Kenya Travel Guide

We do not have a fixed amount to tip a guide. Tips are gratitude for a great service and work. Most of our guests tip around $15 -$25 per person per day but you can tip more or less depending on how happy you are with your guide or the budget you have set for your trip.

The Best Time to Visit Kenya for a Safari depends on your preferences and interests. The dry season, from June to October, is ideal for wildlife viewing as animals congregate around water sources. However, the wet season, from November to May, offers lush landscapes and fewer crowds.

Kenya is home to a diverse array of wildlife, including the iconic Big Five (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, and rhinoceros), as well as giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, wildebeests, hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of bird species.

Essential items to pack in your Kenya safari Packing List include lightweight clothing in neutral colours, sturdy walking shoes, a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, a camera with extra batteries and memory cards, and any personal medication or toiletries.

When choosing a safari operator, consider factors such as their reputation, experience, safety record, and the quality of their guides. Reading reviews from previous travellers and requesting references can help you make an informed decision.

Yes, most visitors to Kenya require a visa for entry. The Kenya Electronic Visa (E Visa) system allows travellers to apply for a visa online prior to arrival. Visa requirements vary depending on your nationality, so it's essential to check the specific requirements for your country before travelling.
