Kenya, As It's Meant To Be Seen

Masai Mara National Reserve

Kenya's flagship reserve dense predator populations year round and the dramatic Mara River crossings during the migration season.

Amboseli National Park

Large free roaming elephant herds set against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, just across the border in Tanzania.

Lake Nakuru National Park

A fenced rhino sanctuary (both black and white rhino) and in the right season, thousands of flamingos along the shoreline.

Tsavo East & West

Kenya's largest protected area, known for red-dust elephants, the Mzima Springs and dramatic lava rock landscapes.

Diani Beach & the Swahili Coast

Powder white sand, coral reefs for diving and snorkelling and dhow sailing trips out of Mombasa a natural add-on after a game drive.

Samburu National Reserve

Northern Kenya's drier landscapes hold species you won't see further south, plus a strong Samburu cultural presence.

Lake Naivasha & Hell's Gate

Boat rides among hippos and one of the few parks in Kenya where you can cycle or walk freely alongside wildlife.

Nairobi National Park

Lions and rhino within sight of the city skyline a good first or last stop, paired with the Giraffe Centre or the elephant nursery nearby.

January – March

Hot and mostly dry. Calving season for the wildebeest herds further south and excellent birdwatching across the Rift Valley lakes.

April – May

The long rains. Parks are quieter and greener, lodge rates drop, but some roads get harder going.

June – October

The dry season and peak game viewing. The wildebeest herds typically move into the Masai Mara and the river crossings draw crowds around July–September.

November – December

Short rains bring the landscape back to green. Good visibility, fewer vehicles at the sightings and a natural pairing with a Christmas beach stay on the coast.

Maasai Communities

Village visits around the Mara give a look at traditional homesteads, beadwork and the adumu jumping dance arranged directly with the community, not a staged stop.

Samburu Heritage

Close cousins of the Maasai in the north, the Samburu retain a distinct dress, language and pastoral way of life worth building a day around.

Swahili Coast Heritage

Fort Jesus in Mombasa and the Lamu Old Town UNESCO site trace centuries of Swahili, Arab and Portuguese trading history along the coast.
