Kenya is a country
which only needs three reasons to describe how beautiful
it is and why it should be visited, which would inevitably
make each and every discerning visitor reading this article
want to partake in a true and genuine African experience.
However, on the other hand we can only feel excited about
the tourism opportunities and would like to share with our
guests a little more than that.
Visit Kenya For Its:
1. Wildlife
Watching and Nature Safaris: Lets begin with the
word "Safari" used on a day-to-day basis when
wanting to describe a wildlife related itinerary in Africa
and even other parts of the world; the word stems from the
Kiswahili or Swahili language, whose linguistic birth is
in East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar), making the
region an original and authentic African wildlife safari
destination as rightfully described by the early European
Hunters. Kenya is a country where nature has been exceedingly
gracious. Within one country you can travel through lush
green forests, deserts, equatorial rainforests, montane
vegetation, mountains and witness thousands of wildlife,
birdlife and insectlife species being supported and sustained
within the respective ecology. Furthermore and coincidently,
Kenya also boasts the big five wildlife above the ground
as well as the big five below the Indian Ocean s.
So if Wildlife and Nature Experience is key for you, then
a visit to Kenya will provide an authentic African biodiverse
experience.
2. Relaxation,
Peace and Pristine Beauty: We at Roaming Africa Tours
& Safaris know that the daily grind of life: the daily
never ending business meetings, career challenges, cooking,
cleaning, house chores, groceries, family affairs and relationship,
can really take a toll on a human being. Well, if you feel
what we described fits your busy profile then making an
escape to Kenya is the right thing for you. You too need
to be served and pampered. You too need to have nothing
to worry about for 14 days of your whole year and have someone
else cook, clean and take care of you. All you have to do
is relax, receive good service, enjoy eating the most delicious
food cooked from organic farms, enjoy spectacular views
that personalities such as Prince William of England appropriately
described as "loo with a view", referring to the
superb accommodation views that would inject a guest's life
with peace and tranquility when visiting Kenya.
So if you want to take time away from daily hustle and bustle
or share time with your loved ones, then Kenya is the right
choice to visit and get away from it all.
3. Indian
Ocean Beach Vacation: Taking an Indian Ocean beach
- Kenya holiday is an experience of a lifetime because Roaming
Africa Tours & Safaris guests have the ability to select
exactly what kind of beach experience they would like to
have. The selections includes: remote Indian Ocean beach
Islands that are as far away from human contact as possible
where the only accessible mode of transportation is a boat
or an airplane or at popular beach resort destinations which
serve plenty of sun, white sandy beaches and food; the only
thing you have to do is know how to spend you time.
So if you want to enjoy your time on the Indian Ocean's
warm turquoise waters with a book in your hand while soaking
up the most sun and with plenty of white sandy beach to
take home to make up for the nostalgia you will face, then
Kenya is the right place to enjoy your vacation.
4. Cultural
Interaction: Do you have a diverse and open-minded
personality about other cultures and their ways of life,
and enjoy reading and learning more about people from other
parts of the world, especially Africa? If you answered yes
to any of these questions, come enjoy a genuine African
experience by visiting the diverse cultures, ways of life
and traditions of the people of Kenya. Meet the tall elegant
Maasai whose native language is Maa, and whose dress code
would want you to take a thousand and one pictures, which
you hope to display to your friends at home; also visit
ancient civilizations in Lamu, where the town has basically
stopped as time flew by. Come witness the rituals, traditions
and rites of passage of the Samburu people or travel to
Western Kenya to see the most well decorated natives of
Kenya, the Luo people.
So if you want to add a touch of true and first hand anthropology
to your credentials, then plan a visit to Kenya.
5. Outdoors
Activities and Active Adventure: Many of our clients
live schedules where there is little or no time to enjoy
the outdoors, especially if they live in metropolitan areas.
They often purchase clothing and equipment gear in anticipation
of pursuing an active lifestyle; most times the resolutions
never materialize because daily responsibilities keep piling
up. And it also happens when days off from work are possible,
that are not vacation time, it is wintertime and the temperatures
are freezing cold, and if this experience relates to you,
then you know you are not alone and many people face the
same challenges. The solution to the challenges is a preplanned
visit to Kenya. With the country laying right on the Equator,
there are no snow days or freezing cold temperatures, unless
if you are climbing Mount Kenya. Kenya offers a variety
of programs that engulf Roaming Africa Tours & Safaris
guest into a world never experienced before. Place yourself
on the plains of the Savannah grassland of Kenya on a horseback
riding safari instead of a Toyota Land Cruiser vehicle,
observing the beautiful Reticulated Giraffes in the distance
or watching a herd of elephant wadding in mud. Or even taking
up the challenge to climb the second highest mountain in
Africa, Mount Kenya. Those who want to take adventure to
the next level can undertake whitewater rafting on the Tana
River, mountain biking in Safari country while watching
wildlife along the way, undertake Camel Riding Safaris that
traverse at least two different ecosystems, bungee jumping
that pushes your heart out of your body, walking Safaris
that aim to bring an out of world experience, paragliding
from hilltops of Laikipia, fishing for huge bill fishes,
golfing in the Great Rift Valley with the challenge to overcome
the wind crisscrossing the great depression. The list can
go on!
So if you want to start and motivate yourself, while acting
on that New Year resolution, then a visit to Kenya is the
first step for you.
6. Business
and Conference Services: Many businesses and non-profit
organizations require business meetings and incentive programs
that would harness an environment that focuses on work as
well as will mesmerize the employees and business partners
during their breakout sessions. Kenya is the country that
can professionally deliver these services without any embarrassment
or disappointment caused to the visiting parties. Cities
like Nairobi, Mombasa can supply auditoriums, large conference
rooms with flip charts, overheard projectors, and laptop
computers within one single accommodation hotel. Breakout
sessions can be held on the Indian Ocean's traditional African
boat with live entertainment and meals provided on board.
Or at the nearby National Park restaurants like the Ranger's,
which enable visitors sitting on the dining table to discuss
the various agendas while watching the warthog and waterbuck
near the waterhole.
So if your businesses or non-profit organizations wants
to create a discerning experience for your clients, yet
keep costs affordable while having easy access to infrastructures
like International Airports and road systems, then selecting
Kenya as business hub is the way to go.
7. Historical
Experience: Kenya is a country that is as old as
the early exploration of the world by Romans: from 45 A.D,
Hippalus, a Roman sailor, was pushed to the East African
coast by the monsoon winds, to present day. Kenya holds
a historical treasure for all to learn and enjoy. The country
contains old extant forts standing strong, ruins that were
deserted by residents without any explanation, immigration
by European settlers who farmed and lived in the highlands
of Kenya like Karen Blixen, discoveries like the Thompson
Waterfalls at Nyahururu by Joseph Thompson in 1859, immigration
of people from India, Arabia, China as explorers and traders.
A meeting with the Samburu people in Northern Kenya will
enable you to learn about their Israelite experience and
Jewish heritage: how their families trickled down from the
Mesopotamia region thousands of years ago. Kenya and East
Africa as a region are also internationally credited to
hold the original hominid excavations of prehistoric humans
underscoring the theory of our existence to have originated
from the area.
So if your personality welcomes a true historical learning
experience with a mix of culture and lifestyle, fame and
fortune, success and glory then a visit to Kenya will broaden
your knowledge in a globally diverse world making you stand
out from the rest of your peers!
8. Eco-Tourism
Experience: More increasingly our guests are asking
us for a true genuine African experience vacation. An African
experience that is run by indigenous people of Africa in
a environment where your stay is at accommodations built
by indigenous people of Africa, and safari game drives,
food, service, lifestyle is set in their ecologically sensitive
homesteads, and where the revenue from your spending actually
and directly assists the indigenous population be self sufficient
and self reliant. Well, then you have come to the right
country. Kenya's Indigenous communities like the Maasai,
Samburu, Pokot have learnt that preserving their way of
life is something to be proud about and not compromised.
The indigenous African communities also know they need to
take charge of their destiny so they have started sending
their children to formal schools, have welcomed modern medicine
but also keep abreast of their traditional herbal cures,
and have participated in community development fostering
an alliance with other communities to create an eco-tourism
incentive like no other in Africa.
So if you want to undertake a true and genuine African experience,
filled with fun and an alternative to the common person's
experience, be assured that Kenya is the destination for
you. And your selection of Roaming Africa Tours & Safaris
as your host begins your desire to working with natives
of the region and underscoring an authentic eco-tourism
experience right from the start.
9. Geography
& Geophysical Experience: Not only is Kenya uniquely
positioned in the world but it also has wondrous geophysical
characteristics. Take for instance the Great Rift Valley
and the lake systems it supports: hot sulfurous, fresh and
alkaline, in one great depression. The Rift Valley lakes
attract hundreds of bird species yearly, which adds to the
whole unique experience. Lakes like Bogoria are also brings
across a unique perspective, seen when eggs are boiled within
minutes in front of your eyes, when placed in the geyser.
These kinds of experiences especially for children and youths
in the learning stages reinforces the ability to think about
the questions that are so pertinent and often overlooked:
where does the water come from, how does it get so hot,
what can be done with this water to benefit mankind, where
in other parts of the world does this phenomenon take place.
Another marvel of Kenya is the equator and often experienced
by most visitors: a make believe Cariolis Force. A Cariolis
Force is the movement of water under ideal conditions, that
if you are on the northern hemisphere (a step towards north
of the Equator) watching a tub filled with water being unplugged,
would make the water swirl and drain counter clockwise;
if you are on the southern hemisphere (meaning having to
make one step south of the equator) the water would swirl
and drain clockwise. This is a phenomenon that has to be
witnessed.
So Kenya should be the place on your list to visit to witness,
learn and enjoy the marvels often not heard about.
10. Marine
Experience: Most of us are often only mesmerized
by the beautiful hues from the sundowners like the ones
displayed early evenings on the plains of the Masai Mara
or the early mornings on the Kenya coast, where the clear
waters and penetration of the sun rays creates a beautiful
sparkling diamond like effect; this is just the icing on
the cake. Now imagine beauties far more spectacular than
anything ever seen in reality except on television. We are
talking about the magic beneath the waters of the Indian
Ocean: corals exist with rainbow colors as if someone conscientiously
painted these seemingly dead rocks with blue, red, green
and yellow; fishes deep down in the sea have evolved luminous
scales making the schools of fish look like a huge gigantic
fish, and where wild dolphins and whale sharks curiously
examine the commotion when your boat sails by and compliment
the scene with a very close and friendly encounters. This
is the reality and only a slight glimpse into the rare and
untold beauty of Kenya's unexplored marine life.
So if you enjoy watching fishes and corals outside of aquariums
and manmade entertainment centers, than a visit to Kenya
will quench your desire to get a glimpse of a world yet
to be discovered
