Kenya Safari Holidays For The Adventuress

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.

The country is on the east coast of Africa and straddles the equator. It has a long Indian Ocean coastline and has a diverse geography, including savanna, jungle and mountains. It derives its name from Mount Kenya, the second highest mountain in Africa. It also boasts Africa's largest lake, Lake Victoria, which it shares with Uganda and Tanzania.

Probably the best time of year to visit is in June. This is the time of the annual Wildebeest migration through the Masai Mara game reserve. At this time every year over one million Wildebeest congregate, and the sight of them, stretching from horizon to horizon is not one to be missed. For the lions, the migration offers easy hunting as they pick off the stragglers.

It is also a time of plenty for the crocodiles in the Mara River, as the herd makes its relentless way through the swiftly flowing water. Hyenas also follow the herd, attacking the weak and the young.

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.
