From our understanding, this is one of the best places in Africa to get up and close to wildlife. Tanzania get's busier and more visitors, and that "Bush Vibe" isn't as great there. With that said, we haven't compared this ourselves. We've talked about safaris all over Africa but found that this is the best place to get your first - great - safari experience.
Amazing diversity and for the most part, the park infrastructure is great.

We love Kenya as a safari destination. We've been twice and wouldn't hesitate to return.
There is a lot of wildlife in the parks in the south. You need to have some luck and be in the right season, but it is impossible not to be excited. I am not a real safari man, but even though I liked visiting some of the parks. The 'Bush vibe' is less in the south, it is all very organized. There are a lot of tours going around and Kenya gets a lot of tourists. The north is different, not many people venture north to the Turkana area. It takes time and effort to go there and besides that, most people go to Kenya for the wildlife that is more in the south.

Relatively safe country and quite developed 'safari' business. Sure, there may be other places and destinations, but Kenya is so far appears to be very good.

The beauty of the landscape and the variety of wildlife left me breathless. I have never been on safari in another country to compare, but in Kenya they really value the tourism industry and they work hard to make sure you have the best experience possible. The tour guides are well trained and very knowledgeable about all the wildlife and the parks/reserves. The staff at all the lodges also worked hard to provide a high level of service. Safety is also the highest priority. Also, in my opinion, no safari trip is complete without a trip to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust which raises baby elephant orphans. It's located just outside Nairobi and is the perfect way to either begin or end your safari experience. I will be going back to Kenya for sure!
