Frequently asked questions about holiday rentals in Kenya

  • What are the must-see places in Kenya?

    Kenya offers incredible diversity! For wildlife, the Maasai Mara National Reserve is a must for the Great Migration, while Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks boast impressive elephant populations and diverse landscapes. Amboseli National Park provides stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro with its herds of elephants. For something different, explore the stunning beaches of Diani or Lamu Island, a historic Swahili settlement.
  • What are the best Airbnb and holiday rentals in Kenya?

  • What are the typical activities to do in Kenya?

    Game drives in national parks are a highlight, allowing you to witness the Big Five (lion, elephant, rhino, leopard, and buffalo) and other incredible wildlife. Hot air balloon safaris offer breathtaking views. You can also go on walking safaris, visit Maasai villages to learn about their culture, relax on the beautiful beaches, go scuba diving or snorkelling in the Indian Ocean, or explore ancient ruins like Gede Ruins.
  • What are the most popular Airbnbs in Kenya?

    Among the Airbnbs in Kenya, Once Upon A Tide - Family Home-, 3 Bedroom Apartment Samra K and The Nest In Karen are the most popular ones.

  • Which part of Kenya offers the most pleasant climate?

    The highlands, around Nairobi and the Rift Valley, generally offer a more pleasant climate, with cooler temperatures than the coastal regions. The exact best time will depend on your preference for sunshine versus rain, but the highlands tend to be consistently comfortable.
  • What are the best holiday rentals with a pool in Kenya?

  • What airport options are there for reaching Kenya?

    Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) in Nairobi is the main international airport. Smaller airports like Mombasa Moi International Airport (MBA) also serve international flights, but with fewer options.
  • What are the best rentals for families and kids in Kenya?

  • Are there specific challenges to driving in Kenya that visitors should know?

    Driving in Kenya can be challenging. Roads outside major cities can be poorly maintained, and driving at night can be dangerous due to limited lighting and wildlife. It's advisable to use a reputable driver or hire a 4x4 vehicle, especially if venturing outside urban areas. Always check the weather conditions before you start your journey.
  • What are the best rentals or Airbnbs with a jacuzzi in Kenya?

    The best holiday rentals or Airbnb with a jacuzzi in Kenya are Taita Hills Safari Resort & Spa, Honeymoon Hut and Dar Meetii Villa Watamu 4 B/r+swimming Pool+chef.

  • What currency is used in Kenya?

    The Kenyan shilling (KES) is the official currency.
  • What is the best time of year to visit Kenya?

    The best time to visit is during the dry season (June to October and January to March), when wildlife viewing is at its best and the weather is generally pleasant. However, the shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) offer a good balance of fewer crowds and pleasant weather.
  • What are some local dishes to try in Kenya?

    Nyama Choma (grilled meat) is a must-try, along with Mukimo (mashed potatoes, maize, beans, and greens), and Pilau (spiced rice). Try different types of ugali (maize porridge) served with various stews.
  • What emergency numbers should you know in case of a medical or security issue in Kenya?

    For medical emergencies, dial 999 or 911. For security concerns, contact the local police.
  • What etiquette tips are important when visiting Kenya?

    Dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites or rural areas. Ask permission before taking photographs of people. Bargaining is common in markets, but do so respectfully. Learn a few basic Swahili phrases – it's appreciated.
  • What are the best areas to spend a week in Kenya?

    A week could allow for a safari in the Maasai Mara, followed by a few days relaxing on the coast in Diani or Mombasa. Alternatively, explore the Rift Valley, visiting Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Kenya?

    A weekend could be spent exploring Nairobi's national park and museums, or enjoying a shorter safari in a park closer to Nairobi, such as Lake Nakuru or Amboseli (if you don't mind a longer drive).
  • What are the top shopping destinations in Kenya?

    The Maasai Market (various locations) offers handcrafted souvenirs. Nairobi has several malls with international brands, and you'll find local markets throughout the country selling everything from clothing to spices.
  • What are some off-the-beaten-path places to explore in Kenya?

    Consider exploring the northern areas like Lake Turkana, or the coastal areas north of Mombasa, such as Lamu Island, for a more secluded and authentic experience. Many smaller reserves and conservancies offer a more intimate wildlife experience than the larger, more popular parks.
