KENYA
Kenya is regarded by many as the ‘Jewel of East Africa', and has some of the continent's finest beaches, most magnificent wildlife and scenery, and an incredibly sophisticated tourism infrastructure. It is a startlingly beautiful land, from the coral reefs and white sand beaches of the coast to the summit of Mount Kenya, crowned with clouds and be jeweled by strange giant alpine plants.
Between these two extremes is the acacia-studded rolling savannah, which is home to game parks such as Amboseli, the Masai Mara, Samburu and Tsavo; the lush, agricultural highlands with their sleek green coat of coffee and tea plantations; and the most spectacular stretch of the Great Rift Valley, the giant scar across the face of Africa.

Kenya is a place for safaris, and one-tenth of all land in Kenya is designated as National Parks and Reserves. Just about every African plains animal is present. Over 50 Parks and Reserves cover all habitats from desert to mountain forest, including six marine parks in the Indian Ocean.
CULTURAL BACKGROUND
Kenya has a fascinatingly diverse population with around 40 different tribes, all with their own languages and cultures. Major tribes include the Kikuyu, the Luhyia and the Luo, but the most famous are the tall, proud, beautiful red-clad Masai, who still lead a traditional semi-nomadic lifestyle of cattle-herding along the southern border.

A mixture of African and Arabic, the unique Swahili culture can be found along the balmy coast, where for centuries it became prosperous on the profits of commerce from the trade winds that carried ocean-going dhows (sailing boats) across the Indian Ocean to Arabia and Persia.
Nairobi City 
The name "Nairobi" comes from the Maasai phrase Enkare Nyirobi, which translates to "The Place of Cool Waters". Nairobi is the capital and largest city of Kenya, known as the "Green City in the Sun" .Founded in 1899 as a simple rail depot on the railway linking Mombasa to Uganda, the town quickly grew to become the capital of British East Africa in 1907 and eventually the capital of a free Kenyan Republic in 1963.
KENYA COAST
The Kenya Coast is one of Kenya’s main attractions. It offers a combination of historical sites, superb beaches and coral reefs – once described by Ernest Hemingway as ‘completely unmatched in the world’. The Kenyan Coast can be divided into four main regions: the Town and Port of Mombasa; the South Coast stretching from Mombasa to the Tanzania border; the North Coast covering the beaches from Mombasa to Kilifi and finally Watamu, Malindi, and the Lamu archipelago.
Mombasa
Mombasa town is Kenya’s second largest town and main port. Its history stretches back nearly 2,000 years, including periods of colonization by Portuguese, Arabs, and the British. The town of Mombasa is on a small island, and is a cosmopolitan blend of African, Arabic, Asian, and European cultures. The old town of Mombasa is fascinating and worth exploring for its maze of narrow streets.
TANZANIA
Tanzania is made up of mainland Tanganyika and the Islands of Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia which occupy over 2600 sq kms on the Indian Ocean. The mainland has a coastline of over 800 kms of beaches, most of them palm-fringed. The topography ranges from 5895 m at the peak of Africa’s highest mountain to the depth within the Great Rift Valley of Lake Tanganyika, 772 m deep, the worlds second deepest lake.
The history of Tanzania goes back over one and half million years ago. At Ol Duvai Gorge the remains of the earliest known mankind were discovered here in 1959 by Dr Louis Leakey. Likewise, relics of long extinct birds and animals have also been uncovered. Excavations have also revealed Roman coins and Chinese pottery. Between the 11th and 16th century, there was also a considerable development along the coast, during which time the Kiswahili language evolved, being a derivative of African, Persian and Arab languages.
Tanganyika attained independence on 9th December 1961 and a year later the country became a Republic within the Commonwealth.
