Immortalised on screen and print as the land of the great adventurers and prolific wildlife Kenya still provides visitors with one of Africa's greatest wildlife safari experiences.

Rolling Savannahs and Dramatic Wilderness

The topography of Kenya, dominated by the Great Rift Valley, portrays a land of dramatic landscapes and wilderness areas. From the rolling plains of the Masai Mara to the aridly-beautiful northern regions and from the postcard-perfect Amboseli to the snow-white sands of the coast, Kenya is sure to soothe the nerves of even the most jaded traveller.

Kenya is an iconic travel destination and the people of the country add to an experience that is seldom achieved elsewhere. Most Kenyan's have grown up in a safari culture and are thus very familiar with the needs of visitors.

Kenyan culture adds the flavour to an already full experience. The Maasai, arguably the most photographed people in the world, happily share their culture with interested visitors. Kenya is one of the few African countries that can provide stand-alone wildlife, history, beach and cultural safaris. To have them all in one country is phenomenal.
