Experience Kenya
Our favourite things to see and do
David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust – Visiting this
orphanage is a great day out, and a lot can be learnt from
those who have dedicated their lives to nurture and revive
the African wildlife in any way possible. With an ongoing
threat of elephant and rhino poaching in Africa, the
inspiration to help this Trust reach their goal is becoming
more important. Anyone in the world can now foster an
elephant at the Trust for a small annual cost, helping to
rehabilitate these precious creatures back into their natural
habitat. Doors are open for only one hour a day, so be sure
to book before you arrive.
Amboseli National Park – At 392 sq km, Amboseli is
full of elephant in huge herds. One of the highlights is seeing
them cross the grassy plains with Tanzania’s Mt Kilimanjaro
sitting proudly in the background. You can see a large
variety of wildlife here. Most visitors approach Amboseli
through Namanga, the main border post between Kenya
and Tanzania.
Masai village visit – There is no better way to learn about
culture of the locals than to spend quality time with them,
in their homestead. Get to know their culture and customs
on a visit to the traditional Maasai village, the local primary
school or the busy market day. Experience how the Masai
people live in the middle of the bush with zebra grazing and
lions roaring just outside their homes. For many, special
memories of a Masai visit will last the rest of a lifetime.
Kenyan Beaches – Kenyan beaches make an excellent
ending to any Kenya safari. Pick a beach anywhere north
of Mombasa and you can expect brilliant blue seas lapping
against fi ne white sands. The coast is lined with coral reefs,
making for excellent snorkelling, diving and watersports.
Pemba Island is a hotspot for big game fi shing, so be
prepared to reel in a Marlin!
