There are over 30 wildlife parks in Kenya. To enjoy a quintessential Africa feel on your safari  it is imperative to visit 3-4 parks and see a greater number and diversity of species - Amboseli, Samburu, Tsavo, the Rift Valley lakes rich in bird life in addition to the mammals (Naivasha, Elmenteita, Bogoria, Baringo or even Turkana),  Laikipia plataeu, Masai Mara, Central Highlands, Meru, and others. Few countries in the world allow you to drive over the Equator and see the diversity of wildlife north and south of it !
