Kenya
lies in East Africa along the equator and its
capital city, Nairobi, is the 2nd largest in
Africa after Cairo. Magical Kenya as it is
commonly referred to in the tourism industry is
a land of intrigue, color and diversity.
Famous for
its wildlife, athletes and hospitality, Kenya is
one of the foremost tourism destinations in the
world boasting 59 national parks and game
reserves, each one unique with different
wildlife and topography. Home to the original
Safari, Kenya guarantees encounters with most,
if not all, of the big five – lions, elephants,
leopard, buffalo and rhino, and plays host to
the world's 7th New Wonder of the World.
Not only
renowned for its grounded wildlife, Kenya is a
bird watcher's paradise, with 30% of the world’s
pink flamingoes calling Kenya home, and over 100
species of birds to be spotted in any one day.
Supporting this tremendous abundance of life is
Kenya's diverse landscape, ranging from
semi-deserted plains to lush plantations, dense
forests and tropical lowlands, to palm-fringed
beaches, grassy savannahs and icy peaks.
Similarly, Kenya is culturally rich and diverse
with 42 different indigenous tribes, each
offering their own unique experiences, and all
offering the uniquely warm hospitality that
Kenyan's are famous for.
Kenya
provides excellent value for money experiences
with accommodation choices to suit every budget
and interest; from lying under the open skies
and stars, to luxury cameo tent retreats, city
hotels and beach resorts. Home to some of the
best tea, coffee and cut flowers in the world,
Kenya livens the senses! |
