It’s no coincidence that Kenya is one of the top safari destinations in the world.
Show it to the world!

Above: Most Kenyans have adopted more or less modern life styles. This is especially true in Nairobi, which is one of the most developed cities of Africa. See all Nairobi photos.
Above: a zebra at Amboseli National Park, the second most popular wildlife park after Masai Mara. They are relative close, reason why many tourists visit both in one itinerary. Here’s the full Amboseli picture gallery.
Above: The tusks are the symbol of Mombasa, Kenya's second city at the coast. Mombasa has a beautiful old town centre with the famous Fort Jesus at the core. View all Mombasa photos.
Above: A woman from the Kuria tribe, singing and dancing. Kenya has over 40 tribes, though some count even as much as 70 or 100 tribes. See more pictures of Kenya people.

Above: The island of Lamu has undergone Arab influences for more than a thousand years. It's one of the most colorful places in Kenya. View additional pictures of Kenya.
I think this Kenya picture gallery makes clear why I’ve really fallen in love with the country...
Kenya is diverse, even confusing. Next to poverty and the bad health situation you see a basically happy and relaxed people who enjoy the simple pleasures of life and always make time for you. There are tribal conflicts, but also a basic hospitality and friendliness towards strangers.
As Danish author Karen Blixen, who wrote the novel ‘Out of Africa’ on which the famous movie was based, hinted at this double nature once: "Africa, amongst the continents, will teach it to you: that God and the Devil are one, the majesty coeternal, not two uncreated but one uncreated, and the natives neither confounded the persons nor divided the substance."
