Kenya is a country in East Africa with coastline on the Indian Ocean. It encompasses savannah, lakelands, the dramatic Great Rift Valley and mountain highlands. It's also home to wildlife like lions, elephants and rhinos.

Best time to visit

Kenya’s wildlife parks can be visited throughout the year, however, the best wildlife viewing is observed during the dry seasons from January to March and July to October. The second dry season coincides with the phenomenal spectacle of the Great Wildebeest Migration.

Wildlife

Kenya is famous for the Great Migration which witnesses millions of animals traveling through the Maasai Mara Reserve to the Serengeti in search of greener pastures. It is estimated that around 1.3 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebras and 18,000 eland antelope make the journey annually. Over 250,000 wildebeests die each year as a result of drowning, from general weakness, attacks by predators, or from injury due to the stampede. Despite this massive loss, there are still nearly 400,000 calves born each year.
