Visitare la costa

La costa kenyota e’ prevalentemente sabbiosa: sabbie bianche si lascaino infrangere dale acque calde dell’Ocenao indiano.  Ciò che stupisce gli occhi di un turista occidentale e’ la purezza dell’ambiente e la presenza di paesaggi selvaggi.

Mombasa:  la spiaggia di Mombasa e’ di sabbia Bianca e a differenza della costa settentrionale e’ totalmente priva di alghe. Per raggiungere Mombasa puoi prendere da Nairobi un bus (700 Ksh), o il treno (4000 Ksh andata e ritorno) o l’ aereo ($100 andata e ritorno). E’ raccomandabile utilizzare un volo interno visto che le alter due opzioni possono talvolta essere rischiose se il viaggio viene fatto da soli. Inoltre la strada per Mombasa e’ piuttosto dissestata e I tempi sia in treno che in bus rischiano di allungarsi a dismisura!

Malindi e Watamu sono la meta ideale per chi cerca un pò di tranquillita’, relax e soprattutto a Malindi divertimento!

Lamu: non esiste un posto al mondo come Lamu! Una citta’ molto tranquilla, dall’aspetto misterioso e dai vicoli affascinanti. Consigliatissima!

Wildlife Safari

A wildlife safari in Kenya is one of the world's greatest travel experiences. Take the opportunity to immerse yourself in Nature at its most pure. Take the world's best wildlife safari into….

Amboseli: this beautiful park consists of wide open plains crowned by the snow capped peak of Kilimanjaro. Amboseli is easily accessible from Nairobi, and its relatively small size and open plains make game viewing very easy.

Masai Mara: is widely considered to be Africa's greatest wildlife reserve. The prime interest for most visitors to this area, obviously, is to see wildlife. The sheer volume and variety of the Mara will certainly not disappoint. If visiting the Mara from July through October, visitors should take the opportunity to witness one of the world's greatest natural spectacles, the Great Wildebeest Migration from the Serengeti. The herds of the Mara attract plenty of predators. This is the best place in all of Kenya to see Lions.

Tsavo: the open plains are the best place to see the large herds of game. The region is well known for its herds of "Red Elephants", their skins stained by rich ochre dust. The plains are also ideal for finding Lion, Eland, Impala, Kudu and possibly Rhinoceros. In the forested hills, large herds of Buffalo and Giraffe are often found.

Lake region

Kenya straddles the centre of the Great Rift Valley, the vast prehistoric fissure that stretches from Jordan to Mozambique. From the North to the South of Kenya, the valley is lined with a series of freshwater and soda based volcanic lakes. Travelling from lake to lake is a journey through a world of contrasts: from papyrus fringed Naivasha with its abundance of birdlife, through Nakuru with its famous flamingo population, the steam geysers of Bogoria, the crocodiles and hippo of Baringo and North to the mighty Jade Sea of Turkana
