Hotels in Kenya (Africa)

Sights

Incredibly diverse in terms of climate and relief, similar to those zoology albums we used to have when we were kids, with exciting animals on every page, this African destination is a natural paradise, with wonders at every step. Zebras, rhinos, elephants, lions, giraffes and countless other species cohabit the vast fields of Kenya, delighting tourists in their safari adventures. Among top destinations we should include the Maasai Mara, Kenya's most popular game park famous for the annual wildebeest migration, Mount Kenya, a great adventure for trekking lovers, Lake Nakuru National Park, a pink paradise filled with flamingos, Kakamega Forest, the only rainforest in Kenya and the list could go on forever.

Sounds

There is no need to worry for that "awkward silence" moment when in Kenya, as nature never sleeps. If the giggle-like chirps of the Green Wood Hoopoe will bring a smile to your face and the crickets will annoy you, the loud roar of the lions or the jackals howling will surely bring chills down your spine. Other than wild animal sounds, Kenyan folk music has a special charm, with a dominant role given to the guitar rhythm.

Smells

Kenya smells like the wonderful aroma of maize roasted by the side of the road, dusty grass and woodsmoke, dry land washed by rain, various scented shrubs and bushes, fragrant roses, the refreshing aroma of coriander and the nutty smell of cardamom.

Tastes

Many things can be said about the Kenyan cuisine, but the highlight of it is its flavoursome taste and high nutritional value. Using native spices and local ingredients, this East African cuisine is particularly healthy, reflecting the ethnic heritage of the inhabitants. They love their beans, such as maharagwe, their maize flour bread substitute that accompanies most meals, called ugali, matoke, made of delicious smashed bananas and sauce and similar other delicacies, common treats that any traveller should try.

Feels

Wilderness, freedom, an abundance of wildlife, local populations who fight to keep their traditional lifestyle, like the Maasai, the Swahili and the Turkana, through all these Kenya spreads beautiful, colourful vibes, emanating the vital energy of the place. A land of the simple things, of little joys, man living in close connection with nature, stunning sunsets and amazing experiences.
