Wildebeest Migration
Over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras and several species of antelope make an annual circular tour between the Serengeti in Tanzania and Masai Mara in Kenya in search of greener pastures. The trek happens with a fair share of animal drama as the migrating herds attract the attention of hungry predators – the hyenas and lions that prey on the lame and sick animals along the way. The animals trek for four months (July-October) towards the Mara. ...more ...less

Money Exchange
Do not exchange money on the street. You may be approached by someone willing to give you a 50% to 70% premium for your dollars. This is what is known as the black market. It is illegal. Do NOT, therefore, get involved. Hotels, Camps and Lodges can change money but sometimes their exchange rate is lower. There are several foreign exchange bureaux in Nairobi offering competitive rates. ...more ...less
-
Tipping
Most people, when visiting a foreign country, like to be given some guidelines regarding tipping. Bearing in mind that tipping is an extremely personal matter, the below are mere guidelines. Ultimately, expectations are left to the discretion of the individual safari member. However, if in doubt, please check with either your hostess or host for advice. ...more ...less
-
Anti-malaria medication
We strongly recommend that you take anti-malaria medication. Malaria is rare in most highland areas, but traveling in the hot bush, and coastal areas requires precautions. If, on your return home, you develop influenza symptoms, please see your doctor immediately as you may well have contracted malaria.
-
Credit cards
Credit cards such as American Express, Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in most camps, hotels and lodges.
-
Punctuality
Please be on time when you meet at your mini-vans or land cruisers for game drives.
-
Driver guide/safari guide
Get to know both your driver-guide and your Safari guide. Their knowledge of Africa is a bottomless treasure of travel. Be friendly. Sometimes, at the outset of a safari, the driver-guides can be shy and need encouragement to open up. Ask a lot of questions. Don’t be afraid to make requests of both your driver-guide and your safari guide.
-
Clothing
Safari attire is casual and comfortable. Dress mainly for outdoor comfort with a change of informal clothes for the evening. Evenings and early mornings can be chilly especially on the mountain areas. Warm jerseys, socks and walking shoes or sneakers are recommended. Footwear should be low-heeled and comfortable. There is not much walking and you stay in your vehicle during game runs. Bring a light-weight raincoat and a hat for sun protection. Roof hatches on safari vehicles are left open whilst game viewing. Although evening wear is informal, some Clubs and restaurants in Nairobi and on safari do require gentlemen to wear a tie and jacket for dinner, and ladies, equivalent evening attire.
-
Drinking water
In Nairobi and on safari, we recommend that you do not drink the water from the taps and even out of the thermos or flasks provided. We recommend instead that you purchase bottled water at the lodges, camps & hotels. Use mouthwash to brush and wash your teeth. Ice is generally frozen from boiled water and is ok for consumption.
-
Food
Food in Kenya is delicious, varied and plentiful, succulent crayfish from the Indian Ocean, smoked sailfish (Kenya’s equivalent to smoked salmon), English roast beef, Molo lamb, and much more. Kenyas’ famed fruits abound – pineapples, pawpaw, mangoes, avocados, passion fruits, banana, pears, and strawberries to name a few. Fresh vegetables are equally abundant. The hotels, lodges and camps in which you stay are renowned for their high standard of cuisine. However, a change of climate and traveling can, in a few instances, cause travelers diarrhea, a minor complaint not comparable in severity with ‘gypie tummy’. Eating in moderation, avoiding cold buffet lunch tables that have been exposed to the mid-day sun, and fasting for a day (whilst drinking plenty of bottled water) should you be stricken, are sensible precautions.
-
Sensible safekeeping of passport and valuables
Please keep your passport and money on you at all times. Never leave money or valuables in your room or in your vehicle. You can keep valuables in security boxes at the hotels and lodges. Be especially careful whilst in camps, hotels and lodges and on special excursions such as boat-rides. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry.
