Join us as we recount our incredible adventures in the heart of Africa.
2: "From Nairobi's Nights to the Maasai's Heights: Kenya Unveiled"
Our Kenyan odyssey unfolded with thrilling intensity, from a night in Nairobi, deemed one of Africa's most perilous cities, to shopping escapades against advice.

Follow us as we rose before dawn for unforgettable wildlife encounters and witnessed elephants quenching their thirst in our hotel pool.
3: "Wild Encounters and Savanna Sojourns: Kenya's Best Kept Secrets"
Exploring Kenya's national parks, sailing on Lake Nakuru to witness vibrant flamingos, and riding through the savanna while convincing zebras we're one of them—these were just some of the highlights.

Follow our journey as we bid farewell to Kenya and set our sights on the paradise island of Mauritius, recharged and ready for more adventures.
Wild Encounters: More Animals than Friends
In my blog, you'll find more photos with animals than with friends. And honestly, I see them more often too, unfortunately or fortunately.
There should've been a buffalo in this picture, but it's currently in a witness protection program. Can you believe it? In Kenya, there's a team tracking animals' locations daily to protect them from hunters and poachers who export their horns and pelts to China. The rhino horn trade is particularly absurd, as Chinese believe it has healing properties.
We did manage to complete the Big Five! Lion, buffalo, leopard, rhino, and elephant. Once, hunters believed these were the hardest animals to kill, which is why they were the most prized. Nowadays, the only hunting allowed in Kenya is photo hunting. And spotting this famous five is considered the luckiest safari experience.
So, what animal in its natural habitat would you like to see most?
Literary 📚 Africa in the world's classics
I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills. The Equator runs across these highlands, a hundred miles to the North, and the farm lay at an altitude of over six thousand feet. In the day-time you felt that you had got high up, near to the sun, but the early mornings and evenings were limpid and restful, and the nights were cold.

Enjoying the Wildebeest Crossing in Masai Mara | Divine Experience and Tips
I posted a note the day before yesterday, sharing my divine experience of witnessing the 'decade's largest' wildebeest crossing in Masai Mara a few days ago. Such a scene is rare, but I have summarized some tips based on my experience and the information from the guide, which you are welcome to refer to if needed.
❗️This is just a personal experience sharing, not guaranteed to be 100% correct, and sometimes you may need a bit of luck in addition to experience.
🟤Hotel:
This time we stayed at a hotel called Entim Masai Mara, right next to the Mara River, a very niche Boutique Camp with only 15 tents. The hotel faces a crossing point, but it's relatively non-mainstream, and there has never been such a spectacular crossing scene before (there was no large-scale crossing in the days after we left), this time was a real luck.
However, this crossing point is the hotel's private territory, ordinary people cannot enter, only guests can have such an experience. I estimate that after this time, Entim will be hard to book, and you need to book a long time in advance.
If you are staying at other hotels, I strongly recommend staying in the park! Because it takes an hour and a half to drive from the entrance of Masai Mara, if you stay outside the park, you will waste 3 hours on the road every day, which is not cost-effective.
🟤Crossing Point:
In addition to the niche crossing point in our hotel, most people go to a few large main crossing points, where the probability of seeing the crossing is also higher. But whether you can see the wildebeest crossing, where to see it, and what the scale is, no one can guarantee.
🟤Season:
Normally, the wildebeest migration takes place every year in July and August, with the highest probability in mid-August. This year's migration was delayed due to drought, and it wasn't until the recent rains that they were brought over. It was still raining in Mara a few days ago, so there is still a good chance of seeing the wildebeest crossing in the next two weeks, and it's not impossible during the National Day holiday.
🟤Time:
Wildebeest usually choose to cross the river when the water is warmer, which is in the mid to late afternoon. However, we saw it at sunrise for two consecutive days, so no one can be sure about this. I would suggest leaving early, we left at five thirty on the first day and saw the crossing at six, animals are always more active in the early morning.
🟤Patience:
To see exciting scenes on a game drive in Mara, you often need to wait, sometimes for several hours or even half a day, so patience is important. If the guide suggests waiting, then it's worth waiting a bit longer, it's part of the game (provided the guide is excellent and responsible).
🟤About the River Crossing:
Wildebeest crossing ≠ River crossing. The latter must be in the Mara River, and the difficulty is higher, it needs to meet many harsh conditions, such as dust, crocodile predation, migration, rapid water flow... Recently because it often rains, the ground is wet, it is difficult to meet the condition of dust, no matter how large the scale is, it is just a wildebeest crossing, not the 'River Crossing' level.
A supreme experience in Masai Mara | Watching antelopes crossing the river while having breakfast
I dare say this is a unique experience on the whole network.
Here's the thing. Masai Mara, due to the severe drought this year, has no fresh grass, so the classic scene of antelopes crossing the river in August has not appeared, and the antelope army has not been able to migrate from Tanzania, so all the tourists who came in the peak season have not seen the great migration.
In early September, Mara finally had a few light rains, and new grass slowly grew a bit. The day we arrived, it was raining heavily, and the guide said everyone was waiting for this rain, and perhaps our Mara trip could have a surprise.
The camp we stayed in Masai Mara is very niche, with only 15 tents, occupying a prime location by the Mara River. Early the next morning at five o'clock, we were going to watch the sunrise, but the driver received news of antelopes crossing the river in front of the hotel, so we rushed back.
Then, wow, the scene from the documentary appeared, with thousands of antelopes crossing the river in groups from the river bay in front of the hotel, and many more were gathering on the opposite bank, with the buzzing and mooing sounds all around.
What's more exaggerated is that it's right in front of our tent, it's a 360-degree unobstructed view of the river crossing. And because this location is the hotel's private territory, cars from outside can't come in and don't know the location, so only the hotel guests' 3 cars watched this spectacular scene for an hour.
I thought we were lucky enough, but the next morning when we were having breakfast at the hotel, more antelopes appeared, on a larger scale than the day before. All the hotel guests went out for the game, and only the three of us were incredibly excited to have such a view.
The funniest thing is, when we were fully immersed in this miracle, we suddenly turned our heads and found that all the hotel staff were standing behind watching, even the chef came out with his phone to take pictures😂 According to our waiter, he has been working here for five years, and this is the largest scale. Our driver also said that this is the highest density and duration of river crossing he has seen since 2012, which can be called the best in ten years.
When the river crossing was almost over, a few photographers came over, their faces not looking very good, because they couldn't take good photos from their nearby positions. He looked at my unfinished Benedict Egg and couldn't help but laugh and cry, saying 'This is truly luxurious.'
Indeed, the real luxury is such unpredictable and untraceable moments of serendipity, there's no regret when it's not there, but if you're lucky enough to have it, enjoy this moment to the fullest.
In September, you can still see the move of the century - the crossing of the Mara River!
The annual migration of the Masai Mara River at the junction of Kenya and Tanzania, you know how lucky!
Kenya, which arrived on September 10th, thought that this time there was no animal migration, because the general migration of animals was concentrated in July and August, and a car friend was waiting here on the Masai Mara River. I didnt see it for a week. I didnt expect that we only went to one day and could actually see it.
I was originally planning to drive Kenya by myself, but considering that because I am watching wild animals, I dont know where there are wild animals in the unfamiliar people. It is easy to miss a lot of wonderful things, and finally I chose a chartered car. In terms of the results, this decision is too correct, because the locals will have a walkie-talkie communication. Once the animals are found, they will tell other drivers at any time, everyone will come quickly, so this is why we can see so many animals. , Africa's five hegemons, wildebeest migration, lion hunting, I saw everything I wanted to see.
So, if you come to Kenya, Tanzania, Africa to travel to see animals, it is recommended to charter a car, but if you go to North Africa, it is very suitable for self-driving, the road conditions can still be

Africa·Lake Naivasha·Boat Bird Watching
Lake Naivasha is located about 90 kilometers northwest of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, and is situated within the Great Rift Valley.
The lake was formed by fault subsidence, with a length of 20 kilometers from north to south, a width of 13 kilometers from east to west, a maximum depth of 20 meters, a lake surface elevation of 1900 meters, and a lake surface area of about 260 square kilometers. It is the highest lake in the rift valley. There is a winding island in the middle of the lake called "Crescent Island", which is a private wildlife sanctuary.
Lake Naivasha is one of the most beautiful freshwater lakes in Kenya and the only freshwater lake in Kenya. The lake is rich in perch and African carp. There are large areas of papyrus swamps on the lake shore, and a "Country Club" is set up on the lake shore.
Navasha Lake | An animal paradise created for a documentary
Navasha Lake is one of the most beautiful freshwater lakes in Kenya and the only freshwater lake in Kenya. There are the largest number of hippos and birds here, but the most worthwhile thing in Navasha is the beautiful island.
"Into Africa" filmed Navasha Lake, in order to make this film, the film crew created an ecological environment on an island in the heart of the lake, carrying a lot of animals on the island, such as the giraffe zebra antelope horn Horse and so on. After the filming, the animals stayed behind. There were no natural enemies. They thrived on the island. Because there were no carnivores, the whole island was a bird and animal paradise. This is the only trip that can be used to walk close to animals.
Take a boat across Navasha Lake to reach the island on that shore.
After wandering around to the other side of the island, this is the island of "Into Africa", which is called a no-man's land. It is full of animals and a peaceful, like a paradise in dreams.
The body is in hell, eyes enter heaven, and the soul falls into the hometown.
I would like to have a thousand lights, and shine through the night, even if the moths are burning, there is no fear.
When I saw such a peaceful and hard-to-find landscape, this is my definition of travel.
The island is not big. The giraffes, antelopes, wildebeests and zebras we see most are very quiet. Maybe because there are no natural enemies, they dont fight or quarrel. They are clean. Grazing, triumphant.
The boatman who took us on the island wore shepherd's clothes, thin and thin body, and it was very lonely to walk on this grassland. This beautiful and lonely animal world, a peaceful and quiet, let people put down all the irritations in the heart, I felt that life is so calm for the first time.
Lake Naivasha, Kenya, is a beautiful lake in the Great Rift Valley. There are many elegant resorts and a paradise for birds. It is a huge bird that flies like Dapeng. Waving strong wings, driving the bulky body to fly upwards, or sliding low-altitude, double-flying, perched on a tall acacia tree, because the weight is too large, so the branches are swaying.
