There’s nothing better than a week of wildlife watching in Kenya. This tailor made tour has been designed to combine cultural insight with naturally exciting animal encounters, ideal for honeymooners or families looking for a rich and varied itinerary.
Game drives and visits to local communities are just a couple of options to ensure travelers get to maximize their time in Kenya on a tailor made week away. Starting in Nairobi and completing in Mombasa also invites opportunities to extend a wildlife tour in Kenya to include some well-deserved beach time. Alternatively, the spice island of Zanzibar also makes for a convenient setting upon completion of a seven day tour.
From a solid choice of safari lodge and luxury tented accommodation to a varied range of locations, including the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East, this wonderful week of wildlife watching can be tailored to meet all expectations.
One thing is for sure, no matter what you decide to do and where you decide to visit, nothing can compare to the first-hand experience of African animals up close. Elephants, lions, rhinos, leopards, flamingos, buffaloes, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras and different types of gazelles, can all be seen on safari in Kenya. Visit during July and October, and you’ll have the privilege of witnessing the great migration where millions of wildebeest cross the Mara River in search of pastures new. Birdwatchers need look no further than Lake Nakuru National Park for a flurry of feathers and colorful wings.
Whatever you’re looking forward to the most, make sure you get in touch to tailor a tour of Kenya that’s going to be as wonderfully wild and culturally enlightening as really relaxed and absolutely unforgettable.
