We started taking people to the Camel Derby in 2013, travel with the people who know the journey. Review from our trip advisor clients Maralal Camel Derby fun! : Reviewed September 10, 2013: Traveled with Cruzeiro Safaris to the
Maralal Camel Derby on 30 August - 1September.The event was amazing and I would recommend it to everyone. There was an amazing mix of local culture with Camel racing. Be warned you need gloves and good shoes if you are going to ride the camel (it hurts!) but great fun.Cruzeiro Safaris were excellent, they arranged everything and although the journey was very long (approx 10 hour drive from Nairobi) it was worth it. Accommodation was basic in tents (but what we had expected and paid for) and the food was good. I also had to cancel a few people from our group at late notice and they were very understanding.I would recommend others to use them if planning a trip in Kenya.Visited August 2013

Discover Kenya: A Land of Wildlife, Culture, and Adventure
Kenya is a top global travel destination, drawing millions of visitors each year with its stunning landscapes, world-class safari experiences, breathtaking beaches, and rich cultural heritage. Nestled in East Africa along the Indian Ocean, Kenya offers an incredible mix of wildlife, history, and adventure. Whether you're exploring its vast savannahs, the Great Rift Valley, or the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya, every moment promises a unique and unforgettable experience.
Why Visit Kenya?
Spectacular Wildlife Safaris – Home to the famous Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, and leopard), Kenya is a paradise for nature lovers. The Great Migration, one of the world’s most dramatic wildlife spectacles, sees over 1.5 million wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles cross the Masai Mara from July to October.
Diverse Landscapes – From the golden savannahs of the Maasai Mara to the lush highlands of Aberdare and the pristine white beaches of Diani, Kenya’s geography is as varied as it is breathtaking.
Rich Cultural Heritage – Kenya is home to over 40 ethnic groups, each with unique traditions, music, and customs. Visitors can immerse themselves in authentic Maasai, Samburu, and Swahili cultural experiences.
Adventure & Activities – Whether it’s climbing Mount Kenya, hot air ballooning over the Mara, diving in Malindi Marine Park, or enjoying the vibrant city life of Nairobi and Mombasa, there’s something for everyone.
Entry Requirements: Visa & Travel Authorization
All international visitors (including children and infants) must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before arriving in Kenya. The ETA replaces the former eVisa system.
Exemptions: Citizens of the East African Community (EAC) member states do not require an ETA.
Health & Vaccinations
Before traveling, consult your healthcare provider for recommended vaccinations.
Yellow Fever: A Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is mandatory if arriving from a country with a risk of Yellow Fever transmission.
Other Recommended Vaccines: Hepatitis A & B, Typhoid, and routine vaccines like measles and tetanus.
Malaria Prevention: Kenya is a malaria-prone region; carry anti-malarial medication and use insect repellent.
Best Time to Visit Kenya
Kenya is an all-year-round destination, but the best travel period depends on your activities.
Dry Season (Best for Safaris & Wildlife Viewing):January – March & July – October
Rainy Season (Best for Lush Landscapes & Fewer Crowds):April – June & November – December

Plastic Bag Ban in Kenya
Since 2017, Kenya has enforced a strict ban on plastic carrier bags to protect the environment. Visitors should not bring plastic bags into the country, including duty-free bags, as they may be confiscated upon arrival.
Safety & Security for Travelers
Kenya is generally safe for tourists, especially within the main safari destinations. However, basic safety precautions should be followed:
✔ Avoid walking alone in unfamiliar areas at night ✔ Do not wear flashy jewelry or carry large amounts of cash ✔ Keep valuables in hotel safes and be mindful of your belongings in crowded areas ✔ Use registered taxis or trusted transport services
