Q: How do I travel from Nairobi to the safari parks like Maasai Mara?

You can take a domestic flight from Wilson Airport for speed, or book a 4x4 safari vehicle for a scenic 5-6 hour drive.

Guided tours are recommended; they include expert drivers, park fees, and 4x4 vehicles, which are essential for safety and spotting wildlife.

Q: What is the difference between a 'game drive' and a 'walking safari'?

Game drives are in vehicles to see big cats; walking safaris are guided treks on foot to observe smaller flora, fauna, and tracks.
