Claude Edmond | | They say once you have been there is always a place for it in your heart! Kenya does have everything to offer; from gorgeous beaches, to luxiouriously forested mountains, African bush land and desert.
When going to the coast, most tourists head off to the simple and definite success of Mombasa, all very well; but not the ultimate African beach experiences.
Mombasa hosts some night life; nothing compared to English clubbing, but definite entertainment- washed down by a couple of Tusker's! It is sometimes difficult to find out about the clubs; the most popular is Mamba beach which one our crew will take you to to enjoy your night life in Kenya along the coastal region.
Pirates- everybody has been there. It's very easy to get too and from clubs; just get a taxi, but watch out for the ones smoking ganja at the same time! Check the price before you drive, and always try to argue it down! Malindi has beautiful beaches, but less nightlife, though there is still plenty to be had.
The hotels of Malindi, Hemingway’s in particular have boasted the likes of Naomi Campbell and Bill Gates, and many others. Most hotels have guards on the beach front of the hotels, but venturing far down the beach after dark, is not entirely to be recommended! If you're doing a package deal, Mombasa is in very close vicinity (close in African terms)
On Nairobi, there are many guest houses and hotels; of varying quality, and price; whichever is best for you. The nightlife is typically African, there are many clubs, try the Simba Saloon, and Pavement- that's where we take our customers to enjoy themselves. I hope most of would like to give it a try you will enjoy your stay in Kenya especially once you have done a safari to our great National Parks.
The one thing you must visit is Nairobi National Park, a national park, that survives in the center of an up and coming (or so they say) city. This park is very special, unlike most small parks, it is not fenced off, and therefore, animals are free to come and go, so the park is very seasonal.
National parks; well you will never be stuck for choice. Game parks- the ones where you go to watch the animals are tourist traps. Watch out for Amboseli (on the border with Tanzania approx. 8hrs drive over potholed roads from Nairobi), being very small, you are guaranteed to see animals, if you can see past the hoards of tourist vans watching as well!
Massai Mara,(approx 5hrs on very potholed roads at times! a definite must! This is a very special park; if not shambolic, it is owned by the Maasai themselves, so unlike other parks there are no regulations as to off road driving, and night time driving; though this is not to be recommended since most animals are so much active at night.
Samburu,(approx 6 hrs again surprise - potholed roads at the last bit to the park!) with the beauty of the Samburu people, combined with the beauty of this exceedingly special park you can't go wrong! For the best game parks it would be nice to combine all of them to give you the insight of Kenya. I would recommend in particular Masai Mara, Samburu, Lake Nakuru National Park and lake Naivasha the home of Hippos .These are the only place where I have seen Lions kill, and the three cats all in the same day! The camps are good too, situated on top of a hill, with nothing but a slope separating you from the out stretching park below.
Kenya from an outward bounds perspective also has alot to offer; a few beach hotels offer you the PaDI course for scuba; you can be taught how to windsurf, indeed almost any waterspout.
Mt.Kenya, is a simple walk up, with many beautiful views! 3 different peaks to choose from, Nellion, Batien, and Lenana, each with superb views!
Well worth it! Of course there is always Mt.Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, for those not satisfied with the second high-test peak in Africa! Though I have to say I believe the views from Mt.Kenya are more spectacular than those to be seen in Mt. Kilimanjaro! Then there is the aberdares, a secluded forest! Well worth seeing, the money raised from the annual Rhino Charge off road contest that has graced the likes of Colin McCrae!), goes towards conservation of Elephants in Aberdares! Also worth it is the ranch of Laikipia, for the ultimate colonial experience; not on the general list of tourist must sees, which is why this place is spectacular!
Pick the time of year you are best suited for- December through to March are the hottest- then the short rains come!
If you go, you cant do all of it at once, but remember, there's always another time! Whatever happens Kenya will take a piece of your heart; if the unspeakable happens, a bitter one. You will always have Kenya in the heart, if you visited and had a good time! "

John Stephen Veitch | | Hello Claude
Was that an advertisement I just read?
Lots of Ryze networks including this one delete advertisements as spam. OFF TOPIC, not of primary interest to the network members,
But you did an excellent job of making what you had to say personal, and of talking to the members about the Kenyan holiday they might have.
I dropped a hint to you previously that I wanted to promote your Ryze page, but it's STILL not finished.
I have been encouraging YOU Claude, to introduce yourself personally. You should still do that. You have a story to tell.
There are not very many African members of Ryze, and no thanks to problems in Nigeria, people are very cautious about contact with African members.
On the other hand, with improved broadband access recently the number of Africans joining Ryze is growing rapidly. I've noticed with you, Claude and a couple of others, the willingness to try harder. That attitude is what's needed. In the long run, that will win through.
So I'm not about to delete your advertisement. I congratulate you on an interesting and informative post. Well done Claude.
