Planning your Kenya trip
Best time to go: Wildlife viewing is best from mid-June to October and late December to mid-March, during the dry seasons. Long rains fall from April to June, and short rains from October to December.
- Wildlife reservesKenya's reserves are known for lions, giraffes, elephants, zebras, wildebeest and buffaloes.
- Maasai Mara migrationLarge herds of wildebeest migrate between the Maasai Mara and Serengeti. Book months ahead because demand is high and lodging is limited.
- Coast and beachesDiani Beach is a major beach destination. Lamu and Malindi are other coastal towns worth visiting.
- Rift Valley and lakesThe Rift Valley offers dramatic scenery, while Lake Naivasha is known for bird life.
Scams to watch for in Kenya
- Pickpocketing in crowds and on busesThieves take money, phones or wallets from pockets and bags. In Nairobi, they may watch people withdrawing cash before targeting them.
- Higher souvenir prices for visitorsSellers often start with a much higher price for foreigners. Asking in English can also lead to a higher quote. Prices at Akamba Handicraft are higher in the tourist hall than on the wholesale side.
- Inflated taxi and local transport faresDrivers quote visitors inflated fares. This can affect taxis, tuk-tuks, boda-bodas and matatus. Without agreeing a fare first, it is harder to challenge the price.
