The place

Big-cat country — the rolling savannah of the Masai Mara, the flamingo lakes of the Rift Valley and the elephants of Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, the original African safari.

Kenya is where the safari was born. The Masai Mara — the northern extension of the Serengeti — is the stage for the Great Migration (roughly July to October), when over a million wildebeest and zebra cross the Mara River past waiting crocodiles, with lion, cheetah and leopard never far behind. Amboseli, in the south, frames its big elephant herds against the snows of Mount Kilimanjaro across the Tanzanian border. The Great Rift Valley adds Lake Nakuru's flamingo flocks and rhino sanctuary, while Lake Naivasha offers boat safaris and walking at Crescent Island. Encounters with the Maasai people, hot-air balloon flights over the Mara at dawn and a finish in Nairobi (with its elephant orphanage and giraffe centre) complete a classic Kenyan circuit.

Good to know

Before you go.

Indian passport holders need a Kenya eTA (electronic travel authorisation) — applied online before travel.

A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required; malaria prophylaxis is advised.

Game drives are in 4x4 vehicles with pop-up roofs; pack neutral-coloured clothing and a zoom lens.

Kenyan Shilling (KES) — USD is widely accepted at lodges; carry small notes for tips.

Domestic light-aircraft hops (e.g. Nairobi-Mara) save long road transfers.
