Few places can rival Kenya for the safari experience and few sights are more impressive than the Great Migration, the annual movement of more than two million wildebeest, zebra and other grazing herbivores across the fertile grasslands of the Masai Mara, which in turn provide the protein for leopards, cheetahs and vast prides of lions. Whether viewed from the back of a safari jeep, the basket of a hot-air balloon or on foot with a Maasai warrior, Kenya’s legendary game reserve never fails to disappoint.
Away from the Mara, Kenya’s parks and reserves are many and varied. North of Nairobi, Laikipia is at the centre of Kenya’s conservation efforts, its vast plains home to some of the country’s highest populations of endangered species, including African wild dog, black rhino and Grevy’s zebra. Elephants walk in Kilimanjaro’s shadow in Amboseli National Park. Samburu offers species found nowhere else in Kenya. Flamingos have returned to the shores of Lake Nakuru. Meru National Park has changed little since George and Joy Adamson famously raised the lion cub Elsa here in the 1950s. While the powdery sands of the Kenyan coast make for a scintillating sea and safari combo.
Kenya straddles the equator so enjoys year round warmth, the main contributing factors to its weather being altitude and the two distinct rainy seasons. The coast remains warm and humid throughout the year and experiences the same rains as the rest of the country. January through to March is the height of summer and the days are hot and dry, game viewing is prolific this time of year, this is also an excellent time for divers as visibility in the Indian Ocean is excellent. Low season starts in April through to May with the onset of the long rains, the coast is best avoided as it is hot and very wet. June through to October is the dry season, the plains are covered in lush grass which provide ample grazing for the wildebeest and zebra during the Great Migration, predators are attracted to the abundance of food on offer, making for some of the best game viewing on the planet. Days are warm and dry however evenings and early mornings can be chilly, layers are recommended. October is the last month of the dry season before the short rains start, the migrating herds start moving slowly back towards Tanzania although good numbers of resident herds remain. it is a great time to visit if you wish to avoid the crowds while still enjoying excellent game viewing. The short rains usually start in mid-November and only last a few weeks until mid-December, birding is excellent this time of year with many species in their breeding plumage.
