Kenya is one of the most popular destinations for safaris in the world! It is famous for its 'Out of Africa' scenic beauty, diverse cultures and abundant wildlife. The coastline and tropical beaches are equally inviting.
The wildlife is the prime attraction of Kenya safaris, which take place in some of Africa's best-known national parks, including the Masai Mara, Tsavo, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru.
A Kenya safari contains a mosaic of different cultures and traditions. The people have the natural ability to make every traveller feel at home - Karibu, a Swahili word meaning 'welcome', is often heard.
Naturally, the Great Wildebeest Migration is a huge attraction for many visitors wanting to safari in Kenya. This mass movement of hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti in Tanzania, to Kenya's Masai Mara and back, is a phenomenal sight.
Timing your trip to coincide with the migration is tricky - the exact moment when the animals will pass through a specific area depends on highly unpredictable factors such as when the rains fall. For more details about how to time your trip with the migration, see our migration guide here.
But rest assured, even if you don't have the luxury of time to play with, your game viewing experiences in Kenya will be rich and varied at any time of the year. Read more about when to go to Kenya here.
A safari is usually the last word in colonial style and you'll have the choice of staying in a range of accommodation in Kenya - anything from mobile safari tented camps, to fine old lodges steeped in tradition, to modern hotels designed to blend in with their safari surroundings.
Taking a Kenya safari tour is a great way to get a good overview of this large country. Our Kenya tours vary in length and either remain within the Kenya borders or incorporate Kenya as part of a larger itinerary.
Why not take the 14-day Masai Mara & Gorilla Safari and combine your Kenya safari with Gorilla tracking in Uganda or try our Best of Tanzania & Kenya safari and get to see the best reserves Kenya and Tanzania have to offer.
