Being home to Walt Disney’s “Lion King”, it would be a shame not to spend at least a few days going on a Kenya safari here. There are so many game parks throughout this beautiful country; with each one having its own landscape, flora, and fauna.
Seeing the big 5 is an attraction for many visitors, which means; lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinos. In addition to the big 5, you’ll be sure to see an incredible variety of wildlife roaming freely through the open savannah.
There are too many animals to mention here, but you’ll be sure to see many species of gazelles and antelopes, zebras, and different types of wild cats including cheetahs, mongooses, monkeys, bat-eared foxes, warthogs, hyenas, hippos, crocodiles, crested cranes and the extraordinary sight of lakes, literally pink with huge numbers of flamingoes.
Great Wildebeest Migration
One of the most amazing wildlife spectacles in the world is the annual wildebeest migration which happens in the Masai Mara game reserve. Literally, millions of these ungainly creatures attempt to cross the Mara River and escape the snapping jaws of hungry crocodiles. The sight and sound of this incredible event are ones that will last with you for a lifetime.
How to reach Kenya for Safari by air?
There are many international airlines reaching Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. The major airlines that fly to Nairobi from Europe include British Airways (London), KLM (Amsterdam), SN Brussels Airlines (Brussels), and Swiss/Cross air. From the USA, a connecting flight must be taken. Other international airlines that fly to Nairobi include El Al, Egypt airways, South African Airways, Ethiopian Airlines, Emirates, Air Malawi, Air Zimbabwe, and Qantas. Only a couple of German airlines fly direct from Europe to Moi International Airport in Mombasa, from Munich (LTU) or Frankfurt (Condor).
Best Travel Period
The best time of the year to safari in Kenya is the boreal summer, from July to September. A second choice is the bore al winter from January to February. There are two rainy seasons, the “long rains” from March to June and the “short rains” from October to December. Seasonal rains condition both road communications and some cyclic wildlife movements. Wildlife is more abundant in Masai Mara during the boreal summer.
Luggage
We shall advise you to travel light as most of the trip will be on the Kenya safari vehicles. Remember your hand bag for the trekking.
Documents and Visa entry fees
Visas to Kenya can be obtained directly on entry and costs $50 for 90 days. The passport must be valid for at least six months starting from the date of entry.
Health requirements
It is advisable to have the vaccinations against yellow fever, hepatitis, typhus and tetanus. Risk of malaria is very reduced in Nairobi and the Highlands above 2,000 m, whereas the risk rises in the Indian Ocean coast. The malignant type of the illness, produced by Plasmodium falciparum, is the most frequent in Kenya. The usual prophylaxis consists of a combination of chloroquine and proguanyl, or otherwise drugs that combine the two compounds. Prophylaxis with mefloquine (Lariam) is specially recommended for high risk areas, given the presence of strains resistant to chlorine and Sulphadoxine – Pyrimetamine.
Currency and Exchange rate
The national currency is the Kenya shilling (Ksh or KES). Each shilling is divided into 100 cents. In 2006 1 USD is exchanged at the average rate of 73 Ksh. It is a good idea to carry cash and traveler cheques in US dollars. The most widely used are American Express, Thomas Cook and Citibank. Restaurants, hotels, lodges and big shops accept the major credit cards.
What to dress
Dress is mainly informal and should be comfortable as well as practical. Something warm should be brought along for early morning and evenings. Safari clothes are available from hotels/lodges/camps.
