Kenya Travel Essentials: What You Need to Know

We couldn't believe it ourselves until the very end, but we made it here! Today, I'll share everything you need to know before traveling to Africa: ❓ Can You Fly to Kenya Now? Yes, you can. Just provide a negative test, vaccination certificate (Russian is accepted), and fill out two forms required at the border. ❓ How to Get There? We flew Qatar Airways for 25,000 rubles per person with a layover in Qatar. Surprisingly, it was cheaper than going to Armenia 😅 ❓ Is Solo Travel Possible? Yes, but I recommend choosing a hotel that organizes all activities for you. For example, @thecliffke welcomed us at the airport, took us to the camp by Lake Nakuru, organized a jeep safari in the national park, a boat safari on the lake, transferred us to another camp with the Maasai tribe, who also run a ranch and hot air balloons, and finally, returned us to the airport. Such a trip is easier, more reliable, and better organized than going on your own! ❓ Safety Concerns Many fear mosquitoes and insects. Kenya solved the issue with malaria mosquitoes a long time ago by introducing fish that eat these mosquitoes from America. Not a single mosquito bit me in Kenya in 2 weeks, even regular ones. But I still got the yellow fever vaccine, just in case. ❓ Do You Need a Visa? Yes, for $51, you can get an online visa in less than a day. ❓ What to Do in Kenya Horseback riding, jeep safaris, hot air balloons, and interaction with local tribes. I think it's the perfect country to start exploring the continent. Plus, thousands of animals! Would you like to visit Africa?
