Raw Beauty. Diverse Geography. Greatest Destination for Wildlife.

Kenya’s raw beauty and sweeping plains bewitch even the most seasoned of visitors to Africa. Synonymous with stunning panoramas and the safari experience, this remarkable destination offers adventure and activity in equal measure: Unrivalled game viewing in the Maasai Mara; camel riding through the Northern Frontier District; hiking in the central highlands; fly fishing on high altitude lakes; and snorkeling, diving and deep sea fishing on the coast – an awe-inspiring plethora of travel choices.

Bisected by the equator on Africa’s east coast, Kenya’s diverse geography provokes wide variations in temperature, rainfall and humidity. The East African Rift Valley runs through the country from top to bottom, past giant volcanoes, hot springs and flamingo covered lakes, as well as Mount Kenya, the second highest peak in Africa. In relation to Kenya’s size, its assorted landscape is unparalleled and the multitude of national parks and reserves all have their own unique attractions. Marine reserves boast coral reef gardens, palm-fringed beaches and turquoise oceans, while the savannah grasslands exhibit quintessential depictions of imagined Africa – vast trackless expanses, solitary flat-topped acacias and incredible concentrations of plains game. Kenya remains one of the best places in Africa to see great wildlife – lions, elephants, leopards and of course the annual ‘wildebeest migration’ streaming into the Maasai Mara from Tanzania.
