Kenya_4

Kenya - A country filled with a diversification of landscapes, wildlife, plant life and fascinating cultures. It stirs the wild in each of us and yet it brings us home - home to the cradle of mankind that is Africa. There are 68 different languages spoken in Kenya, but the official language is Swahili. It has the second highest mountain in Africa, which is Mount Kenya after Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro. The Maasai Mara in Kenya experiences the greatest wildlife spectacle on the planet, the Great Migration. During the migration nearly two million wildebeest and zebras cross the plains of the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara. To experience the sights and sounds of this epic herd thundering across the plains is like nothing else on this planet. It is then that you know that you are truly in Africa. Africa reminds us of what it is to be a part of a greater world - a world where being wild is to be free at home.
