Top Safari Destinations and Wildlife Highlights
Kenya offers the ultimate African safari experience. Our tours take you to the country’s most breathtaking national parks and reserves to see the best wildlife and scenery this region has to offer:
Maasai Mara National Reserve
Famous for the Great Migration when over a million wildebeest cross the Mara River. Also home to all Big Five animals including lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos, and rhinos.
Amboseli National Park
Known for large herds of elephants with Mount Kilimanjaro as the backdrop. Wildebeest, buffalo, big cats and more also abound.
Tsavo National Park
Spot the Big Five across this massive park’s diverse ecosystems. Uniquely colored red elephants roll in the dust.
Lake Nakuru National Park
Ideal for birdwatching flamingos and spotting endangered rhinos plus lions, giraffes and hundreds more species.
Samburu National Reserve
Remote and pristine wilderness harboring unique species like Grevy’s zebra, Somali ostrich, and reticulated giraffe.
Ideal Time to Visit Kenya’s Parks and Reserves
While Kenya offers epic safaris year-round, some periods are better than others for wildlife viewing:
- The Great Migration from July to October brings immense herds of wildebeest and zebra to the Maasai Mara. Animals congregate around the Mara River crossings.
- From June to October, the dry season offers ideal game viewing as wildlife gathers at water sources. Weather is cooler and drier.
- January and February are also popular dry months with low crowds. Wildlife is still plentiful before the rainy season.
- The April to May and November to December shoulder seasons provide greener landscapes and fewer crowds. Prices are lower too.
