Visaleets | Updated on 30 Nov,2022

Many people visit the African continent to experience African safaris. Kenya is one of the countries of the continent that allows visitors to experience the safari ride. The country is home to more than 100 operations wildlife conservancies which are spread across private and public land. 

 

The speciality of the country is that its people are inclined to preserve the wildlife ecosystems and thus help in maintaining Kenya’s national park system. Visitors should not miss visiting Ol Pejeta near Mount Kenya and Ol Kinyei near Tanzania as they can experience the sight of diverse wildlife.

 

Beaches are also a reason that is crucial to enhance the tourist sector. The beaches of Mombasa, Diani, Malindi, and Lamu are all unique and give a pleasant experience to visitors. The warm waters of the Indian Ocean soothe the souls of travellers. Tourists can experience kitesurfing and snorkelling adventures that relax both body and mind. 

 

One can also experience a sense of relaxation by staying at a Swahili beach house and strolling along the beach shores on soft sand. One should never miss tasting some fresh seafood and Swahili cuisine which can be mouth-watering. A small vacation on beaches can uplift the mood and bring a sense of peace.

 

Maasai Mara National Reserve is a must on the tourist list while visiting Kenya as it is a hub for the Great Migration that occurs between July and August. The event is characterised by two million wildebeest arriving from Tanzania to the country in search of green pasture lands and wetlands. 

 

Everyone considers Mara to be a great place for going on a safari. One can witness wildlife such as lions, elephants, rhinos, and leopards in their natural habitats while visiting these national reserves. 

 

Kenya offers some authentic cuisine varieties as well as some bizarre dishes. Nairobi, the capital city, harbours a wide range of restaurants. The famous restaurants include Moorings Floating Restaurant and Ali Barbour’s Cave in Mombasa. One can find Ugali, the national dish of the country on every menu. It is made of maize flour and has a special taste to it.

These include Fort Jesus (Mombasa), Sacred Mijikenda Kaya Forests (Mombasa), Old Town of Lamu, and Thimlich Ohinga stone ruins that exist near Lake Victoria. These stone ruins are believed to be around 500 years old. The Kenya Lake system of the Great Rift Valley, Mount Kenya National Park, and Three Lake Turkana National Parks are natural sites that can be visited while on a Kenya trip.

Apart from natural sites, African safaris, and beaches, tourists can also plan sports sessions while in Kenya. Tourists generally are involved in hiking, cycling, or driving activities while on the trip. So the trip to Kenya can be both adventurous and fun-filled.
