    5 Stars Swimming with Wild Dolphins Review with images 20/09/2004

    Shimoni – Swimming with Dolphins How can I put into words what this day was like – well here goes, I will give it a try. We had booked to go on a short break to Kenya, as we live in Dubai it’s only a short flight which suits me as I hate flying. Prior to leaving I was browsing on the internet and found some interesting information about swimming with Dolphins in the Indian Ocean and logged onto the company’s website: www.dolphindhow.com to find out more. There are no guarantees here that you will see or swim with Dolphins but they do state that they have a 95%+ success rate. Good enough for me ... more

    Kenya is undoubtedly a beautiful country - but I want to tell you about the Kenya that not many people go and see. The Kenya I visited for part of my time over Christmas 2001. **A BUSMAN’S HOLIDAY** The whole purpose of my visit to Kenya was work related – my antics on holiday only came about because if I’m owed holiday I may as well take it while I’m there as who knows the next time I’ll be able to get there. Bite the bullet, as they say, and do everything in one fell swoop – by the end of three weeks work I was ready for a break… I work for the church in the UK and went to see how the church ... more

    Advantages Advantages The wild life

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The roads

    It was eight years ago that I went to Kenya but the memories are just as fresh as they were when I was there. It was my honeymoon which did get off to a bit of a bad start (for more info on this see my op don’t let fear win) but the holiday did more than make up for it. A couple of months before I went to Kenya I had to get so jabs. One for yellow fever my arm hurt like hell for about a week, one for typhoid and your usual tetanus jab I also had to have drops for polio. It’s just a couple of drops of brown liquid that is put on a spoon and you drink it. It is the most decussating thing I have ... more

    Advantages Advantages Lots of people have been, but there is plenty more to see

    Disadvantages Disadvantages the danger aspect- Just be sensible- it minimises the risks!

    Having been brought up in Kenya, I'm pretty sure I know it inside out! They say once you have been there is always a place for it in your heart! Kenya does have everything to offer; from gorgeous beaches, to luxiouriously forested mountains, African bush land and desert. When going to the coast, most tourists head off to the simple and deffinate success of Mombasa, all very well; but not the ultimate African beach experiences. Due to being linked to the city, Mombasa's beaches are often quite dirty, for the purest sand, and bluest water, Malindi or Watamu is a safer bet. Mombasa hosts some ... more
