Duncan and Christine travelled to Kenya and Zanzibar
I can’t thank you enough. Endless trouble taken by Michele to listen before advising itinerary and selection was spot on for our party. Lewa was a perfect introduction to Africa and game-viewing. Meru, remote – several days we saw no other vehicles on game-drives and elephant visited our camp! Kicheche was everything you led us to expect. Beyt al Chai was stylish and friendly with an excellent restaurant. All logistics worked perfectly. Very reassuring. We’ll be back when we can afford it!
Kenya
Regions
The Mathews Range
Northern Kenya is dominated by arid desert and it is therefore quite a surprise to find lush riverine valleys and thick forested slopes in the heart of it all, but the Mathews Range is just that. Careful management of certain areas at the southern end of the range has created a huge growth in animal numbers, especially the elephants which have previously been victims of poaching. A visit to the Mathews Range should not be about game-viewing alone (except possibly the elephants), but rather more about the wilderness, scenery, exclusivity, walking and cultural interaction that can be enjoyed (including the famous ‘singing wells’). When people claim Kenya is ‘over-crowded’ with tourists, they clearly do not know about places such as the wonderful Namunyak Conservancy in the Mathews.
