If you thought Kenya could be an African tour destination years ago, you would not have mentioned it before someone says you were only joking. The story has changed and now, Kenya is a choice destination for many tourists since the country has proven to have a lot of destinations to explore and also known for its beautiful wildlife which isn’t something a lot of countries can brag about.
Masai Mara National Reserve and The Meru National park which is close to Nairobi is one of the best places to get close to the wildlife and beautiful spaces as the Giraffe Manor where you can see Giraffes roaming around the surrounding and it’s said to be a beautiful experience.
List of places to check out when visiting the country includes
- NAIROBI
This is the capital and the largest city in Kenya. The city is the heart of the country as it’s one of the first places that comes to mind when one mentions Kenya and is one of the most interesting places in the country. Activities like ‘jumping-off point’ for safari trips are done here and the Nightlife scene is one to write home about.
2. MOMBASA
Its beachfront hotels are eye candy to travellers in search of sun, sand and surf. The view here is beautiful and picture friendly.
3. LAMU ISLAND
It’s with no doubt that Lamu Island is one of the finest places in the country, a must-visit for foreigners because it feels somewhat adventurous to explore the old city. The Island is just off the shore of Kenya in the Indian Ocean.
4. AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK
The Amboseli National Park is a huge park that can provide you with accommodation and safaris from high end to budget. It’s popular for elephants viewing and nature enjoyment
5. LAKE NAKURU
This is one of the Rift valley soda lakes that attract a large number (millions) of Flamingos and other birds that play around the shore. This seems to interest travellers as they can feed the birds, it is said to be one of the most visited tourist places in the country and Africa.
