5 Must-Do things
in Kenya
Kenya is one of the greatest tourist destinations... The excursions are quite reasonable, the country is densely packed with gorgeous national parks and scenery, and there are considerably more options for adventure than if you went on a safari in another country.
In Maasai Mara, look for the Big Five.
The Maasai Mara is part of the Serengeti ecosystem, which straddles the Tanzanian and Kenyan borders, where millions of animals wander freely over the plain. There are various types of creatures here, from the Big Five to rarer species like serval cats and elands.
A Maasai Village Visit
Most multi-day trips to the Maasai Mara will include a visit to a Maasai village where you can observe how the Maasais survive off their lands, how they built their mud dwellings, and why they had to migrate every three months due to termite infestations...
At Lake Nakura, look for black and white rhinos.
White rhinos abound at Lake Nakuru, and you can easily see them nibbling on grasses and shrubs along the main road. Unlike their near cousins, the black rhinos, they are very accustomed and are not afraid of people.
Take a boat safari on Lake Naivasha.
Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake not far from Lake Nakuru that is often included in a multi-day itinerary stop after seeing Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru, and it is where you may go on a boat safari.
Cycling through Hell's Gate National Park
Hell's Gate National Park is one of the few spots in the nation, if not the globe, where you may ride your bike throughout the park, surrounded by giraffes, buffalos, and zebras.
Must-See places
in Kenya
Kenya is almost synonymous with the phrase "safari." Few locations on the earth evoke such a sense of adventure and romance. The variety of things to do in Kenya awes visitors, with witnessing the country's plentiful wildlife topping the list.
Amboseli National Reserve
The reserve is one of Africa's greatest sites to see enormous herds of elephants up close. Other animals regularly seen in the park include lions and cheetahs, as well as giraffes, impalas, elands, waterbuck, gazelles, and over 600 bird species.
Lamu Island
Lamu, a little island northeast of Mombasa, has old-world charm. Lamu Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is Kenya's oldest continuously inhabited village, going back to the 12th century.
Mombasa
Mombasa attracts a diverse range of tourists. It is also Kenya's second most populous city and major port. British, Portuguese, Arab, Indian, and Asian immigrants contribute to the diverse cultural mix, and their impact can be seen in the architecture and food.
Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Ol Pejeta Conservancy is located about 200 kilometers north of Nairobi, near Mount Kenya National Park, and is ideal for close-up animal experiences. At this 90,000-acre private wildlife reserve, conservation and sustainability are paramount.
Diani Beach
Enjoy the warm weather and a breathtaking vista of the palm-lined coastline and pristine white beaches at Mombasa's Diani Beach. This 10-kilometer-long beach, which stretches from the Congo River in the north to Galu Beach in the south, is one of the best spots to visit in Kenya.
Must-Try food
in Kenya
Kenyan meals are one of Eastern Africa's most unusual and exciting culinary surprises, combining earthy indigenous recipes with the fire and spice of diverse Asian influences.
Mahindi Choma
In most regions of Kenya, mahindi choma is a popular roadside treat. It's corn on the cob grilled over an open charcoal fire and served with a chile or lime spice.
Mutura
Kenyan mutura is similar to black pudding in Ireland or morcilla in Spain, and a vacation to Kenya would be incomplete without sampling the country's distinctive blood sausage.
Kachumbari
Kachumbari, a salsa consisting of tomatoes, onions, and chillies, is perhaps the most prevalent side dish for most Kenyan dinners. Avocado might be a strong candidate for the title of side dish kingpin.
Must-Pack
for Kenya
Our packing list for your Kenya vacation is provided below. We wish you a relaxing trip...
Adaptor plug
When traveling, we suggest that you pack a universal adaptor that is compatible with the country you are going.

Sunglasses
At some time throughout the day, the sun will be in your face. Wearing decent shades can help safeguard your eyes.
Backpack
For daytime travel, always bring a smaller bag.
Rain coat
Bring a raincoat, particularly if you want to go for a stroll or trek in the nature.

Kenya is a magnificent African nation. There are safaris in the larger parks, such as the Masai Mara, but there are also many other things to see and do, such as Diani Beach, Mount Kenya, Lake Naivasha, and the view of Kilimanjaro from Amboseli. After two visits there, I decided to devote an entire essay to preparing for a cheap package Kenya, with a practical and comprehensive guide to assist you if you want to go!
If you are traveling through numerous countries, staying for an extended period of time, or residing on the African continent, you may also get to Kenya by automobile or by 4x4. Tanzania, Uganda, and Ethiopia all share land boundaries. The paperwork may be a touch lengthy at times, but there are no major concerns to be had (better to speak English though, otherwise it might be complicated to make yourself understood). Just make sure you have enough cash and all of the relevant paperwork for the formality.
Kenya has two distinct seasons: the dry season and the rainy season. There is a first dry season from December to March (similar to summer) and a second one from July to October since it is near to the equator and borders the Indian Ocean (it is a bit like winter). Summer temperatures in the middle of the day may reach 40 degrees, but winter temperatures "only" reach 30 degrees. That is to say, the word "winter" should be used with caution! At night, the temperature averages 20 degrees in the winter and 25 degrees in the summer. That is the reason why this is important to choose an appropriate season for your Kenya holidays.
There are two rainy seasons in between the dry seasons. A large one from April to June (similar to Tanzania) and a little one from November to December (also like in Tanzania). The sceneries change dramatically depending on the flow of water, from arid yellow savannah to vivid green woods. There are a lot of people in July and August since it is peak vacation season and the weather is nice! January, February, and March are also wonderful months to visit Kenya because, although it is warmer, there are less people.
A journey to Kenya is great for people who wish to explore Africa's splendours. It is a wildlife Eden and an ideal place for safari tours of any duration. Adults and children alike may hike the paths of the country's wonderful national parks and reserves, which are home to buffalo, rhinoceros, elephants, lions, and other animals. A holidays Kenya would also appeal to those who like the great outdoors. The nation, which is located on the Great Rift Valley, has spectacular geological scenery, such as Lake Magadi, which has surreal hues, and Mount Elgon, which has silver waterfalls. Spend three nights at Diani Beach, Malindi, Mombasa, or another white sand beach surrounding the cerulean seas of the Indian Ocean to cap off a journey to Kenya. Kenya's many museums and monuments are also worthwhile visits. Fans will find joy in local handicrafts, such as Maasai necklaces and Swahili jewellery at various costs, which may be found in a village shop or market.
Mount Kenya might provide some respite from a journey to Kenya. While ascending this peak, Africa's tallest, is reserved for experienced mountaineers, going to its foot is open to anyone and provides an entirely different tourist experience in Kenya. Watch baboons, raptors, and other wildlife from bamboo gardens to alpine woods.
Going on safari in Kenya, or any other African nation, is a common childhood fantasy. And with good reason: seeing wild creatures in their natural habitat, in the midst of magnificent surroundings, are experiences we hope we might have one day!
A safari is clearly not a zoo visit. On the one hand, we only observe the creatures that we encounter. On the other hand, not all species are collected in the same spot, and it will be required to visit many parks to observe a greater variety of species.
