I've been to Kenya, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia in the past. Areas such as the Masai Mara in Kenya rival anything the other destinations can offer, and there's simply nothing to beat the visual experience of the 2 million flamingo at Lake Nakuru or Lake Bogoria, when numbers are high, (the number does fluctuate with the weather, time of year and level of water in the lake). On the other hand it's often argued that Kenya is more "touristy", that it's less "wild" than say, the Luangua Valley in Zambia, - well probably true, but then it's more accessible, the infra-structure is better and it's less expensive. I'd also suggest the game-viewing is perhaps better, as the open plains are condusive to seeing animals from afar (in Chobe N.P., Botswana, and Hwange N.P. , Zimbabwe, I found animals were only visible when they emerged from the bush to cross the road). They are also more used to tourist disturbance, - not so skittish. So it gets a good rating in my book!

Hard to beat Kenya as a safari destination. It has it all.

Kenya offers an emense high diversity of wildlife and scenic beauty. Mountains and planes, savanna and forests, the Big Five, huge herds of wildbeasts, whatever you want, you find it. Prices are reasonable, transportation is no problem.

Kenya meet all my expectations on accommodations, services, guides, drivers, food, and specially on the safaris. I think the most important think is do arrangements with a local company plenty of experience capable on connections and services continuity from one park to another.

The safari destinations in Kenya vary greatly. They are sometimes busy, but, if you choose with care, you can usually achieve a great "bush vibe".

A country with endless opportunities. Kenya’s rich diversity of wildlife means that no two experiences in the wild are ever the same.
Kenya is a good place for safaris. It is compromise between a certain level of organiztion (some call it civilization) the bush vibe feeling.
There are places in africa which are more remote more basic but if you in wildlife spotting and photograhy you won't realize it on (good) the pictures taken.

Nice climate, wide open spaces in safari areas. Many tourist Jeeps and mini-busses on the lodges.
