If you travel anywhere in the world, let it first be to Kenya. With its snow-capped tropical peaks and endless golden savannas, its fiery deserts, towering cascades, gleaming Lake Victoria and jade inland sea, its soaring escarpments and deep Rift Valley, its rain forests, white beaches, and azure coral coast, Kenya is an adventure in paradise. The TRAVELER'S KENYA COMPANION leads you through bustling, modern Nairobi to hidden bush camps, from Maasai manyattas to tea and coffee plantations, from crocodile rivers to wind-swept mountain trails, from balmy coastal resorts to the world's last vast concentrations of plains wildlife - the zebra and wildebeest herds, gazelles, impalas, elands, elephants, giraffes, and the lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas who live on them. And the TRAVELER'S KENYA COMPANION introduces you to Kenya's welcoming, proud peoples, Samburu warriors and Kikuyu farmers, Turkana fishermen and Asian merchants, European outfitters and Arab coastal sailors - the melting pot of this vibrant, emerging, unforgettable nation.
