Kenya safari lodges places to stay in the national parks

Check out the many lodges in Kenya

There are many Safari lodges in the national parks in Kenya so depending on which national park you choose to visit will determine the first group of safari lodges to look at.

Times between Safari lodges

So when you then look at the safari lodges in a national parks Kenya you need to take in account the time as you move between them. It is a general rule that you will go on a game drive early in the morning and one in the late afternoon and you are not allowed to drive in the parks after 1800. With this in mind you may stay at your first safari lodge in Kenya for 2 nights but when you move on the distance to the next lodge should be covered by the morning game drive so you arrive in time for lunch.

Ever since first visited Kenya I fell in love with the culture. The wild life, landscapes and the beautiful beaches.

Malindi town Kenya

When first arrived in Malindi beach resort I took time to take in some views in the town. Kenya is a place that many people do not think of to go to for a beach holiday but one thing I can advise you is go and see.

The local restaurants
Once you have settled in one of Malindi's hotels and recovered from you journey to Kenya make sure you go and explore the local area where you will find many inviting bars and restaurants. Many of the restaurants have an Italian style with dishes made using local seafood. It is well worth being adventurous and trying local food dishes you may be surprised at the rich flavour's.

Beach boys go explore
Be sure to include a trip to the reef at low tide but use a local beach boy guide. The reef is clearly visible at low tide but it is important to know when the tide is due to come back in, also the routes to get out to the reef can be tricky so therefor the use of a guide is important to avoid injury's. The beach boys will find or approach you when you walk along the beach or on to the beach it is important to agree a price in advance and this could be per person so barter and make sure all is clear they are friendly.

Local transport and taxi's

You may wish to get from your hotel to the town or other areas using local transport from small busses, TukTuk, motorbike taxis and conventional type taxis like in many places around the world make sure you agree the fare in advance and the end destination, If you have more than one stop make sure you inform the operator at the start as the price will go up a lot more if you do not.

The way that many holiday maker's think when it comes to Africa, the most common question I get.

Kenya is one of the best African countries to visit but like any place around the world you should follow correctly given advice but in general it is a safe place to go.

Are there nice beaches in Kenya
Well as far as beaches go it is a place of beautiful beaches with white sand and fantastic reefs. The area in front of this Kenyan beach hotel in Malindi is a marine park and has many reefs and at low tide you can go and visit the first reef out from the shore

Is the food ok
When you go to Kenya and stay on the coast you will find many types of seafood as well as other traditional African foods. My advice is to try all of the local foods that you can you may be surprised as how tasty they are.

What is night life like
African people know how to have fun so if there is a beach party happening when you stay on the coast in Kenya go to it get involved and dance.

Safari in Kenya so you need to use a guide as this is the best way to be safe and see the wildlife in the large open national parks in Kenya. There are many travel companies that promote Kenya safari holidays and the prices can be very daunting, this does not have to be the case we will help show you some options on how to get a good deal.

Book Kenya Safari with your beech hotel
When you book your holiday in Kenya one of the best ways to do this is find a good flight specialist as they can get better prices on flights that land in to one part of Kenya and then leave from a different airport on your return home. After you have booked your return flights eg: London to Malindi and Nairobi to London covering 14 nights, then you need to book your beach hotel for 7 to 8 nights.

When you know your beach resort hotel
When you have secured your beach hotel accommodation in Kenya you then contact the hotel, then ask them for information on a safari leaving them and travelling for 4 to 5 nights and arriving back in Nairobi where you will stay for a night or two before flying back home. Not all hotels in Kenya work with the guides so you may still have look around the safari guide page on this website may have information you can use.

It is important to have a plan before you book
Safari's in Kenya can mean long distance's of driving so for example if you were staying in Malindi and you wished to visit the Massai Mara then you would not drive to there from the hotel you would have to fly and then meet a guide. So from the coast you would drive through Tsavo east, Tsavo west and maybe Amboseli national park.

When you arrive in Nairobi
Nairobi is a place surrounded by Kenya's national parks and is where you should Visit Nairobi Big cat sanctuary and the Elephant orphanage located on the edge of the Nairobi national park.

Hotel in Nairobi
Make sure you arrange for the safari guide that you have a place to stay with him in Nairobi and arrange for him to take you to the airport for you return to home. The guides and other people in Kenya are very accommodating as long as you a clear about what you want.
