Explore our breathtaking tours around Kenya and discover why Kenya is such an important destination in Africa.
Experience a safari vacation in Kenya, the place where safari travel originated. The best Kenya tours and safaris include Big 5 game viewing, incredible natural beauty and cultural encounters, often combining Kenya’s top attractions with Tanzania and the tropical beaches of the Kenyan coast of Mombasa, Watamu, Malindi, Lamu Island and Zanzibar, Tanzania.The safari bucket list for Kenya includes seeing the Great Migration in the legendary Masai Mara, Amboseli unforgettable views of Mount Kilimanjaro and Samburu leopards. Encounter fascinating cultures in authentic Masai villages and taste the flavors of Africa, India and Europe in the melting pot that is Swahili culture.
Kenya’s major attraction is the natural movement of herds – wildebeest, zebra and gazelle – following the summer rains and sweet grass in an annual journey known as the Great Migration. Depending on when your Kenya safari takes place, you may witness the life-and-death struggles of the Mara River crossings or dramatic encounters with Africa’s top predators on the open plains. Kenya combines easily with Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda. It means you can extend with gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda or Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. You’ll also find a wide range of safari and beach combination tours to make the most of Kenya’s Out of Africa scenic beauty and wildlife, rounded off with R&R on a tropical island.
Kenya offers a holiday to every traveller needs. Kenya family safaris that offer child-friendly activities, exclusive hideaways for honeymooners, adventurous honeymoon packages. Standards of service is high and Kenya’s top destinations offer luxury accommodation ranging from lavish, colonial-style lodges to funky boutique hotels and amenity-packed resorts.
Lodges and camps fill up fast, especially for a Great Migration safari from June to October. Remember, this is safari’s high season and when the popular river crossings happen, but you can see the herds any time of the year. However if you are interested in last minute bookings, we are happy to accommodate you on what is readily available.
The Migration is a fluid, often unpredictable activity. It’s important to know where to go and when to go on a Wildebeest Migration safari to ensure your expectations are met. Choose and arrange your timing according to what you want to see and experience. With the professional assistance of our Tour consultants.
The Masai Mara National Reserve and Serengeti National Park experience high visitor and vehicle numbers during safari’s peak or high season (about June to October). We have the option of private conservancies adjoining the Masai Mara offer exclusivity, luxurious accommodation and excellent game viewing in sole-use areas. You’ll also be offered activities not permitted in the main reserve, such as night drives, bush walks and off-road game viewing.
There are camps in the Serengeti that are located a little further away from the Migration hot spots – meaning you can easily get to all the action, but also retreat to tranquility. All is subject to availability.
A Wildebeest Migration experience can get busy, noisy, smelly, and far removed from a general Big 5 safari. We highly recommend ending at a lodge or camp that’s located away from the herds to enjoy a bit of tranquility and a diverse game viewing experience.
Kenya’s weather is best over the winter months of June to September when both rainfall and temperatures are at their lowest. The wildebeest migration occurs sometime between early August and November so this is also a popular time to visit. February and March can be very hot and humid.
The Masai Mara and Serengeti complement each other, and can also form the focal point of a larger safari itinerary. We recommend combining the Masai Mara with Amboseli or extending with Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire and the Rift Valley Lakes to the Serengeti. You can even go further afield and easily add top destinations:
