| KENYA’S TOP 5 SIGHTS |
Maasai Mara
Considered one of the world’s greatest game reserves. Its name is taken from Massai peoples,
and their description of how the region is seen from afar, “Mara”, which means “spotted”.
The Maasai reside in the park and have for many centuries grazed their animals.
All of the “Big Five” are found in the Massai Mara (Black rhinoceros, lions, elephants, cape buffalo and African elephants). The numbers of Black Rhino has significantly depleted since the 1960s.
Lake Nakuru National Park
Famed for its enormous flocks of pink flamingos. It’s has a rich array of wildlife including lions, pythons, rhinos and waterbucks.
Mount Kenya
This is the highest mountain in kenya at 5200 metres. The majestic snow-capped mountain is the second highest in Africa and perfect for fit trekkers.
Lamu Island
Lamu Island has managed to remain untouched by Kenya’s mass tourism. There are no roads on the island and very few cars as a result. Lamu Town is the oldest living town in Kenya and full charm and character.
Nairobi National Park
The National Park lies within close proximity to the metropolis of Nairobi. It has a diverse range of wildlife to view against the back drop of the skyscrapers and landing airplanes. Home to the world’s densest population of black rhino.
