A safari icon
Kenya is known for broad savannah landscapes, rich wildlife and a long tradition of safari travel. The Maasai Mara is the best-known reserve, but a complete Kenya itinerary may also include other parks, conservancies, lakes or coastal extensions.
Kenya combines well with Rwanda for travelers who want both gorilla trekking and classic open-plains game viewing.
Planning style
We recommend prioritizing a few strong destinations rather than spending every day changing lodges. Early morning and late afternoon are important wildlife-viewing periods, so a comfortable base and realistic transfer schedule matter.
