Kenya is special, it is on his own. Very hard to compare Kenya with other countries, even from Africa. Visit it and you will understand why.

You will encounter a complete different world: savage, primitive, incredible beautiful(remember the movie “Out of Africa”-Karen Blixen, the screenplayer was born in Kenya) . Do not dare to say “simply poetry”, it is real. You will melt with the nature, you will feel a strong emotion, penetrating your saw, in an unique experience.

Back to numbers: 583 000 sqkm, whwere you can find not less than 11 nature parks. Among them Tsavo,one of the world biggest.

Do not think that is impossible to find luxury hotels in Kenya! I will recommend Mombassa, on the coast of the Indian Ocean. It is very well known for its beaches surrended by palm trees and for the blue waters of the Indian Ocean. Mombassa itself is a strange combination between old( it was discovered and founded by Vasco da Gama in 1498) and modern.

On Nyali beaches you can admire the coral reefs from transparent boots. Here you can find maybe the best restaurant from Kenya : the Tamarind. Do not forget to eat fish and sea fruits, as you are in the honeymoon, remember? They have special effects and are very good cooked indeed.

Do not worry for the cuisine: you can choice between french, indian(it is a strong minority of Indians), chinese, mixed and local. You will not be disappointed choicing the lasts, you will even ask for the recipes! Taste Nyama Choma, it is absolutely delicious!

Not far from Mombassa there is the crocodile farm. Do not miss it, there are not many similar on Earth!

Never forget your camera, as you always have something to take! Visit Bambur, a seminatural park, but do not go alone. Take a guide better . Visit Lake Nakuru, surrended by hundreds of pink flamingos.

You can hire cheap good cars, as the roads are practicable, but not excelent. Do not travel in april-june because heavy rains. Do not be afraid of four or five stars hotels, the rates are completely acceptable, 30-40 euros for each person every night. Take care permanently to your money and cards. You can buy very nice handicrafts as souvenirs! Do not forget to handle for getting good prices!
