Getting There
Tourists can visit these safari locations once in Kenya and can show up via air, land or ocean, however, flights are the most favoured mode of transport. Kenya is a huge nation and while you can go via vehicle on a safari circuit, getting between the various regions is better on a booked flight.Kenya's main airport is Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), located 15km/9mi southeast of Nairobi. Kenya's second international Airport is Moi International Airport (MBA), located 9km/6mi west of Mombasa, but aside from flights to Zanzibar, this is primarily used for domestic and charter flights.From Nairobi or Mombasa, one can fly or drive between reserves, or opt to do a bit of both. Most domestic flights out of Nairobi depart from Wilson Airport (WIL), 6km/4mi south of Nairobi.

I honestly don’t regret being recommended to Jeffways Tours and Travel by a close friend. I just made one call, shared what I wanted for my holiday trip and they handled the rest. They planned my entire itinerary so well, everything flowed perfectly from day one to the last. The highlight? The Maasai Mara game drive. We were lucky enough to spot 4 out of the Big 5 and let me tell you… that moment felt unreal. Pure magic. If you’re thinking of travelling soon, I’d highly recommend Jeffways Tours and Travel. They really come through.

We travelled with this tour company and it was one of the best safaris I have had in a while. The tour guide Jeff knows how to treat clients well, he pays attention to details and he is also a good photographer. We are hoping to come back sooner.
