A Journey from the Wild Savannahs to Nairobi’s Urban Energy

Kenya isn’t just another safari destination, it's a thrilling blend of wild landscapes, vibrant city life, and warm, welcoming people. Whether you’re chasing sunsets in the Maasai Mara, dancing the night away in Nairobi, or savoring a plate of Nyama Choma (Kenyan barbecue) under the stars, Kenya offers something unforgettable for every traveler.

Let’s explore what makes this East African gem your next must-visit destination and where to stay for the ultimate comfort and convenience.

Start Your Journey in Nairobi, The Beating Heart of Kenya


Think Kenya is all about safaris? Think again. Nairobi, the bustling capital, is where modern Africa comes alive. The city hums with energy skyscrapers blend with lush parks, game parks within the city, international cuisine meets local flavor, and the nightlife? Absolutely electric.


Start your adventure at the Museum of Kenya, a fun, mind-bending spot that’s perfect for photos and families. Then, as the sun sets, explore Nairobi’s nightlife where live music, DJs, and an easygoing crowd keep the energy flowing well past midnight.


When it’s time to unwind, then Swiss-Belinn Nairobi in Kileleshwa offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from the city center. Modern, stylish, and welcoming, it’s perfect whether you’re here for business, leisure, or even gearing up for a safari.

Into the Wild Kenya’s Iconic Safari Adventures


Of course, no trip to Kenya is complete without stepping into the wild. The Maasai Mara National Reserve is the crown jewel of African safaris. Picture lions lounging in the morning sun or witnessing the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests' thunder across the plains a spectacle that captures the raw beauty of Africa.


What’s great about staying in Nairobi is how easily you can plan a weekend safari without sacrificing comfort. Spend your days spotting elephants and evenings enjoying a cocktail at the Swiss-Belinn Nairobi’s rooftop bar. It's truly the best of both worlds.


For those who love to stay right in the action, the Nairobi Safari Club by Swiss-Belhotel, located in the heart of the city, is a timeless favorite. It blends old-world charm with modern luxury, offering easy access to both the wild and urban experiences Kenya is known for right at the centre of the Nairobi CBD.

Beyond the Safari Beaches, Peaks & Hidden Treasures


Kenya’s magic doesn’t stop at wildlife. Down south, Diani Beach welcomes visitors with soft white sands and turquoise waters, ideal for diving, kitesurfing, or pure relaxation. Further north, Lamu Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site invites you to wander through its narrow streets, ancient stone houses, and tranquil dhow harbors.


For thrill-seekers, Mount Kenya, Africa’s second-highest peak, offers breathtaking alpine trails, crystal-clear lakes, and views that will leave you speechless.
