‘Jambo’ is such a joyful word; it’s impossible to say this Swahili greeting without a lilt in your voice and a smile on your face. It even made Hemingway cheerful, who said: ‘I never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke up that I was not happy.’ You’re going to get a lot of “Jambo” when you visit Kenya, which will without fail put you in the ‘Hakuna Matata’ frame of mind (No Worries).
The savannah grass- lands of the Masai Mara, with big skies and abundant wildlife, Maasai warriors and lion kings, is the real Africa of your dreams. Seeing a migration river crossing is a sight to behold! Visit the most successful wild animal rescue and rehabilitation programme in the world.
Kenya’s national parks and reserves are not just for terrestrial wildlife — its the vibrancy of the country with its vast open plains of the Masai Mara, the tropical coastline and a melting pot of 42 tribes and cultures reflecting African, Arabic, British and Indian influences. The combination is nothing like you’ve ever experienced before.
Kenya’s most striking landmarks are nature’s own; the Great Rift Valley cleaved apart by enormous forces is visible from space, but is best seen on land from the edge of the Ngong Hills. A series of lakes create a north/south necklace of freshwater through Central and East Africa, with a special little bracelet of soda lakes in Kenya that are home to thousands of flamingos.
Indian Ocean coast- line has several marine parks, protecting species like four different turtles, dolphins and dugongs. There’s safe swimming inside a trough of ocean created by an off- shore coral reef running all the way up the coast. Resorts offer diving and snorkeling in crystal clear water averaging a heavenly 26-28°C, with air temperatures a perfect 27-31°C.
