Located in southwestern Kenya, the Maasai Mara is one of Africa’s most renowned safari destinations.

Visitors can witness the Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros) and experience the authentic Maasai culture.
Amboseli National Park:
Known for its picturesque views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak (which is actually in Tanzania), Amboseli National Park offers fantastic wildlife viewing opportunities. The park is home to large elephant herds and an array of other wildlife species, including giraffes, lions, cheetahs, and various bird species.

Located along Kenya’s coastline on the Indian Ocean, Diani Beach is a stunning tropical paradise. With its white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and swaying palm trees, it is a popular destination for beach lovers and water sports enthusiasts. Snorkeling, scuba diving, and kite surfing are among the activities available.
Lake Nakuru National Park:
Nestled around Lake Nakuru in the Great Rift Valley, this park is famous for its abundant birdlife, particularly the vast flocks of flamingos that gather at the lake. Besides the flamingos, visitors can also spot rhinos, lions, giraffes, and other wildlife in the park.
