Κenya<br />

For a country <strong>of</strong> its size, Kenya sure packs a lot in: mountains <strong>and</strong><br />

deserts, colourful tribal culture, beaches <strong>and</strong> coral reefs, <strong>and</strong><br />

some <strong>of</strong> Africa’s best wildlife attractions. In fact, to say Kenya is<br />

Africa in microcosm would not be stretching <strong>the</strong> point. There are<br />

a million different reasons to come here, <strong>and</strong> picking just one is<br />

nigh impossible. Stunning l<strong>and</strong>scapes set <strong>the</strong> scene, from<br />

Kakamega’s rain<strong>for</strong>ests to Indian Ocean beaches by way <strong>of</strong> Mt Kenya National Park; <strong>the</strong><br />

rolling grassl<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Masai Mara to searing deserts on <strong>the</strong> shores <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Jade Sea;<br />

with The Rift Valley, home to Hell's Gate National Park, cleaving a massive gash through<br />

it all.<br />

The people, too, represent a wide cross-section <strong>of</strong> everything that is contemporary<br />

Africa, <strong>and</strong> everyday life brings toge<strong>the</strong>r traditional tribes <strong>and</strong> urban families; ancient<br />

customs <strong>and</strong> modern sensibilities. Swapping <strong>the</strong> latest political gossip with <strong>the</strong><br />

switched-on locals is just one more small pleasure that comes with <strong>the</strong> culture.<br />

Nairobi<br />

Kenya’s capital city has risen in a<br />

single century from a brackish<br />

uninhabited swampl<strong>and</strong> to a<br />

thriving modern capital. When<br />

railway construction workers<br />

reached this area in 1899, <strong>the</strong>y set<br />

up a basic camp <strong>and</strong> supply depot,<br />

simply called ‘Mile 327’. The local Maasai called this highl<strong>and</strong> swamp Ewaso Nai’beri<br />

– <strong>the</strong> place <strong>of</strong> cold water.<br />

The camp became a rustic village, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>n a shanty town, which by 1907 was <strong>the</strong><br />

capital <strong>of</strong> all <strong>of</strong> British East Africa. It was soon an important centre <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> colony <strong>and</strong> a<br />

mecca <strong>for</strong> adventurers, hunters <strong>and</strong> travellers from all over <strong>the</strong> world.<br />

Modern Nairobi is still <strong>the</strong> safari capital <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Africa, but <strong>the</strong> modern world has quickly<br />

caught up with <strong>the</strong> city. A frontier town no more, Nairobi has become one <strong>of</strong> Africa’s<br />

largest, <strong>and</strong> most interesting cities. Nairobi is a city that never seems to sleep.<br />

The entire town has a boundless energy, <strong>and</strong> is thriving place where all <strong>of</strong> human life<br />

can be found. This is a place <strong>of</strong> great contrasts where race, tribe <strong>and</strong> origin all become<br />

facets <strong>of</strong> a unique Nairobi character.<br />

From <strong>the</strong> wildlife to <strong>the</strong> nightlife, Nairobi is a city unlike any o<strong>the</strong>r. With a fantastic<br />

music scene, excellent international restaurants <strong>and</strong> an endless <strong>and</strong> colourful array <strong>of</strong><br />

shops <strong>and</strong> markets, <strong>the</strong>re is plenty on <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> visitor.<br />
