World"s Best Safari Vacations
The great plains of the Serengeti lie deep in the heart of Tanzania, stretching into the distance as far as you can see. Herds of wild animals run free in this untamed wilderness, and predators hunt their prey. The word Serengeti comes from the Masai word "Siringit" meaning "the place where the land runs on forever." These flat grassy plains make up about a third of the park along with the savannahs, ensuring that the area is full of plains game.
The Serengeti is also well known for the migration of the wildebeest. 2 million animals each year move clockwise around this 14,000 sq km area on the lookout for grazing land and water, followed closely by predators.
Those visiting here spend their days and nights amongst elephants, lions, warthogs, cheetahs, hyena, and impala, in a land of plentiful wildlife. Sitting beside your campfire, under an African sky brightly lit with countless stars, you take in Africa, a world left untouched by time. Discover the most exotic, historic and beautiful places in the world. Take pleasure in astonishing sunsets, bewildering landscapes and a hospitable, open-hearted people who call it home.
Kenya is another wonderful country to begin your grand adventure. Travel as an observer or become an active accomplice amid limitless opportunities to examine natural wonders and exotic wildlife. Explore illustrious archaeological sites and significant antiquities. Enjoy peaceful waterways and superlative architecture.
Kenya has been described as having everything that is gorgeous in Africa, from the desert regions of the north, to the scenic vastness of the rolling savannas. Don't forget the glaciated peaks of Mount Kenya or the white coral beaches and deep blue waters of the Indian Ocean. Particular holidays of all sorts are also available, from Camel Safaris in Samburu land, through walking safaris for ornithologists, to mountaineering on snow-capped Mt. Kenya.
The Maasai Mara is broadly known as the finest reserve in Kenya, where thousands of zebra and wildebeest migrate during July and August, thus providing an endless banquet for the larger predators. Maasai Mara is an unforgettable sight for visitors.
Throughout the country there are diverse ethnic groups and an equally broad range of wildlife. In the North, home of the Samburu people, the waters attract a plentiful array of wildlife.
Kenya's coast offers enticing attractions. Lamu Island offers beaches of white sand with archaeological sites that open a window on pre-colonial African history. Malindi provides fishing, surfing and diving.
A safari doesn't automatically mean that you have to rough it in canvas tents. You can choose from hotels, game lodges, tree hotels, and self-catering chalets in the most dramatic surroundings. All these also offer amenities like restrooms, clean beds and fine dining. Fast modern roads link one natural wonder to another. Most parks and reserves are easily accessible for big game viewing.
