A trip to Kenya delivers the real deal: sweeping savannahs, close-up wildlife encounters, and vibrant local culture. You’ve got the classics: the Maasai Mara’s big cats, Amboseli’s elephants with Kilimanjaro as a backdrop, and city buzz in Nairobi. But you can also head off track to places like Samburu, where leopards slink through the dry riverbeds and traditions run deep.

With Rough Guides’ tailor-made travel in Kenya, local experts design every journey around what excites you, from following the Big Five to relaxing on Diani Beach or hiking in the remote Chyulu Hills.

Things to know before your Kenya trip

What does a trip to Kenya look like?

You might start in Nairobi, exploring markets and museums, then head south to Amboseli for a sunrise over Kilimanjaro. The Maasai Mara offers some of Africa’s best wildlife watching, especially during the Great Migration.

For something different, go north to Samburu or even Lake Turkana, where the landscapes get raw and the tourists vanish. End it all on the white sands of Diani Beach or wander through the lush Kakamega Forest. Every trip is different, and that’s the point.
