we stayed at the bamburi beach hotel at bambury, the waiters where the best.
the kenyan people are the friendlest people i have even met and even though the country is so poor they are the cleanest and proudest people i have even met, i say cleanest because they dont have a lot and you see people in our country who have a lot more than them and just dont look after themselfs or their kids.

i went to kenya in january 2007, it was brilliant.............. we went on a four day safari first and that was the best thing about the holiday. seeing the animals in their own habitat and getting up close was out of this world. if you ever get the chance to go i would highly recommend it. the safari was done by samok safaris and our drive Bukura was great at spotting lots of things and very knowledgable. we stayed at the bamburi beach hotel at bambury, the waiters where the best. the kenyan people are the friendlest people i have even met and even though the country is so poor they are the cleanest and proudest people i have even met, i say cleanest because they dont have a lot and you see people in our country who have a lot more than them and just dont look after themselfs or their kids. if you do go to kenya take plenty of pencils, pens and notebooks to hand out to the children, this can be quite upsetting as they fight over what we take for atvantage but to see their little eyes light up no words can describe what you feel. if you like any other information on tis holiday i had please get in touch.
Advantages: friendliest people in the world Disadvantages: beach boys hassling you.
on arrival in the hotel you are treated like royalty and given drinks and as much help as you can take!! the hotel is clean and rooms are not majorly luxuriuos but you have what you need. who spends much time in the hotel room anyway!
when you first arrive there are guards on the gates but you soon realise this is to keep the beach boys out. if you even look over the balcony of the hotel you are being hassled to go and buy things. they are only ... ...much.we did go on the beach for a walk and soon learnt that you should take no money and say you have already bought everything and have no money. some of the boys came for a walk with us and showed us alsorts of marine life we would never have known existed if they hadnt pointed it out to us so we bought some name engraved keyrings from him, they start off giving you a ridiculously high price, but if you then go in with a ridiculously low price ...

The advantage of staying in Nairobi is that it?s easily accessible to nearly all the game parks. You can either choose to go to Mount Kenya (central Kenya) Maasai Mara.
For a much more adventurous journey, you can go to Amboseli National park. What I like about this park is that more than half the time you can be able to see the Elephants, and lions, from there you can go down to the Tsavo East National park and if you have time then cross to the Tsavo west and head to Malindi and back to Mombasa or simply go to Mombasa from Tsavo.
In Mombasa stayed in BamburiBeach hotel. I?d definitely recommend this place to anyone. They have very good entertainment in the evenings and very friendly staff. It?s located on the North coast about 15 minutes drive to the city centre. Another hotel is the Travellers Beach hotel, Nyali Beach or the Whitesands hotel ...
