About Kenya
Kenya receives about one million tourists a year and for most the very name, Kenya, means one thing - safari. There are four major national
parks and reserves ranging from Amboseli where you can spot elephants against the dramatic backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, to the freshwater
Lake Baringo, where twitchers have recorded more than 450 species of birds. Travelling by road can be very enjoyable, especially if you spend
the nights sleeping under the stars or sipping sundowners in a luxurious tented camp, but it's not the only way to view game. Have you
considered the peace and tranquility at dawn on a ride in a hot-air balloon? It's a superb way to view the animals without the crowds. Other
ways to relax and while away your holiday are sunbathing and lazing about on the coast. Base yourself in the historic town of Mombasa with
gorgeous beaches within easy reach, Diani being the most popular. The island of Lamu with its distinctly Arab influence is worth a visit, once
known as the 'Kathmandu of Africa,' it's still very peaceful.
