 | An Introduction to Kenya Wildlife Safaris
Sometimes called the cradle of mankind and yet referred to as the whole of Africa in one, Kenya has been simply summed up as magical Kenya. Kenya is the home of the word safari, meaning an adventure into the wild or unknown. Did you dream of exclusivity, once in a lifetime safari experience in ultimate luxury? R&N Xplorer Africa Safaris interprets it in one word=KENYA.
And it is truly magical. The magic is captured by its diversity and contrasts. The single entity Kenya comprises of multiplicity of tribes (more than 40) all with diverse cultural backgrounds. Each of these tribes is culturally diverse in terms of cuisine, history, language and even location. Our Kenya wildlife safaris will include a visit to any of these tribes along the route. Any safari to Kenya would not be complete without visiting the tribesmen.
Tourism activities are distributed through out the country. However high densities are concentrated in the Mara, Coast and Laikipia. Laikipia and Samburu are a rich man's country. In this region are famous reserves of buffalo springs, Shaba and Samburu. In addition to these are private ranches whose luxury is beyond belief. A major plus of this region is the Sweet Waters Chimpanzee Sanctuary. In addition to this, Laikipia is the breeding ground of the Kenya's Rhino population. In Laikipia we have horse riding, lion tracking, Rhino tracking, camel riding, night game drives, visits to cultural bomas etc. Laikipia is also the home of Lewa Wildlife Conservancy (Lewa Downs) the hideout of Prince William. It is at Lewa he proposed to Kate Middleton.
Climate: The climate varies from the hot dry semi arid climate of the North and North Eastern Kenya to the temperate climate of the highlands. The costal region experiences hot and humid equatorial. The landscape is diverse giving the country a multiplicity of habitats and hence the best wildlife sighting anywhere in the world.
The large expanse of open savannah makes it easy for visitors to spot birds and animals.
