Types of travel in Kenya tour.
Kenya tour- Camel
Several different camel Kenya tour are offered in the drier Northern parts of Kenya. They range from regularly scheduled Kenya North tours to trips customized to meet the size and time schedule of your group. Typically only four to 12 clients would be on a camel tour at any one time, usually for about five nights. Camel tours are suspended during the rainy season. Prices tend to vary by group size and duration of the tour.
In most cases, camels are used primarily as pack animals to move camp from one site to the next. You can also ride camels if you like, or you can walk. Camels are rather bad tempered and not especially comfortable to ride-many clients spend more time on foot than on camels. Typically, you walk through dramatic, unspoiled scenery with your guides in this Kenya tour. You may encounter wild animals or occasionally come across Samburu herdsmen or small tribal settlements.
You don’t have to be particularly fit for these Camel Kenya tours. The pace and amount of walking will be geared to the group. You usually reach the new campsite around midday, rest after lunch and take an optional late afternoon game walk. Each night a tented camp is set up in a pre-selected spot. Dinner is prepared fro you, a camp fire is lit, and water is warmed for a bucket shower. The night noises of the bush surround you. Above are brilliantly star-spattered skies.
Kenya Tour- Donkey
Although donkeys carry all the supplies and gear, these are essentially walking Kenya tours for the fit, the adventurous and lovers of wild and remote places of beauty. The Kenya tour walking trails wind and climb through magnificent landscapes in the northern region of Kenya-around Losiolo (near Mararal). Clients are likely to see wild animals and many species of birds. These tours typically include atleast four nights camping under the stars in comfortable but unpretentious style-there are camp beds, tour showers, and meals cooked over the campfire.
Horse back in Kenya tour
Experienced horse back riders can enjoy the unique experience of exploring some spectacular wild Savannah and bush on even terms with the wild animals. You begin your Horse Kenya tour ride from a base camp or ranch house to follow game trails cross-country on horseback. There is no sign of modern roads or even telephones poles, just space and freedom for the four-to–six hour ride to the saddle tour camp, usually set near a shady waterhole.
The rides begin in the early morning, which is also the best time for viewing wildlife. There are stops for drinks and lunch on your horse back Kenya tour. You arrive at the day’s camp in time for tea and hot showers, with everything all set up and waiting for you. The sykes or grooms attend to the horses as well as provide additional protection at night. You can relax or take a walk around camp before sundown and later enjoy your meal around the traditional campfire.
Saddle tours usually use specially designed English trekking saddles (there are no Western Saddles) and Anglo –Arab Somali Ponies. The horse back Kenya tour camp moves daily by truck along bush roads that the main group avoids. Some saddle tours combine horseback and four wheel drive photographic segments, some are “no frills” with riders taking car of some of their own camp needs, some include a “rest” at a house on the beach. There are several; different Kenya tour itineraries to choose from and some trips are offered on a guaranteed departure basis with the price changing depending on the numbers of riders who actually go on the trip.
As a rider you must have your own accident and medical insurance before arriving in Kenya. Only riders confident at all paces are accepted. You must have suitable riding attire including warm clothing and a waterproof jacket, coat, or poncho in case of rain.
For those horsemen who wish to ride as a relaxing form of exercise or to add an extra dimension to their stay at a Kenyan ranch, lodge, or hotel, there are a number of places offering guests opportunity. There are some where the trail ponies are even suitable for beginners.
