Kenyan Safari

Whenever people think about safaris, Kenya is one of the main destinations that spring to mind. Home to the original safari adventures, Kenya is not only home to some of the most spectacular wildlife, but also to pristine beaches and clear tropical waters. Many of Africa’s best known national parks are located in Kenya, and offer the most memorable safari excursions ever.

The Great Wildebeest migration is one of the star attractions in Kenyan safaris, and an experience not to be missed. The Masai Mara reserve is renowned for this mass migration, and visitors can enjoy the thousands of wildebeest that roam the plains. This reserve has been a stopover for the animals for thousands of years, and a place for them to replenish and relax in the midst of their journey. The site of thousands of wildebeests grazing and walking is a site to behold and not one to be forgotten. The wildebeest are seen on their migration for approximately three months typically between August and October, and special trips can be organised to witness this mass exodus.

The Masai Mara is one of the most popular reserves in Kenya, as well as in the whole of Africa. With a manageable size, game viewing is easily accessible. Throughout the year, hundreds of different animals can be found sleeping, relaxing, grazing and swimming in the park. Zebras, Elands, and gazelles often join in the migration, although they can be seen throughout the year. Even if you miss the months of the migration, there are always plenty of things to see including the amazing lions and leopards. If it is a safari you are after, then Kenya is not a place to overlook, offering some of the best adventures in the world.
