Coinciding your safari with wildlife migration is important. On safaris one might expect to get a glimpse of wildebeests, lions, leopards, buffalo, elephants, rhinoceros and giraffes. The best time of year to witness the migration of wildebeests, zebra and gazelles is between July and October. They migrate from the Serengeti into the Masai Mara during that time.
Luxury safaris are unique in that people are flown in small planes to see the wildlife and country scenery from above. Once on the ground, often there will be furnished camp sites to stay in. They have tents with cots, a kitchen tent and many comforts of home.
Overland safaris are ideal if time is not a factor in the vacation. This type of safari in Kenya is great for people who are laid back and enjoy meeting other people. Overland safaris usually include more than just one country, so Kenya might not be your only stop. Camping in the wilderness is included in this safari type.
Bush and beach safaris are available also. Instead of spending most of the time in the savanna and grasslands of Kenya, time is spent on the beaches overlooking the Indian Ocean. The coastlines are beautiful and there are several fascinating islands to visit. People that go on this type of safari can get into the water to see the underwater world of Kenya.
Family safaris are a great experience for children. Many safaris for families include activities for children including meeting some of the local children. They will get to see animals like cheetahs, bat-eared foxes, spotted hyenas and antelope to name only a few. There are also birds that fly throughout the area such as vultures, secretary birds, ostrich, long-crested eagle, and African pygmy falcon. They'll get to learn about Kenya's wildlife and they'll take the experience with them for the rest of their lives.
Romantic safaris are great for newlyweds going on their honeymoon, or for married couples celebrating an anniversary. Couples will experience incredible opportunities that one would never thank about. Such as a candle-lit dinner out in the wilderness or bubble baths on the great plains under the stars.
So, there are all sorts of safaris to meet an individual's needs. Whether vacationing alone or with a special someone, a safari in Kenya is a great opportunity for anyone.
