Authentic Africa between savanna and ocean
Kenya unfolds its contrasting landscapes between the endless savanna of Masai Mara and the white sand beaches of the Indian Ocean. Umbrella acacias dot the horizon while the Big Five roam their natural habitat. Nairobi's markets buzz with conversations in Swahili and the scent of spices floats through Mombasa's warm air.
This land of contrasts invites encounters with the Maasai, Kikuyu and Luo communities who perpetuate their centuries-old traditions. A tailor-made journey reveals the country's cultural richness, from the highlands of Mount Kenya to the turquoise lagoons of Watamu.
What to absolutely see in Kenya?
The Masai Mara is the epicenter of safaris with the Great Migration of wildebeest between July and October. Amboseli National Park offers spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro while Tsavo reveals its characteristic red elephants. The Swahili coast seduces with its pristine beaches of Diani and Malindi, dotted with dhow fishing villages. Lake Nakuru attracts pink flamingos and black rhinoceros in a striking setting.
What type of trip should you choose?
A stay of 10 to 15 days allows you to combine safari and beach relaxation. Families appreciate adapted lodges while photographers favor intimate camps. The budget ranges from 3,000 to 5,000 € per person depending on the standard of accommodations and the season. Customization remains essential to balance wildlife observation, cultural discoveries and moments of rest facing the Indian Ocean.
