The word Safari, in Swahili (a native African language) denotes a long journey. Wherever you remember this word, the immediate thought that comes to your mind is to plan the best African safari vacation in an exotic tropical location, isn’t it? Kenya, located on the east coast of Africa, offers the best expedition experiences. This country is made up of 59 national parks and approximately 70 luxurious safari lodges that make your trip comfortable, amazing and full of fun.
