Kenya's Profile | Hotels in Mombasa
MORE THAN YOU BARGAINED FOR!!!
EASY TO GET THERE
Situated astride the Equator, Kenya is centrally located globally and easy to access. With direct flights and easy connections served by major international carriers, including the national airline, Kenya Airways, Kenya is one of the most accessible destinations in the world. Kenya can also be entered by road from Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Sudan and Somalia. Entry by sea is also possible through the Indian Ocean port of Mombasa.
WONDERFUL CLIMATE
The coast is lined with pristine palm fringed beaches along the calm inviting waters of the Indian Ocean. Days are filled with sunshine and nights are balmy and warm with gentle sea breezes.
HOSPITABLE PEOPLE
The hospitality of the people of Kenya is known the world over and you will be met with a beaming smile and a welcoming Karibu Kenya – Hakuna Matata!
WORLD CLASS ACCOMMODATION AND FOOD
World class beach hotels lining the seemingly endless miles of Kenya's pristine coastline, north and south of Mombasa, with an estimated 45,000 bed capacity, offer a wide range of resorts that allow visitors to relax and enjoy this natural paradise with the best standard of accommodation, service and international cuisines.
AFFORDABLE
The airfare to Kenya from any part of the world is reasonably cheap due to its being centrally located globally. Hotel accommodation, food and drinks are also reasonably cheap compared to other parts of the world. For example, a half litre of the tasty Kenyan Tusker lager beer costs an equivalent of two US dollars in a five star beach resort and one US dollar in other hotels.
FUN AND SCENIC HASHING TERRAIN
Varieties of trails are available and may include jungle, palm trees, hills, flat surfaces, smooth sandy, water crossings etc. Possible sighting of the rare colobus monkeys, baboons, a variety of birds and other wildlife and domestic animals.
PLENTY MORE TO OFFER
A Visit to the world famous game reserves is recommended before or after the hash where you shall have a chance to see what nature has favoured us with. Come and witness the Great Wildebeest Migration – a spectacle to behold!!!
WHAT'S MORE...
You'll run in the land of the world's finest long distance runners. An example of Kenya's domination is the recent Boston Marathon. Led by Rodgers Rop, one Kenyan after another flashed past an amazed crowd and in the final tally, Kenya held 1st to 7th places in the Mens field, and both 1st (Margaret Okayo- making her Boston debut) and 2nd (Catherine Ndereba) for Women. Kenya's Paul Tergat is also the current New York Marathon title holder. In fact, it is estimated that from 800 through 10,000 meters, this country of only 30 million (0.5 percent of the Earth's population) wins about half of all the Olympic and World Championship medals for men's distance running. Discover the secret to this sporting success high in the hills of the North Rift Valley.
