Kenya covers an area from the coast on the Indian Ocean the Low plains rise to central highlands. The highlands are bisected by Great Rift Valley; fertile plateau in west. The Kenyan Highlands comprise one of the most successful agricultural production regions in Africa. The highlands are the site of the highest point in Kenya: Mount Kenya, which reaches 5,199 m and is also the site of glaciers. Climate varies from tropical along the coast to arid in interior.

Kenya has no unique culture that identifies it. With such diverse regional peoples such as the Swahili along the coast, several pastoralist communities mainly in the North and the different communities in Central and Western regions, having a mutually acceptable cultural identification is difficult. The Maasai culture owes its widespread identification to the tourist industry which has exploited them for purely commercial purposes.

Kenya is a country with some of the world's best parks (which may be referred to as National Parks or Game Reserves) where you can see some of the finest African flora and fauna. They are famous for lions, giraffe, elephant and huge herds of Zebra, Wildebeest or buffalo.The annual migration is a awesome sight & best experienced via a balloon safari.

Kenya also is a great destination for beach holidays and has some of the worlds beautiful beaches, located along the coastal regions and the city Mombasa.
