Rift Valley
The Great Rift Valley is another prized Kenyan attraction, boasting beautiful lakes and escarpments, which provide havens for plentiful wildlife.
The region is a birdwatcher’s paradise, as it attracts several species to its sparkling lake shores – most notably huge flocks of flamingos that happily wade near hippos and other game species.
