big Five: lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino. A good short safari combination for those hoping to see all these charismatic creatures would be Maasai Mara National Reserve.
From seeing the wildebeest mega-herds move into the Maasai Mara and Amboseli’s legendary elephant herds against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro to the majestic leopards of Samburu, Kenya will not disappoint. Kenya is a holiday destination that offers incredible natural beauty, soul-stirring cultural encounters, sensational game viewing and, of course, the thrills and spills of the Wildebeest Migration. No wonder it’s the birthplace of safari travel!
