Kenya is a magical country in the heart of East Africa offering one of the best introductions to a safari holiday. Straddling the equator, Kenya is a land of extremes and contrasts from snow-capped mountains, rich red earth, shimmering lakes, raging rivers, dense forests and vast wide-open plains. The variety of vegetation supports plentiful wildlife and bird life as well as the famous Big Five (elephant, lion, buffalo, rhino and leopard) and the annual wildebeest migration.
Windows On The Wild offers a range of safaris that include some of the countries best loved national parks including the Masai Mara and Amboseli, as well as some lesser-known areas such as Laikipia that offer more seclusion and a better chance of seeing endangered species such as rhino and wild dogs. There’s also the opportunity to twin your holiday to Kenya with a stay on the coast, or on the paradise islands of Lamu or the Seychelles. Kenya’s coast is a world apart and offers blissful, white sand beaches, beautiful coral reefs and the sparkling Indian Ocean.
Kenya has a fascinating heritage and culture with over 40 tribes each with their own languages and traditions. There is an incredible choice of activities from day and night game drives, guided walks, hiking, balloon safaris, horse riding, river rafting and kayaking to name a few.
At the end of a long day, nothing beats sharing stories of the day’s adventures over a sundowner and nothing beats a trip to Kenya - its magic will stay with you forever.
