Kenya Tourist Information
Kenya is a scenically diverse country and an idyllic destination for adventurous activities like safaris, climbing, hiking or diving. Kenya is also one of a few countries in the world with various kinds of animal species. It is not surprising why game-viewing is the most popular thing to do among tourists.
Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, is a lively city and home to the Nairobi National Park, which is abundant with wild animals. Mombasa is the country’s major seaport and cultural center. This coastal city has a mixture of cultures, architecture and entertainment. Nakaru is a farming town with a great vegetable market. Its main attractions are the nearby Lake Nakuru National Park, Menengai Crater and Hyrax Hill Prehistoric Site.
There are around 40 different tribes that make up Kenya’s population; all speak their own languages. Three major tribes are the Kikuyu, the Luyia and the Luo. The climate in Kenya depends on the areas. Hot and dry weather can be found in the lowlands, while the highlands are more pleasant with four seasons. The high season is from January to March whereas the rainy months (April to June and October to December) can be more pleasant due to the lower number of tourists.
