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
- New venues worth checking out

I was there a while back and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.

Trying to decide between this and Colombia.

Cheers

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

Different experience for me. Prices were lower when I went.

Been there 5 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The friendly atmosphere is what keeps me coming back.

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $150/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

My tip: avoid weekends.
