Welcome to Kenya.

Kenya is still the primary focus of all adventure travel in Africa.

It is one of the finest--and undoubtedly the most famous--safari destination in the world.

Safari, however, is by no means the only reason to visit Kenya, for the attractions of its rich culture and diverse environments are considerable.

Kenya is situated right along the equator, on the eastern coast of the African continent.

Kenya's geography is marvelously varied.

While much of northeastern Kenya is a flat, bush-covered plain, the remainder of the country encompasses pristine beaches, scenic highlands and lake regions, the Great Rift Valley, and the magnificent Mount Kenya.

Although Kenya's varied environments experience a wide variety of climate conditions, the temperature remains comfortably warm year-round.

Much of Kenya experiences heavy rainfall from March through May and, to a lesser extent, from October through December.

The best time for most outdoor acitivities (including safari and mountain climbing) is during the dry season (June-September).
