Unforgettable wildlife experiences in the midst of iconic landscapes

Kenya has long been a safari favourite – home to some of the world’s most famous national parks and reserves, with rolling plains, great lakes and vast wildernesses, rich in African wildlife from big cats to even bigger elephants and rhino. And away from its destinations that top wildlife enthusiasts’ wish lists, it's blessed with a tropical coastline, where palm-fringed sands are lapped by clear waters.

Best time to visit Kenya

• Kenya is warm year-round, but it can be cold in early morning and at night on safari • January-March is generally dry and hot • July and August are the most popular months to visit • There are two rainy seasons from April-May and November-December – this is a good time to see new-born animals and benefit from the best value offers • July-October is typically the best time to see the annual wildebeest migration in the Maasai Mara, depending on rains.

Kenya holiday highlights

With over 40 national parks and reserves, Kenya offers some of the best wildlife viewing opportunities in the world. The most well-known of all its game parks is, of course, the Maasai Mara – the subject of many wildlife documentaries, with its wide open savannah and majestic big cats. People also flock here to see the ‘greatest show on earth’; the annual migration. The largest mass movement of land mammals on earth, the Great Migration sees over one million stampeding wildebeest and other grazing herbivores journey the 300 miles from the Serengeti in Tanzania to Kenya’s Maasai Mara. A rough pattern occurs each year as the herds follow the rains to secure a good water supply and fertile grass – usually gracing the Maasai Mara between August and October. But there's more to Kenya than the migration and the Mara, with just as much on offer for experienced wildlife enthusiasts as first-time safari goers. Venture to the giants of Tsavo East and Tsavo West for wonderfully varied landscapes. Visit beautiful Amboseli National Park, home to herds of elephants dwarfed by magnificent Mount Kilimanjaro, or seek out the unique wildlife of Samburu National Reserve, such as the long-necked gerenuk or reticulated giraffe. Bird lovers will delight in the Great Rift Valley’s lakes. In Kenya you’ll have a great chance of seeing the Big Five (a phrase coined by African hunters to group the five most difficult and dangerous animals to hunt on foot: the lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, leopard and rhino). Magnificent though they are – and they really are – don’t forget to appreciate the other species that inhabit this incredible country

There are many ways to discover Kenya. Travel around by 4x4x or light aircraft; choose a scheduled safari or tailor-make your own; join a group or opt for a private vehicle. You can stay in national parks or neighbouring conservancies; and choose from rustic camping safaris to the ultimate in luxury lodges. For something extra special, opt for a hot-air balloon ride at sunrise, drifting over the vast plains as the first signs of life appear below. On a safari with Kuoni, we ensure that each overland vehicle used for game viewing has a maximum of six passengers, so that each person gets a window seat and space to stand and look out through the pop-up roof. Together with Tanzania, Kenya is also one of the best places for a safari and beach holiday - a popular honeymoon choice. The vibrant city of Mombasa is the gateway to Kenya’s tranquil coast which boasts a diverse blend of cultures, sights, and over 300 miles of palm-fringed beaches stretching from the small town of Malindi in the north to the dazzling white sands of Diani in the south. Brilliant year round temperatures coupled with azure waters make for a wonderfully relaxing break – or a more active one if you desire it, with plenty of watersports on offer, too.

Breathtaking backdrops and glorious wildlife have long made Kenya a favourite for safari holidays. But beyond the wildlife and migration, it also offers a calm coastline, great lakes and consistently warm temperatures. Discover Africa’s east coast by air or 4x4, and take advantage of its proximity to other captivating countries for an unforgettable multi-centre holiday. Get a taste of rolling mountain scenery in nearby Rwanda, an excellent destination for chimpanzee and gorilla treks, or the beautiful wet landscapes of nearby Zambia and Zimbabwe. Neighbouring Tanzania is home to the stunning beaches of Zanzibar, whose white shores are an ideal honeymoon retreat following a safari in Kenya. If you’re looking for another unique wildlife and coastal escape, take a quick flight down to South Africa. The Seychelles and Mauritius are great options for an island adventure. With watersports and sugar-white beaches, either of these countries can be combined with Kenya to create a brilliant safari and beach honeymoon. If you’re after a change of scenery to divide your holiday, stop off in Arabia. Many airlines have their hubs based here, so it’s easy to break up your journey. Whether it’s glitz and glamour in the UAE, shopping in Qatar or sprawling deserts in Oman, the Middle East has plenty of destinations which add a wonderful contrast to your multi-trip getaway. Tailor your trip today, and get ready for an adventure of a lifetime.

Inspiration
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. “What’s happened to me? ” he thought. It wasn’t a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table – Samsa was a travelling salesman – and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer. Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. “How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense”, he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn’t get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before. “Oh, God”, he thought, “what a strenuous career it is that I’ve chosen!
