Why Kenya offers a Unique Experience to Tourists in Africa

Kenya is among the luckiest countries in the South of Sub-saharan Africa, North of River Limpopo. The East African country is well known as a first-class tourist destination in Africa and the whole world. Kenya’s wildlife is renowned and there is more that comes in handy to the incredibly marvelous tourist sites.

The vast Savannah and a variety of wildlife enhance a balanced terrestrial eco-system.  The historic culture of tribes such as Maasai, Turkana and Giriama among others has been the center focus of tourist enthusiasts for long. 

There are many eye-catching spots in Kenya. Lake Nakuru is famed as the natural habitat for pink flamingos. The incredible Rift Valley landscape offers visitors a unique and amazing experience. 

Tourists flock Kenya’s Coast to relax and feel the welcoming nature of the Indian Ocean breeze. Mombasa City is the perfect place to relax during winter. The City of Kisumu has a variety of sea food and close to the second largest fresh water lake in the world – Lake Victoria.

The world-class beaches found in the Kenyan Coast are of their own category and foreign visitors cannot complete their vacation in the country without paying a visit to Mombasa, Kilifi or Lamu Counties to experience a lifetime gratification. 

Uasin Gishu and West Pokot Counties majorly inhabited by the Kalenjin Community is famed for the large-scale production of milk and pure honey. The Kalenjin community also boasts of their magical running skills. Eliud Kipchoge – the acclaimed marathoner- hails from the vast Rift Valley region.

As a running region, Uasin Gishu is dubbed as the Home of Champions while Nandi County is branded as the Source of Champions.

It is only in Ikolomani in Western Kenya where you can find bull fighting contests. Apart from bull fighting, Ikolomani is inhabited by Isukhas and Idakhos who are well known in their captivating Isikuti dancing skills.

Kenya’s climate is amazing, with the exception of rainy seasons. Torrential downpours result to frequent flooding in some segments of the country. Sections of Elgeyo Marakwet and West Pokot counties usually experience landslides during rainy seasons.

In Africa, Kenya is among the favorite countries that foreign tourists prefer to visit. The election of Barack Obama, who has Kenyan roots, as the president of the United States of Africa was an added advantage.

Kogello – the village that nurtured the father of the first African US President was elevated to the world map, as visitors across the globe started touring the area. 

Top Tourist Attraction Sites in Kenya

Maasai Mara is undoubtedly the largest tourist attraction site in Kenya. This is due to the migration of Wildebeests and Thomson’s gazelle that send quakes across the Savannah, not forgetting lions which come to feast on wildebeests.

Tribes such as the Maasai, Samburu and Kikuyu have been acclaimed for sustaining the wildlife ecosystem over a long period of time. Their relative concord with the natural world deserves Nobel recognition. 

Tsavo National Park, which is the largest in Kenya, is home to a variety of wildlife. Situated along the Nairobi – Mombasa highway, the Park is a stopover point for tourists heading to Mombasa and Kilifi Counties.

Lake Nakuru National Park is famous over its massive flocks of pink flamingos. The Park was created in 1961 and hosts a variety of other wildlife species such as lions, waterbucks, white rhinos, leopards and warthogs.

Lake Naivasha is known for hosting more than 400 species of birds. Jacanas, African fish eagles and several species of kingfishers are found in Lake Naivasha. Lake Naivasha’s Hell’s Gate National Park is habitat to diverse wildlife.

Nairobi National Park is famous due to its proximity to the capital city of Kenya. The Park holds pride for hosting lions and giraffes that offers the City a unique ecosystem. The Park preserves some of the world’s most endangered wildlife species.

Why Kenya is a Great Country

It is beyond dispute that Kenya is stunning. The surrounding calderas, the spectacular Great Rift Valley, mountain ranges, the snow-masked peaks of Mount Kenya and the magnificent Coastal beaches depicts Kenya as the sanctified  country in Africa.

Kenyans must know that the country is well endowed. The country will remain a celebrated tourist destination, if Kenyans preserve the environment for the benefit of posterity.
