Kenya is where the modern safari began, and it still sets the standard. From the sweeping plains of the Maasai Mara to the elephant herds of Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, the game viewing is immediate, dense, and dramatic.
Between July and October, the Great Migration crosses the Mara River in one of the planet's most extraordinary wildlife events. The resident Big Five, lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino, stay visible here year round too.
Good flight connections from Nairobi mean you can be out in the bush within about an hour of landing. A mature safari network, from mobile camping to five star lodges, means there's a well run Kenya safari option at every price point.
