If you’re looking for an adventure-packed trip, then Kenya is the place to go. There are many exciting and beautiful places to visit in Kenya, each with its unique landscape, animals, and culture. Here are our top 10 picks:

The Masai Mara National Reserve

If you visit the Masai Mara National Reserve, you’re in for a real treat. It is one of the most famous game reserves in Kenya and is located in the Great Rift Valley. The reserve covers an area of 5,000 square kilometers, which is more significant than five New York Cities! This land has over 200 species of mammals and 500 bird species, and several reptiles and amphibians. If you want to see any animal that lives on Earth, there’s a 99% chance that it will be found at this park!

There are plenty of things to do at this park, such as game drives (driving around while looking out for animals), walking safaris (walking around while looking out for animals), hot air balloon rides (you get to fly above all those beautiful animals) or even horseback riding tours through some areas where cars can’t go through due to rough terrain; your experience will definitely be unforgettable!

Tsavo National Park

Tsavo National Park is located in Kenya, just south of the Equator. It covered an area of about 14,000 square kilometers (5.4 million acres) and was established in 1948 as a wildlife reserve by the British colonial government. The national park has since been expanded to include two adjacent areas: Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West National Park. Both parks have become renowned for their wildlife populations, including lions and elephants (the latter reside mainly in Tsavo West).

Tsavo’s climate can be described as tropical savanna with high temperatures and humidity throughout most of the year; its elevation ranges from 1,100 meters (3,609 feet) along its eastern boundary up to 2,500 meters (8,202 feet). Due to these conditions—including warm temperatures—you can expect heavy rainfalls during much of your visit here anytime between March through June or September through December when seasonal changes occur which cause rainfall patterns on either side of those months respectively (this can vary depending on where exactly you happen to be at any given time, however).

Tsavo is home not only to many different species but also legends such as that told about Shetani. A local myth tells how this evil spirit transformed himself into a lioness called “Nyiri” who tricked humans into coming close enough so she could devour them like her kin do every night when darkness falls over Tsavo…

Amboseli National Park

Amboseli National Park is a game reserve located in southern Kenya, about 240 km (150 mi) south of Nairobi. It is Kenya’s second largest national park after Tsavo East National Park. The Maasai name for the region is “music,” which means “cold water.”

Amboseli’s most famous attraction is its large elephant population, which can be observed from many points along the park’s main road. Additionally, lions and zebras are also commonly seen here. Besides these animals, you may also spot buffalo, leopards, and hyenas roaming around and giraffes grazing on acacia trees more than 30 meters high.

Amboseli is home to various bird species, including ostrich-like sand grouse called secretary birds which can reach up to 1 meter.

Lake Nakuru National Park

Lake Nakuru National Park is a national park in Kenya. It is located in the Rift Valley Province, about 50 km north of Lake Naivasha and 130 km northwest of Nairobi. The park derives its name from the blue waters of Lake Nakuru, which are particularly vibrant during the rainy season.

Though it sounds like something out of an 80s romance film, this natural wonder draws hundreds of thousands of visitors every year because what they find when they arrive defies expectations: it’s home to one of Africa’s largest concentrations of flamingos (over 2 million), and their pink feathers can be spotted everywhere you look.

Nakuru means “dust” or “dusty place” in Maasai; thus, locals named Lake Nakuru after its dusty red soil tones caused by algae that grow on rocks dissolved by alkaline groundwater on which they live. This alga gives off a red color similar to blood when mixed with water; hence, there are so many flamingos here!

Samburu National Reserve

Samburu National Reserve is a national park in Kenya. The park covers approximately 5,000 square kilometers and is located in northern Kenya. The park has a wide range of wildlife species, from elephants to lions and cheetahs, and over 400 bird species.
