Information & Tips for Kenya
Kenya offers diverse attractions, including iconic safaris in Maasai Mara, Amboseli, and Tsavo National Parks, as well as the coastal beaches of Mombasa and historical sites in Nairobi. The currency is the Kenyan shilling (KES), and while credit cards are accepted in tourist areas, cash is commonly used in local markets. Prices can vary, with safaris and upscale accommodations being expensive, but budget-friendly options are available for food and transport. The weather is generally warm and sunny, with a rainy season from March to May, making the best time to visit typically from June to October.
Kenya’s transport infrastructure is a mix of modern and traditional systems. In cities like Nairobi, public transport is mainly through matatus (minibuses) or ride-hailing apps, though traffic congestion can be a challenge. The city’s train network is expanding, offering another option. For intercity travel, long-distance buses and flights are common, with buses being more affordable but slower. Domestic flights are fast and convenient, especially for accessing remote areas like the coast or safari destinations. However, road conditions can vary, and travel outside urban centres may require more time or planning.
