A Different Holiday Option: Kenya Safari Holidays

By Denver Burke


If you are getting bored with annual holidays at the coast, why not consider something different? Kenya safari holidays offer new and exciting experience. Untamed Africa with its plethora of wildlife, open plains and jungles offer new and exciting experiences.

Kenya offers all of this and more. Named after its highest mountain, Mount Kenya is the second highest mountain in Africa. Lake Victoria, Africa's largest lake is shared with Tanzania and Uganda. Located in East Africa and on the equator, it has a varied geography, with a long Indian Ocean coastline, rolling savannas and dense jungles.

This country plays host to one of the world's greatest spectacles - the annual Wildebeest migration every June. The migration passes through the Masai Mara game reserve, with over one million Wildebeest stretching from horizon to horizon. Lions follow the migrating herd for easy hunting as they bring down the stragglers and the weak.

The crocodiles also benefit from the migration as the Wildebeest cross the Mara River. The powerful river currents sweep some of the herd away and others are taken by the crocodiles.

A most spectacular way of experiencing the Kenyan bush and wildlife is from a hot air balloon. Whether you are skimming the tops of the trees or seeing the overall vista from a greater height, this is an experience that will stay with you for life.

For those who want to experience the bush and wildlife up close and personal, there are walking safaris and camel safaris. These safaris are led by experienced trackers and guides. They will ensure that your Kenya safari holidays will be unforgettable.
