If you are in the process of planning your next holidays to Kenya and need some inspiration, please read on for tips of the must-do activities that no Kenya holidays should be without.

Going on a luxury safari trip

There are more than 80 different animal species in the safari parks and natural reserves of Kenya, so the opportunities for admiring these forms of wildlife are enormous. Moreover, you can now enjoy the best of a safari trip without giving up any of the comforts that you would expect from a luxury hotel. Accommodation is available in exclusive lodges that boast every amenity you might require during your holidays to Kenya.

Relaxing on remote islands

Kenya has more than 300 miles of coastline, most of which is unspoilt. During your holidays to Kenya, you can expect to find mile after mile of white sand beaches and turquoise waters, some of which are teeming with coral reefs and examples of colourful marine life. Lamu island is the ultimate relaxation spot in Kenya, with its UNESCO-designated old town, its remote beaches, excellent luxury accommodation options, and delightful cuisine.

Going on an adrenaline-laden holiday

Sports like white water rafting, kite surfing or scuba diving can offer a different perspective on your holidays to Kenya, while allowing you to discover the best of Kenya's natural scenery. For those who prefer a less adventurous holiday to Kenya, there is also the possibility of snorkeling, sailing, or going on a hot air balloon flight over the magnificent lake Turkana.

Improving your putting techniques at one of Kenya's many golf courses

Over the past few years, a number of golf courses of international standards have sprung up in Kenya. There are more than 40 golf courses in the country, most of which are set in spectacularly beautiful surroundings and offer access to facilities like casinos, swimming pools, and shopping arcades.

Spending a day cruising along the Indian Ocean coastline

Traditional dhow boats have been in use in Kenya's coastline for centuries. Today, picturesque dhow boats offer luxury cruises that can be one of the highlights of your holidays to Kenya. There are sunset, dinner, and night cruises available.

Kenya hotels

Since Kenya is earning a good reputation as a leading luxury holiday destination, it is not surprising to find a large number of first-class hotels offering lavish accommodation options. Some of the best hotels in the country include the Indian Ocean Beach Resort, located on a pristine beach in Southern Kenya, or the Hemingways, near Watamu Marine Park. Other unique accommodation venues include the Cove Luxury Tree House, where rooms are nestled into a baobab tree and villas feature sumptuous furnishings reminiscent of the colonial era, the Whitesands Beach Resort and Spa, and the Voyager Beach Resort, where accommodation is provided in original ship-themed cabins.
