From initial anxiety, to later peace of mind, to surprise when getting off at the airport at the end of the trip. Our Kenya safari trip went surprisingly smoothly! 👇This is a [Kenya local tour feedback] . 1️⃣About the price ▪️Related to the number of people, hotels, and time ▪️We went in early February during the calving season, 2 people for 7 days and 6 nights, mid-range and luxury hotels in the reserve, a total of USD 4,600 . 2️⃣Car model and age ▪️Some roads are really bad! There is a section of road from Nakuru to Masai Mara with potholes everywhere, and my camera fell off the seat and was sacrificed ▪️Be sure to choose a Jeep! After the rain, there are many muddy roads, so don't choose a mini van. Yesterday our guide helped a mini van stuck in a mud pit to get out ▪️If the car is too old, it is easy to break down and delay time . 3️⃣Reliable guide ▪️Very important! Our guide has been in the industry for 11 years, is serious, responsible, and humorous ▪️When we see a new animal, he will turn the book to show us or use a translator to play Chinese, so that we can learn more about these animals ▪️When he finds a big animal, he can find a good position . 4️⃣Duration of safari ▪️There are generally two types: full-day and half-day. If you want to experience a night safari, confirm whether there is an additional charge ▪️We set off at 6 am at the earliest to see the sunrise on Kilimanjaro ▪️At noon, it is too hot and the animals are not active. You can go back to the hotel to rest, or find a safe place to move around the car . 5️⃣Confirm itinerary details ▪️Note the room type, ask for the hotel reservation code, and emphasize that you do not accept temporary hotel changes! ▪️Do not accept price changes, we have receipts and contracts ▪️Confirm that room fees, tickets, and meal fees are all included, and there are no additional fees! . 6️⃣About tips ▪️We give the guide USD 20 or 2,500 shillings every afternoon (standard USD 10/person) ▪️He will also buy water on the way and give us change to go to the toilet . 7️⃣Other details ▪️Charging in the car, there is a socket in each seat of our car ▪️Daily drinking water, bottled or barreled ▪️Although they are all jeeps, the windows will be different! Promise to give us a wider car window, sure enough! Our front windows can all be rolled down, while some cars can only be half-open, and our rear windows are also larger. ▪️If the weather is good, the glass can be completely removed (Figure 1) . 🎈Little surprise ▪️Today the guide took us to the airport, and the guy who connected us did a return visit, and it felt like they were really doing their job ▪️In the end, we even received a physical souvenir made from our photo in Figure 1! . ❌Disadvantages ▪️The guide was late twice, but there were also objective reasons, which are understandable ▪️The complimentary sunset experience is average, but the photos are good (P2)

The Aberdares are an isolated volcanic range that forms the eastern wall of the rift valley, running roughly 100km north south between Nairobi and Thomsons Falls. The Aberdare National Park was formed in 1950 to protect the forested slopes and moors of the Aberdare Mountains. While the park has elephant, rhino, black leopard, lion and the beautiful but elusive bongo antelope, it is rarely visited by safari companies and individual travelers. Soils are volcanic origin and red. There are two main peaks Kinangop (3,906m) and Ol Donyo Lesatima (3,999m) separated by a lengthy saddle of alpine moorland at over 3,000m. The high rainfall turns the roads to mud and you need a 4×4 to get anywhere. The park often closes in the wet season. There are many clear streams and waterfalls. Shaba National Reserve, which lies east of the road linking Isiolo with Marsabit, form a trio of unusual and attractive game sanctuaries very different from others in Kenya. Shaba National Reserve has a particular place in the history of Kenya game conservation for it was in this reserve that the authoress, Joy Adamson, died; her trilogy of books on the rehabilitation of the compliant leopard to a wild environment remained unfinished. Shaba was one of Joy Adamson’s greatest African loves; it was in this tranquil wilderness where she released the first hand-raised leopards Shaba took its name from the Mount Shaba (1525 meters), a volcanic mountain that became extinct around 5,000 years ago. Mount Shaba lies on the border of the reserve. Mt. Kenya is an imposing extinct volcano dominating the landscape of the Kenyan Highlands.

Things to absolutely not miss: ✨Make sure you visit the giraffe center to feed and connect with beautiful giraffes right next to Nairobi National Park. ✨Pass by the David Sheldrick elephant center where you can adopt and support an elephant and the whole organization. ✨Visit the iconic Masai Mara National Park for an unforgettable safari experience. Still the best experience of my life. ✨Check out the East coast of Kenya and soak in the beautiful waters of Diani beach in Mombasa, you will have the opportunity to take a train that goes through Nairobi National park and if you are lucky you will be able to spot wildlife. 💖Enjoy! . . . . #travelinspiration #unforgettableexperiences #thanksgiving #nationalpark #decembertravel #nyedestinations #newyearstravel #scenicspotguide #summervacation #springholiday #naturalwonders

### **📌 Must-Visit Attractions** 1. **Maasai Mara National Reserve** - **Great Migration (July-October)**: Witness wildebeest river crossings straight out of a nature documentary, complete with dramatic soundtrack (Lions: "All-you-can-eat buffet is served!"). - **Hot Air Balloon Safari**: A luxury experience, but budget alternative—rent an open-top jeep and let your driver take you "celebrity spotting" (lions and leopards are the real superstars). 2. **Amboseli National Park** - **Elephants + Mount Kilimanjaro**: Snap that postcard-perfect shot of "elephants with snow-capped mountains" and caption it: "Look! Africa has 'ele-phantastic' snowy peaks too!" 3. **Lake Nakuru** - **Flamingo Gathering**: A pink sea of birds—not for the faint-hearted, but a dreamy photo op for the inner child! 4. **Mombasa** - **White Sand + Arabian Vibes**: Lounge by the Indian Ocean and pretend you're in Dubai for a third of the price. 5. **Hell’s Gate National Park** - **Hiking + Biking**: The only park where you can walk freely. Don’t worry, this "hell" doesn’t even have AC (but the views are heavenly). --- ### **🍖 Foodie Radar** 1. **Nyama Choma (Grilled Meat)** - Kenya’s version of BBQ—succulent roasted lamb/beef served with Ugali (cornmeal dough). Eat with your hands for maximum flavor (hand sanitizer is a must!). 2. **Ugali + Sukuma Wiki** - The national combo: cornmeal porridge + sautéed greens. Cheap and filling—enough energy to (almost) wrestle an antelope. 3. **Mandazi (African Donuts)** - Lightly sweet fried dough, perfect with tea. Three for breakfast, and you’re safari-ready all day. 4. **Fresh Tropical Fruits** - Mangoes, pineapples, papayas… so sweet they’ll make you question reality. Bargaining tip at markets: "Sawa sawa?" ("Deal?"). --- ### **💤 Budget Accommodation Guide** 1. **Nairobi**: - Hostels for $7-14/night, some with cute gardens. Swap backpacker tales like, "Today, I almost got mugged by a baboon downtown!" 2. **Maasai Mara Area**: - Budget tented camps ($30-60/night). Fall asleep to lion roars (don’t worry, the tents are sturdier than your ex). 3. **Mombasa**: - Beachside hostels (~$14/night). Wake up to Indian Ocean views—Maldives on a shoestring. --- ### **🚨 Pro Tips to Avoid Scams** - **Maasai Village Visits**: Beware of "photo fee traps"—agree on prices before snapping, or risk paying "celebrity rates." - **Safari Drivers**: Choose licensed ones, or you might spend all day chasing the "African Fab Five" (antelopes, warthogs…). - **Bargaining Rule**: Start by halving the asking price. No matter how dramatic the seller acts, hold your ground: "Tafadhali! (Please!)". --- **In Summary**: Kenya = blockbuster savanna scenes + seafood feasts + wild adventures. Even on a budget, you can feel like the "King of Africa" (Lion: "Say that again?"). **Final Warning**: Don’t pee in the savanna unless you’re ready to outrun a lion… 😅 (Need detailed tips for a specific spot? Just ask—your virtual tour guide is on standby!) 🐘🌿

DAY 6-7 - Amboseli National Park Finale - Marvel at herds of elephants walking in documentary-like scenes. - Bonus: Capture the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak. ⚠️ Safari Tips for Practical Use 1. Tip your driver $5 per day. 2. Choose a safari vehicle with an open roof for the best wildlife views. 3. Pack windproof jackets for hot days and chilly nights. 4. Bring a camera with a 100-500mm lens or binoculars—absolute essentials! Summer (June–August) is the prime season for witnessing the "Spirit of Migration." It's the perfect time to photograph animals crossing the Mara River, offering National Geographic-level shots!
