Kenya Safaris

AfripotSafaris offers wildlife vacations to the best game parks in Kenya and also the world famous bird sanctuaries of the Great Rift Valley Lakes before taking you down to the Coast to enjoy at leisure the beautiful sunny beaches of Mombasa, Malindi or Lamu.

Samburu National reserve is becoming one of Kenya's most admired stops after the Mara. Sights of the peculiarly branched doum palms and taut thorn trees give an unusual look to the region.  Likewise, the permanent water supply acts like a lure for the abundant species found here, some endemic to the North of Kenya.

The Great Rift Valley is Kenya's bird watching centre with over 1200 different species native to the country and more than 450 sighted here.  Further onwards, the small park of Lake Nakuru provides sightings of Rothschild’s giraffes, endangered white and black rhinos, leopards and abundant bird species.

The Mara reserve is 1510 sq km of incredible wide-open landscapes and fertile riverine woodland following the looping meanders of the Mara and Talek rivers. One glimpse is enough to explain its appeal; it is typical savannah, with a mass of amazing wildlife.

Amboseli is situated on the foot of Mt. Kilimanjaro very close to the Tanzanian border. Despite its small size (392 sq km), this fragile ecosystem supports a wide range of mammals (well over 50 of the larger species) and birds (over 400 species). On clear days the looming Mt. Kilimanjaro offers great photo opportunities.

Tsavo is the largest national park in Kenya (at 22,000 sq km), and is comprised of Tsavo East and West. Due to the abundant vegetation cover, more effort is required to spot the wildlife, but the fantastic landscape and comparatively few visitors compensates for this.

There are a myriad of activities to the discerning traveler namelyGame Viewing, Camping, scenic Sceneries, Photography, adversity of Cultures, Bird Watching, Relaxation, Beach Life.

Kenya has long been recognized as “Big Game” country, with huge numbers of animals in over 40 National Parks and Reserves.The country has a history of protecting its wildlife, which gives the visitor a wonderful range of experiences in all sorts of different terrain, awakening images of beauty and romance, which it well deserves.

In terms of tourism, the country has a reputation for being almost too popular, with lots of minibuses and large safari lodges. This is especially applicable to the Masai Mara. However, Kenya copes very well with package tourists, but the recent trend is towards personalised tour packages, where you have the freedom of suggesting your own itinerary with a smaller number of guests in an exclusive remote setting. Likewise, Kenya has had its fair share of publicity, from adventurous hunters like Teddy Roosevelt and Earnest Hemingway to popular movies like 'Out of Africa' and ‘The Lion King'.

With its amazing landscapes - from the snows of Mts. Kenya, to the Great Rift Valley with its string of strange lakes, from open savannah with no evident horizon, to mountain ranges with extraordinary rock forms, from coffee plantations, tea and coconut palms to tropical lush green gardens with flowers and colourful birds, it is easy to see why Kenya is an ideal tourist destination.

It is not just outstanding wildlife and scenery that you come to Kenya for, it is also the rich culture of Kenya's tribes, of whom the Masai and Samburu are instantly recognisable. Their elaborate and colourful clothing is extremely distinctive and their lifestyle is a fascinating contrast to western culture. This mix of great wildlife experiences and eye-opening cultural encounters makes Kenya a very desirable safari destination.

In addition, the Kenyan coast is simply one of the best places in Africa to spend time at - the beach with miles of soft white sandy beaches, warm sea, bright skies, waving palms and coral reefs bright with exotic fish. There are hundreds of beach resorts most offering a multitude of activities. Several of Kenya's wildlife parks are within a reasonable drive from the coast including, Tsavo, Taita Hills and Shimba Hills.

On our camping or lodge tours you will explore the hills of Mount Kenya, the arid semi-desert of Samburu, the dry hot Chalbi Desert, the lush rain forests of Mount Elgon, Kakamega and Aberdares, the rolling savannah of the Masai Mara and the stunning Rift Valley and her lakes; you will meet and interact with the many tribes and cultures along the way; and you will get the chance to view wildlife and birds in the many game parks and reserves you cross. A combination of walks, game drives and village visits ensure an excellent introduction to Kenya's many faces that you will love and fall for.
