Kenya

I'm looking for a group safari in Tsavo and/or amboseli but can't find anything.
All I can find are small safari companies who offer individual safaris.
Any ideas?? Camping or lodge, overland truck or smaller group.

Hi,

We are a British couple (Laura and Tom), wanting to go on a safari to Lake Turkana on Friday 13th December. We've contacted a company called Game Tracker Safaris, who offer a great looking tour, to Turkana, Samburu, Chalbi desert and more places: http://www.gametrackersafaris.com/?page_id=203.

The minimum group size to get the cheap rate of £915 dollars is 4 people, so we need at least two more people to come. Is anyone interested? If so let me know at (Removed)

Thanks,
Tom

Hi
we are planing a self-organized trekking tour on Mt. Keya in February. The tour will be for about 8 days. Ascending via
teh Chogoria route, a circle via Austrina hut and descending via Shipton route. But I still have afew questions?
- Will a tunnel tent be ok or should I bring a dome?
- How difficult is the orientation on the circle?
- Can somebody provide a GPS track for the circle?

Thanks.

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

I was researching on how to get a visa extension in Kenya. Just before I was about to finish and figured out how, I decided to check Kenyan Immigration's Twitter account and saw a tweet saying "Please note that we no longer have Visa extensions, the maximum period being 3 months. Thank you. RT ^DM" https://twitter.com/ImmigrationDept</a>

I asked if this is true for Tourist Visas and they confirmed "Yes, now the maximum period is only 3 months. ^DM"

I just want to make sure if…

With so many operators and options out there, I thought it would be useful to write about my car hire experience for a safari in Kenya.

After a flood of web search results, I was struggling to distinguish between the reputable and reliable car hire companies from the rest. Price, condition of vehicles, emergency assistance were all considerations, but I could gather little useful information on a company's track record in these areas.

I corresponded with a range of car hire companies over…

Hi Thorn Tree

I have to travel to Kenya in 2 weeks but ive just realised my passport can no longer take any full page visas. there is room for stamps, just not the full page ones. Ive arrived in kenya twice and got visas overland at borders, i am now in london and wondered if i get the visa in advance, i can get a stamp which will fit rather than needing a full page visa.

does anyone know if this is possible?

thanks
