Airline and stops

Best time to go
Nairobi and Kenya work well most of the year. If you want less rain and active wildlife, the dry season is your friend: June to October is prime time. Prices tend to be higher then because demand peaks. November is a solid choice: the green season begins, prices drop, and visibility is still good.
What to do when you arrive
You land at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), just outside Nairobi. The capital is your launch pad for safaris in the Masai Mara, Amboseli or Tsavo. If you stay in the city, the National Museum of Kenya and Karen Blixen Museum are worth your time. Accommodation and activity prices are far cheaper than in Europe.
