Kenya Experiences

Where to Go in Kenya

The Masai Mara is where to go in Kenya for the dramatic wildebeest migration but there’s a great deal more to this East African country. Other classic big game destinations such as Amboseli and Tsavo are easily accessible as is the recently opened-up Laikipia Plateau region. And after the drama of a Kenya safari, what could be better than a few lazy days on a white-sand beach? Kenya’s tropical coast offers everything from buzzing resorts to exclusive island hideaways making the country ideal for safari and beach vacations.

Olpopongi Masai Village.

A thrilling and extremely interesting walking safari through the neighboring bush kicks off the afternoon. Masai warriors will lead you along their routes while describing the local wildlife, unusual trees, and common medicinal plants. Your unique jungle expedition will also include the use of regional tools, hunting skills, and fire preparation. As they return to the village, freshly prepared coffee and cake are served along with the well-earned respite. Masai men and women will congregate for the customary singing and dancing performances around sundown. You will have a memorable evening under the (mainly) starry sky thanks to a fantastic BBQ-Buffet served right at the campfire and the “get together” with your already familiar Masai friends.The evening will come to a close in your personal Masai home on traditional beds with cozy blankets and mats.
The next morning, after waking up to the beat of the bush drums, breakfast awaits you: freshly baked buns, jam, fruits, and an omelette of your choosing! The trip is complete and it’s time to say goodbye with a ton of fresh impressions in your mind later, in the quiet early morning. Your driver will return you to your Nairobi hotel.

Nairobi National Park.

At 0630 hours, the tour begins. The only national park that is located the closest to the city is Nairobi National Park, which is 7 km from the CBD and can be reached in just under 15 minutes. Beginning in the western section of the park, the morning game drive circles the dry woodland in search of leopards and black rhinos. Three distinct areas make up Nairobi National Park: the dry woodland, the savannah grassland, and the ravine system. You will proceed to the savannah grassland after your adventure in the dry woodland to search for lions, gazelles, buffalo, and black rhinos. The journey will be completed with a stop at the ravine, which is home to hippopotamuses, crocodiles, and several bird species that live in the park.

Lake Magadi

Early in the morning, depart Nairobi and travel south toward the Ngong Hills (made famous by Karen Blixen’s novel Out of Africa).
Before crossing the escarpment, we stop at Kona Baridi Viewpoint for pictures and a panorama of the Great Rift Valley. We halt at the Olorgesailie Prehistoric Site in the middle of the morning after descending over the Ngong Hills and heading south into a semi-arid terrain. We move on to Lake Magadi after taking a guided tour of the location and learning about the area’s former residents. through the Magadi Soda factory and through the village of Magadi. We enter the Lake Magadi reserve area before moving on to the hot springs, where we stop for lunch and, if the weather is not too hot, wade in the hot, alkaline water springs and sit in the water to relax. Your skin feels so soft and smooth afterward, but as soon as it dries, you turn a chalky white color. For a cultural encounter, we meet a local Masai guide and Masai people who often swim in the lake. Return to Nairobi in the afternoon.
