Die Hauptstadt Nairobis ist die kosmopolitischste Stadt Ostafrikas und liegt am Nairobi River im wunderschönen Kenia. Es ist ein ausgezeichneter Ausgangspunkt für afrikanische Safaris in Kenia. Nairobi ist Afrikas viertgrößte Stadt und ist ein lebendiger und aufregender Ort. Obwohl es einen Ruf hat, der die Touristenbesuche kurz hält, gibt es einige faszinierende Attraktionen: seine Cafékultur, das ungezügelte Nachtleben, das Nationalmuseum, das Karen Blixen Museum und das Elefantenwaisenhaus des David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Eine weitere Attraktion ist der Nairobi Nationalpark - lediglich 20 Minuten vom Stadtzentrum entfernt, haben Sie hier die Chance wilde Löwen und Büffel zu beobachten.
Located in the beautiful Kenya Rift Valley basin, Naivasha is a compact market town northwest of Nairobi, best known as a stopping point for spellbinding Lake Naivasha. Aspiring wildlife photographers and nature lovers will marvel at Lake Naivasha and its abundance of wondrous wildlife. Here visitors can spot wallowing hippo pods, clouds of vibrant birdlife, zebra and various other game. The nearby Lake Oloiden and Oserian Wildlife Sanctuary are great spots for those passionate about wild wonders. Shopping in the bustling town ensures unique souvenirs for mementoes as well as restaurants offering delicious local dishes with every taste in mind. Accommodations ranging from lodges to bed and breakfasts provide great conveniences for travellers looking to explore the area.
One of Kenya’s undisputed natural highlights is the Masai Mara National Reserve, which sprawls across more than 1500 square kilometres of the country’s southwest. The park protects a phenomenal array of game, including elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo, as well as crocodile and hippopotamus in the Mara River. The birdlife is no less impressive, with over 450 resident bird species. However, the true highlight here is the Great Migration, recognised as one of the Seven New Wonders of the World. To survive the dry months of July to September, some 1.7 million wildebeest, migrate from the parched plains of the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. Along with much smaller numbers of antelope, buffalo and zebra, they move to the more forgiving grasslands of the Masai Mara. In their wake come predators such as lion, hyena and cheetah, for whom these giant herds are an easy source of prey.
A tranquil paradise framed by the lush palm trees and golden sands of the picturesque Kenyan coastline, Galu Beach is a coastal gem that offers a serene escape from bustling city life.
