Kenya

Where the savannah meets the sea…

Segera Retreat

Kenya’s incredible appeal comes from its combination of outstanding wildlife, breathtaking scenery, beautiful beaches, first rate accommodations, and most of all hospitable and happy people. The country’s contrasting landscapes offer visitors plenty to do and see during their trip.

What we love: Patiently waiting for the first brave wildebeest to cross the Mara River, while crocodiles await their chance for a meal in the murky waters below. - J.H.

Kenya is home to lush tropical rainforests, vast arid lands and a splendid coastline, boasting beautiful coral reefs and a wide variety of colorful fish waiting to be discovered. Over seventy tribal groups reside in Kenya, giving visitors plenty of opportunities to experience tribal life, visit traditional villages, see ancestral dances, etc. Ancient artifacts and handicrafts are readily sold in tourist areas.

The numerous national parks and reserves occupy over eight percent of Kenya’s surface, making wildlife easily accessible. The big five (elephants, rhinos, buffalos, leopards and lions), can be seen in Masai Mara and Amboseli National Parks, among others. In the remote area of Samburu, you’ll come across animal species found nowhere else in Africa Kenya’s birdlife is just as spectacular and prolific. A great number of species can be found around the Rift Valley lakes of Naivasha, Nakuru and Baringo.

The undeniable highlight of the Masai Mara National Reserve is undoubtedly the annual wildebeest migration traversing the vast plains of the Serengeti and the Masai Mara. It is known as the largest mass movement of land mammals on the planet – with more than a million animals following the rains. Large prides of lions, elephants, giraffes, gazelles and eland can also be spotted in the reserve.
