A boat safari will be possible in Lake Lake Nakuru National Park. In the privet or community conservancies of the Laikipia Plateau, around the Masi Mara and other where, other possible activities include walking safaris, night game drives, community visits, and, in Laikipia, horseback riding.

Because of its equatorial location, Kenya has a wet and dry season, rather than summer and winter. The wetter months(November to May) are characterized by very warm temperatures around 86oF/30oC, with stick humid conditions down along the coast. The drier months June to October have cold nights and mornings, and fairly pleasant afternoons. For every 1,000m/1,000ft the higher you go the cooler it becomes.

The Dry season June to October is the to see wildlife. This is when the bush thins out, making animals more visible as they go to the nearest waterhole. This is also when the wildebeest migrate between July or Agust and October. The Wet season from November to May has interesting birding as migratory species arrive, fantastically green landscapes, lots to newborn animals, and cheap low-season rates
