Kenya is a relatively safe country to travel in and has a well developed road network, although the state of the roads may test the resolve of any traveller. Rail and bus travel is easy but advice should be sought before embarking on any journey.
Malaria is prevalent in Kenya so precautions should be taken. There have been outbreaks of Rift Valley Fever in the past but these have been in areas where tourists do not visit.
As in most African countries, there is a huge range of cheap souvenirs to be purchased along the roadside. These are handmade but mass-produced, so always check the quality before buying. Materials include ebony, soapstone and ivory.
