When I visited Kenya in dec 04 I went to many tourist destinations. I really enjoyed being there, the people were kind and friendly and the currency was just great!! I went to Nakuru which is I think the 4th biggest city in Kenya. The National park was massive and you could not compare it to going to a zoo. I saw many different wild animals such as lions and small cubs, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and many more. I took many priceless pictures and the scenery was breathtaking. This was my first time to see these animals in their natural habitat and it was one of those moments that you will never forget.

You have to have your own vehicles to travel through the park although it has to be a good car for this type of land as it’s a very ruff ride. My family and I had hired a mini-bus and it’s not very expensive because of the currency. As a tourist you have to pay a certain amount of money at the entrance and then you can be in the park as long as you like.

The flies were a pain in the back side and you just have to be able to tolerate them, as well as mosquitoes. The bites are painful and may leave scars for a couple of months mine are just wearing away now.

in Nakuru there are many shops where you can purchase ornaments and goods at very good prices. most people speak good english not fluent though, speking slowly helps them to understand your needs even better.

Overall if you’re wishing to visit Kenya then I advise you to go to Nakuru, its awesome I guarantee you will enjoy it. Any questions please ask. Thanks
