1. Know When You Want To Travel

In Kenya, travel seasons are highly subject to timing, time is a factor in travel all around the world you don’t want to travel to Asia when its winter but you prolly want to catch summer in Africa when it’s just about time. Best safari experiences are entirely dependent on natural occurring factors. This means your concept to travel to Kenya should just be in due to season and having preferential dates will have a huge difference on your itinerary- You don’t want to be in Masai Mara when bazillion of the gnus is busy mowing green grass in the Serengeti. 

Having the concept of the number of days you will spend in Kenya, and the time of the year is a very imperative info you should consider while coming up with your itinerary. Not only will this affect what you see or experience, but it also has a huge impact on how much you plan to spend on the whole arrangement. If your safari objective is to experience a seasonal event, i.e. the great wildebeest migration, it’s most likely that the best places for the experience will have been fully booked in advance. So, it’s advisable to know the exact date of travel for the same. 

Planning for travel comes first in handy, the planning is comprised of without limiting budget, dates of travel, days on travel and destination of travel. The plan is where the journey begins. With the plan and destination of travel in mind comes the goal you want to achieve while on travel. This objective could be maybe witnessing the Big Five at the Masai Mara, Witnessing the Special Five at the Samburu National Reserve. The objective comes from the experience and sightings at the heart of your dream safari! This is the greatest determinant of your ideal destination.  

Here are some questions you should ask yourself or your travel agent 

  • Which destination is the best to experience what interests you most? 
  • Where is the best place to sight the animal or any other physical feature you most want to see? 

When you have the primary destination and dates in mind, you can explore which attractions and experiences combine well with your objective. Reasons we curate tour packages and itineraries. Part of our service is to arrange bespoke luxury holidays to amazing destinations which are completely tailored to your requirements and to your budget.

Kenyan safari is inexpensive holiday.

“It’s our advice to our clients to always have a budget band that one feels comfortable working within and sharing that with us at the earliest opportunity to avoid any inconveniences as this will expedite the deliberation and the best means to arrive at the ideal safari arrangement (Itinerary) sooner. To some this can be overwhelming as they can be cautious of letting their safari custodian know what they are willing to invest in their travel but for JABARI serving with integrity has been at the core of our Ethos and Culture.

The vibe is a connotation to one’s preferences while travelling, as this differs from one traveler to the other.
