4-Day Exotic Kenya – Luxury

The best time to visit Kenya for a safari is during the dry seasons:

• June to October: Ideal for wildlife viewing, particularly the Great Migration in the Masai Mara.
• January to February: Also a good time for safaris, with dry conditions and excellent visibility for game drives. The wet seasons (March to May and November) bring lush landscapes and fewer tourists, but some areas may be harder to access due to rain.

Kenya is generally safe for tourists, especially in popular safari areas and tourist destinations. However, it’s important to stay informed about current conditions, follow the advice of your tour operator, and avoid areas that may have travel advisories. Security in national parks and tourist areas is typically robust, and guided tours are conducted by experienced professionals.

For a Kenya tour, especially if you’re going on safari, pack the following:

• Clothing: Lightweight, long-sleeved shirts and pants in neutral colors, a warm jacket for early mornings and evenings, a rain jacket, and a hat for sun protection.
• Footwear: Sturdy hiking boots for any walking safaris or trekking, and comfortable shoes for general use.
• Accessories: Sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, a good camera with a zoom lens, and binoculars for wildlife viewing.
• Daypack: For carrying essentials like water, snacks, and personal items during game drives and excursions.
