Has anyone been to Kenya recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

I was there in February and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $50/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.

This matches my experience. Kenya is one of my favorites.
