Best National Parks to Experience in Kenya
Masai Mara National Reserve – Famous for the Great Migration annually, when millions of wildebeest and zebras travel through the grasslands, the Mara also has the Big Five calling it home. The reserve is perfect for travelers planning a Kenya safari trip with emphasis on dramatic animal experiences.
Amboseli National Park – Renowned for its huge elephant herds and postcard-pretty scenery of Mount Kilimanjaro. An Amboseli safari is a photographer's and wildlife and scenery aficionado's absolute priority.
Tsavo East & West National Parks – These vast parks offer gritty, off-the-beaten-path adventures. Tsavo East features red-dust elephants, and Tsavo West for Mzima Springs and its scenery-provoking scenery.
Samburu National Reserve – Ideal for those seeking rare species like the Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, and gerenuk. Samburu also offers cultural interactions with the native Samburu communities.
Nairobi National Park – Only a few minutes away from the capital, this park is perfect for short safari day excursions out of Nairobi. Lions, rhinos, and giraffes can be spotted in the backdrop of the Nairobi skyline.
Best Time to Book a Kenya Safari
The peak periods for Kenya safari vacations are the dry seasons—January to March and July to October. The Great Migration in Masai Mara usually reaches its peak between July and September, which is thus the most sought-after time to book Kenya safari tours. But taking Kenya safari vacations during the green season (April–June, November) means lush scenery, smaller crowds, and great birdwatching.
