Kenya
Scenic Beauty
Kenya - possibly the most famous safari destination in Africa - has much to offer the traveller. The wildlife, the culture and the range of landscapes have long been attracting visitors from all over the world, and despite its fame, it is still possible to have a holiday in Kenya that takes you off the beaten track.
Kenya Overview
You can experience big game safaris on foot or in vehicles, swim in the tropical waters of the Indian Ocean, visit forests, mountains and lakes, and much more.
If you would like to see remote, wilderness areas, then Meru and Laikipia are two beautiful and largely unknown destinations where you can have your own unique safari.
The vast wildebeest migration in the Maasai Mara is a great spectacle to behold, and one of the world’s most famous migrations. Imagine floating in a balloon over the wide-open savannah plains of the Mara, looking down over the thousands and thousands of Wildebeest.
Feeling fit? Close Encounters Africa can organise a climbing expedition to Mount Kenya for you. Or perhaps you want to see the huge herds of elephant in Amboseli, or spend time with the Maasai people who live there.
