Nairobi is Africa’s 4th largest city and is a vibrant and exciting place and although it has developed a reputation which keeps tourist visits brief there are some fascinating attractions: its café culture, unbridled nightlife, the National Museum, the Karen Blixen Museum and most notably just 20 minutes from the city centre wild lions and buffalo roam in the world’s only urban game reserve.
Located in Kenya's Great Rift Valley, Suguta Valley is hot, arid and remote. Only accessible on foot or via helicopter, the valley still lures many adventure seekers to its doorstep to view its otherworldly landscapes. It is said to be one of the driest areas in Kenya. Dubbed the 'Valley of Death', its stark and desolate terrain is characterised by spectacular desert landscapes dotted with volcanic cinder cones. Visitors can look forward to a wide selection of attractions, including the many flocks of flamingoes scattered across Lake Logipi, the magnificent Cathedral Rock, and the picturesque rolling desert dunes.
Situated in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley, around 90 kilometres north-west of Nairobi, Naivasha is a lively town that serves as the gateway to Lake Naivasha, one of the country's most important freshwater lakes. The surrounding Lake Naivasha basin is a popular base for exploring volcanic landscapes, nature reserves and national parks. Visitors can take boat trips across the water to spot hippos and a wide variety of birdlife, walk among free-roaming giraffes, zebras and antelope on Crescent Island, or explore the dramatic gorges and cliffs of Hell’s Gate National Park on foot or by bicycle. Surrounded by acacia woodland and Rift Valley escarpments, the region offers a distinctive blend of outdoor adventure, wildlife encounters and natural beauty.
Situated in southwestern Kenya, the Masai Mara encompasses the celebrated national reserve and its surrounding community conservancies, forming part of the Greater Serengeti–Mara ecosystem. Rolling savannahs, dotted with acacia trees and crossed by the Mara River, create a rich and varied landscape. Vast herds of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope graze across the plains, while elephants, giraffes, and buffalo roam freely. The river’s lush banks support hippos and crocodiles and sustain wildlife throughout the dry season. Predators are abundant, with lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas regularly seen in action. Each year, the spectacular Great Migration transforms the region, as millions of wildebeest and zebra traverse the plains. Visitors can soak up the breathtaking scenery, diverse wildlife, and Maasai cultural heritage in one of Africa’s most iconic safari destinations.
