Safari is Swahili for "journey" and
it is in Kenya where safaris began. Magnificent national parks and
reserves brim with wildlife. Lush forests and breathtaking mountains
provide awe inspiring photographic opportunities. Fascinating tribal
cultures abound and the amazing variety and quantity of bird life
are an ornithologist's paradise. The massive Great Rift Valley
is no more impressive than in Kenya. The 310 miles of golden beaches
of the Kenyan Coast invite the visitor to relax and enjoy the peaceful
surroundings. The small islands off the coast beckon.
But it is perhaps the wildlife more than anything
that draws visitors to Kenya. The annual migration from the Serengeti
in the south into the Masai Mara sees more than one million wildebeest,
along with a host of other plains game, assemble in giant herds.
Kenya boasts some of the finest reserves in Africa - and visitors
will be thrilled at the sight of lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant,
giraffe, gazelle, buffalo, hippo, rhino - and hundreds more.
