reserve in Kenya after the repair of an 85kms stretch from
Narok to Sekenani gate.
Africa is a continent worth to be discovered, it’s full of adventure, business, cultures
and a lot to see, learn and experience. Tours to Africa have been made easy due to the
connection ability with the major airlines into most African countries. The major
economies being Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Uganda and upcoming Rwanda. The
best airline hubs are Nairobi, Johannesburg, Cairo and Casablanca. Kenya safaris are the
most sought after in the world for a long period of time. If you haven’t taken and Kenya
Wildlife Safari then you have been left out in a lot of good things to do and see. Nairobi
travel sites and activities have been made easy by tour operators where you can book
online before you arrive and this makes it easier on E-commerce to book a Kenya Safari
Tour.
PressReleaseLeader-July 18, 2013-
Real travellers, telling the real story! for more testimonials please read some reviews on
cruzeiro-safaris.com trip advisor page.
The Maasai Mara road has been a subject of debate for a long time wondering why it cannot be
repaired. This road turned happiness from nightmare as a result of an active Narok county council
government which has done due diligence to one of the most lucrative sectors of tourism. This road
is now okay and smoother, though still being an all weather road..well something good has happened.
This becomes easy for the travelers who would want to visit the Lake Nakuru National park
connecting from Maasai Mara and those who would just want to a 3 days Maasai Mara Safari by
road .
The safaris in Kenya range from 1 to 17 days with the most popular being safari ndovu ‘elephant’ 6
days for people who have a short time and want to see more. One may arrive on early morning
flights and leave on late evening flights thus not incurring any Nairobi hotel accommodation costs.
Business travellers time is very valuable and a selection of flying packages to the Maasai Mara
National Reserve are offered or the Nairobi city tours for travellers staying in Nairobi and Mombasa
City Tours for travellers staying in Mombasa and Malindi. Groups travel or single travellers can
always join for January, February, March, July, August, September, October, November and
December for the 6 day safari to the Aberdares, Lake Nakuru National park and Maasai Mara
National Park. April, May and June are considered low season why? Because it’s the rainy season
and animals will have migrated to the south of the Maasai mara that is into Tanzania’s Serengeti
National Park. During this time Kenya receives a lot of educational (students and youth) and
missionary groups because the prices for the lodges and camp in Maasai Mara are very low.
However, its important to note that there are other major national parks and reserves in Kenya that
one can visit such as Amboseli, Tsavo West and East, Samburu, Sibiloi, Marsabit, Kakamega, Lake
Nakuru , Hells Gate, Aberdares, Mount Elgon , Nairobi National Park nearest to the city of Nairobi
and many others. All these parks have their distinct values and none is like the other. For example
Aberdares National park has a good forest cover and has also a study site where research on forests
is done. At their center in Kiandongoro the Kenya Forest Service and Research Institute (KEFRI)
runs projects on study of various trees, there is also a nursery center and other tree plantation.
Driving further in the forest after the electric fence mounted by the Rhino ark a lodge is coming up
know as Ndongoro Eco- lodge and will service to accommodation the scientist plus other travellers.
This area is assessable through Nyeri and is rich for tea and coffee growers. Finally, one can exit on
either gates to Naivasha spend a night and proceed to the Maasai Mara or Spend the night at
Sangare Farm house and then drive through the park exit at Naivasha and proceed to Maasai Mara.
Please note this can be a long journey and it’s recommended to carry packed lunch, assuming you
have water already.
A new adventure has just been introduced into the market and that is Gorilla tracking accessing
from Rwanda. Unlike in the past where most of the safaris have been from Uganda, it’s now possible
to squeeze a 2-3days safari package to Rwanda and track the gorilla from there. In addition Kenya
Airways and Rwanda Air have flexible flights to Kigali, Rwanda. Packages vary throughout the year
and it’s recommended to book and pay early because very few permits are issued per day. First
come, first served. It is also important note that Rwanda is one of the fast growing economies in
greater East Africa and most Rwanda citizens speak fluent French.
Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE) market cannot be ignored in Kenya.
MICE in Kenya is growing rapidly with new hotels coming up and more innovative themes being
realised in the world. Kenya has the capacity to hold meeting of upto 7000 people - but while that
number is expected to rise Logistics give most headache to organisers. These include: includes;
airfares, airport reception and transfers to hotels, hotel accommodation, pre and post meeting
safaris and excursions, Public address, Partitions etc.
While on Safari there are activities that one can do for example visiting a Masai or Samburu village.
These 2 are known to be cousins despite one living on the north and one in the south.
Kenya is also a golfers paradise with most golf course owners making millions out of it. Most are
members club and charge hefty fees to join – well it’s a rich mans game as we know it. It would be
good to note that one can combine their golfing skills with safari. An interesting program read
across is the Diamond Golf Safari “presenting the green carpet holiday” costing between USD5800
and USD6200 per person depending on the season.
