Kenya safari tours advices right now
Kenya safaris tips today? Africa is a fabulous location if you are looking for raw nature exploration. If desert – and its accompanying gobsmacking scenery – is your thing, a trip through Namibia and Botswana is perfect. Enjoy the incredible vastness of Namibia, the dunes of Sossusvlei, wild coast of Swakopmund, the incredible, game-rich Etosha and a visit to a local bushman community. From there, you head into the lush Caprivi Strip, going on a game drive through the parks between Botswana and Angola that form an important part of the migratory corridor for elephants and other wildlife. Then it’s off to the breath-taking Okavango Delta, followed by the barren beauty of Makgadikgadi. Spend two days exploring Chobe, which boasts one of the largest elephant populations in Africa, followed by two days in Hwange (Zim). You’ll see elephant and more magnificent elephant! And that’s beside all the other African wildlife favourites who call these parks ‘home’.
How to communicate with the locals: If you worry that you will not get along with the locals, you must know that they are all former European colonies. In Tanzania and Kenya, English is the official language. In Madagascar, French is the official language, and in Cape Verde, Portuguese. This does not mean that you cannot understand English with the latter. In the tourist areas you will find speakers of Italian, French and German. Health Risks: There are many legends and myths about this topic. You have to keep in mind that all travelers should have the usual vaccines (as a child), as well as a vaccine against hepatitis A and typhoid. There is a risk of malaria in some areas and prophylactic medication (eg Malarone) is recommended. In Kenya there is also a risk of yellow fever, so you must have a yellow card to prove that you are vaccinated against this malaria. See extra details on Tanzania Safaris. Preparing for a vacation in Kenya: When to visit the beautiful African country: Being a neighbor to Tanzania, the climate is identical. It is best to visit Kenya during June-September or January-February, during their dry seasons. How to get to Kenya: Kenya has two international airports, served by many major airlines (such as KLM, Air France, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines etc.) – Mombassa (on the coast) and Nairobi (the capital). Mombassa is a better option, as there are numerous charter flights from Western Europe. As expected, we do not have direct flights, but there are many variants from Milan, Rome, Istanbul and London (and until then you get a low cost flight).
