Kenya offers a blend of wildlife safari, African wilderness, bird-watching, natural sightseeing, white sandy beaches and turquoise blue seas - the perfect “bush and beach” destination.

The national parks and reserves south of the equator in Kenya , encompasses some of Africa's most iconic parks and reserves:

• The migrating herds of zebra and wildebeest usually arrive in the Masai Mara sometime in July and remain until October. During this time, the herds often cross back and forth across the Mara river. These river crossings can be very dramatic with crocodiles and lions waiting to ambush. The Masai Mara is known for its excellent “big cat” sightings. Even outside of the migration season the Masai Mara region offers spectacular game-viewing opportunities.
• Amboseli , with Mount Kilimanjaro as the impressive scenic backdrop, offers superb game-viewing. It is the best place in Africa to get close to the large population of elephants.
• Witness the spectacle of thousands of shimmering pink flamingos lining the shores of Lake Nakuru .
• Lake Naivasha is the highest of the Rift Valley lakes, a freshwater lake and home to an incredible variety of bird species. Lake Naivasha (meaning “rough water”) is a popular stop during most Kenya safari’s. The nearby Hell's Gate National Park,  is the perfect place for a mountain bike or walking safari.
• Tsavo East National Park is generally very popular for short safaris from the Kenya coast, like Mombasa.
• Tsavo West National Park is known for its extreme and striking scenery. Its diverse landscape include swamps, natural springs, rocky peaks, extinct volcanic cones, rolling plains and sharp reddish outcrops. Tsavo is also the place where the most dangerous lions ever to roam the planet, known as the “man-eaters of Tsavo” lived.

Visit the parks north of the equator in Kenya , with its semi-arid landscapes, which offer a more off-the-beaten-track experience:

• The Samburu Reserve is home to several rare species of game and is another must-see on any Kenyan safari.
• Straddling the equator at 5199m, Mount Kenya is the second-highest mountain in Africa and offers a picturesque climb.
• Aberdare National Park is famous for its black rhino population, the giant forest hogs, elephants and a range of antelope and gazelle. The unique lodges overlook floodlit waterholes and salt lick which attracts a host of wildlife, offering you the ultimate “armchair safari”.
• Ol Pejeta Conservancy is an outstanding wildlife gem. It is home to the last two northern white rhinos on the planet! Ol Pajeta is East Africa's largest black rhino sanctuary and the only place in Kenya where you can see chimpanzees. Its predator density range among the highest in Kenya.
• Lying on the edge of Northern Frontier, the Laikipia Plateau stretches from the slopes of snow-capped Mount Kenya to the rim of the Great Rift Valley. The ranges and private reserves within the Laikipia area offer some of the most luxurious and exclusive safari lodges in Africa. With more mammals than anywhere else in East Africa, Laikipia has enormous herds of elephant and is the exclusive home to the endangered Jackson's hartebeest and black rhino.
