Safari Africa Kenya - Kenya is one of the prominent safari destinations in Africa, offering great activities including wildlife safaris, hot-air balloon rides, luxury safaris and beach holidays among others.



Safari Africa Kenya - With more than 50 national parks and reserves, Kenya is a haven for wildlife lovers. Masai Mara Game Reserve, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Mount Kenya and Tsavo national parks are the most common destinations among many Kenya safari enthusiasts.



The national parks, which can be within easy reach through the capital Nairobi, offer chances to get up close with Kenya's big five - buffalo, leopard, rhino, lion and elephant - as well other species of wild animals.



Masai Mara Game Reserve is regarded as a must-visit for anyone looking to take advantage of the best which a Kenya safari will offer. The reserve is home to 95 varieties of animals and over 400 types of birds.



Masai Mara is most beneficial noted for the fantastic Wildebeest Migration, a dramatic annual event that sees millions of wildebeests and zebras crossing to the reserve from Tanzania's Serengeti National Park in search of water and pasture. The animals move back to the Serengeti as seasons change.



Masai Mara is also popular for hot-air balloon safaris. The balloon rides, which are usually taken early each day, give tourists a spectacular aerial look at the Mara's wildlife. A safari for the Masai Mara fails to automatically include a balloon ride and you may have to ask your agent to customise your trip to include the ride.



In addition to wildlife tours, Kenya offers ample opportunities for memorable beach safaris. The land that is certainly endowed with wonderful beaches that stretch from Somalia towards the Tanzania border is perfect for beach and honeymoon holiday safaris.



Lamu, a UNESCO world heritage site, is particularly popular among those seeking to enjoy their vacation in an intimate environment from the hustle of modern life. The archipelago has not many trappings of modernity and it has retained its 'rustic feel' despite being close to some of Kenya's best beaches.



Lamu safari offers interesting understanding of the Swahili and Islamic culture and traditions going back 700 years. Historical walking tours, Deep-sea diving, snorkelling, game fishing, and dhow sailing are some of the activities that are undertaken in a tour of Lamu.



Diving and snorkelling are major highlights of Lamu Safari. Although diving is relatively new to the archipelago, there are numerous great dive sites in the community awaiting to become explored by diving enthusiasts.



Lamu well known for its deep sea-fishing, with Kiwayu Island - located north of the archipelago- being ranked amongst the world's top 10 diving sites. Tuna, Wahoo, Sailfish and Kingfish Giant Trevally and Barracuda are some of the fish species that are caught in Lamu.
