Amboseli is one of the best locations in Africa to observe large herds of elephants in their natural habitat.
Recognised for its stunning white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters and delicious food, Watamu is a small coastal town located on Kenya’s northern coast along the Indian Ocean. Watamu is part of the Marine National Park, which is home to vibrant coral reefs teeming with diverse marine life, including colourful fish, sea turtles, and dolphins. Watamu is also known for its eco-tourism initiatives and exploring the nearby Arabuko Sokoke Forest, one of the last remaining coastal forests in East Africa.
Regarded as the jewel of Africa’s wildlife viewing areas, the Masai Mara is unmatched in its abundance of wildlife. It is for this reason a visitor hardly misses to see the Big Five all amidst stunning panoramic views of the savannah.
Masai Mara is renowned for its dramatic annual migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebra cross the rivers and traverse the plains in search of greener pastures. In addition to this natural phenomenon, visitors have the chance to immerse themselves in the rich cultural experiences of the Maasai people, offering a deeper connection to the land and its heritage.
