Kenya
Out of Africa
When you think of Africa, Kenya probably pops into your head. It has more than fifty of the world’s most breathtaking national parks, harbours some of Earth’s most threatened wildlife and promises an experience that’s both spiritually moving and visually spectacular. ‘Greatest wildlife experience on earth’ — the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and escort of zebra, antelope and predators that accompany them.
INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT KENYA
- Mount Kenya is the highest mountain in Kenya and the second-highest in Africa, after Kilimanjaro.
- The greatest spectacle of the Great Migration – seeing wildebeest cross the Mara river where the crocodiles prey on them, is best observed from Maasai Mara National Park.
- The shores of Lake Rudolph, now known as Lake Turkana, were key to the study of human evolution, as it was here where several fossils, later proved to be related to the extinct species of the Hominini tribe were first discovered.
- The imaginary line of the equator bisects through Kenya’s Meru National Park, and while there’s no marker, there’s a certain novelty to game-viewing directly on top of the equator.
