Kenya Safaris


Kenya Safaris Map Kenya is the original safari destination, only 8.5 hours flying time from Europe and with a time difference of only two or three hours, Kenya is a perfect exotic holiday destination.

Kenya has been blessed with amazingly varied and attractive scenery, from pristine white beaches to snow capped mountains, from game covered plains to shimmering deserts, from rich tribal culture to an exotic Swahili influenced coast: A Kenya Safari has it all in abundance. This combination of attractions makes Kenya one of the best places in Africa for a Safari and Beach Holiday and a perfect honeymoon destination.

Fortunately Kenya is large enough to absorb the thousands of tourists who arrive every year and it is easy to avoid the busy tourist areas.

Safari Club will take you in style to areas where tourists are fewer and the sights and sounds of Kenya can be experienced in peace. Safari Club tailor made safari holidays in Kenya aim to give our clients the best value luxury safaris in Kenya without any compromise on the quality of your wildlife experience, guiding and accommodation, allowing you to experience the timeless majesty of Africa the way it should be experienced.

The best times to visit Kenya are probably October to February for scuba and clear seas, whilst the best time to visit Kenya for a game viewing safari are the drier months from June to October and January to Mid March. The annual wildebeest migration generally takes place from July to October but varies from year to year.

A safari circuit in Kenya could include:

Amboseli well known for its large tuskers and other game with Mount Kilimanjaro and its snow covered summit looming above the plains.

Meru National Park is the least visited of the large Kenyan parks and as such is an unspoiled and pristine wilderness, the place where Joy Adamson hand reared a lion cub and released it back into the wild as made famous by the film “Born Free.”

Shaba National Reserve is semi desert with a rugged hilly terrain, great rocky kopjes (small hills) and lots of springs supporting the abundant wildlife located in the Samburu region of Kenya.

Laikipia and Samburu are on the edge of the rugged Northern Frontier District where the management of our camps work with the local Masaai and Samburu community to preserve the environment and which has the second highest game density in Kenya.

Kenya Safaris - migration mapThe Masaai Mara is a place that every traveller should visit on that journey of a lifetime, a place where nature still rules supreme and where the annual wildebeest migration around August and September is one of the wonders of the world that cannot fail to hold you enthralled.

The rift valley lakes of Lake Nakuru, Naivasha and Baringo with their huge flocks of flamingos and Lake Nakuru National Park a stronghold for both black and white rhino are another Kenya favourite.

With powdery white sand, freshly caught seafood and few other tourists Lamu is a popular choice for a beach break  Whilst the  palm fringed coast, with its dazzling white beaches, North and South of Mombasa would meet most guests idea of the perfect tropical hideaway. There are many excellent and reasonably priced hotels and lodges to suit every budget.
