This article is a paid ad Hakuna Matata – Everything is fine. The famous saying from the movie “The Lion King” is the motto of life in Kenya. Everything is a little more relaxed there and without the pressure and hectic pace that we know all too well from Germany . But that’s not the only thing that makes Kenya a true holiday paradise in East Africa. In the endless savannahs of the country you can meet the Big 5 – elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard. And on the endless white sandy beaches of the Indian Ocean, you completely forget all the worries and stress from Germany.
The best travel destinations in Kenya
The majority of tourists who come to Kenya every year are of course looking forward to a safari. And quite rightly so. Because having seen lions, elephants and rhinos up close once in your life is an experience you won’t forget in a hurry. In Kenya, you can meet the wild animals in untouched nature today in the national parks. The most famous park is Maasai Mara, which borders directly on the Serengeti. Every year, you can see a huge migration of wild animals as they cross the Mara River in search of better grazing grounds. Another, completely different highlight of the country is the coastal city of Mombasa directly on the Indian Ocean. Strongly influenced by the Swahili culture, the coastal region of Kenya is very different from the rest of the country. Endless white sandy beaches invite you to take walks along the turquoise sea. Of course, you can also swim or even dive wonderfully in the lukewarm ocean. Afterwards, the delicious, freshly caught seafood found in the city’s excellent restaurants is the perfect way to end a wonderful day.
