Discover The Wild Country Of Kenya
I just loved it, the weather, the animals, the wild countryside, the food and of course the great coastline! Kenya is a country to make some magical memories. It has the right amount of-old world charm and modern sensibility which makes it a great holiday spot.
The capital city of Nairobi, in the southern part of the country, has a large, modern airport and one best sky lines in Africa. It's a large city where you can shop, stay at a fancy Nairobi Hotels, enjoy multi-cuisine food, and see wild animals in one of the most famous parks in Africa.
The Karen Blixen museum is a global attraction in Nairobi since the movie Out of Africa was a biography on her was released.
The Kenyan Adventure
It was one of the most amazing once-in-a-lifetime experiences for me. I could be so close to the animals. I went to several big-game parks, but the one I loved most was in Nairobi itself. It's called the Nairobi National Park. I liked it because you can go with the park rangers on foot and get as close as possible to the animals. The National Park is about seven miles from the city center and there are many Nairobi Hotels which can make all the necessary arrangements to visit the park.
We were staying at the Hilton Nairobi and they had a very helpful concierge who fixed up everything. Our hotel is an unmistakable landmark in Nairobi, which made it quite easy to get around in the city. From Nairobi, you can travel to many destinations as the airport is very well connected.
The Masai Mara Park can be explored in a good three-day package. There's a lot to see as it's one of the biggest game reserves in Africa. The open savannah forest has a certain romantic history which takes you back to the movie "Out of Africa." You can even take a hot air balloon ride to get a wonderful, open view of the forest.
Did You Know?
The 2005 movie, the Constant Gardner starring Rachael Weisz and Ralph Fiennes was most extensively shot in Nairobi.
The Landscape- Holiday In Paradise
I booked everything through the Hilton Nairobi as they have a very good travel desk. Mombasa is a beautiful place, especially if you love the sea. There are some breath-taking sites there. In fact, the North Beach is quite close to the Airport and has plenty of excellent restaurants there.
I took detailed advice on how to travel to Zanzibar when I was at the Hilton Nairobi. The water is calm and beautiful and the traveling is quite comfortable. But what I recommend is to spend quality time in Mombasa exploring the beaches.
