Discover hidden Kenya with Simon Reeve

For those in the know, there’s so much more to Kenya than you might expect. 

Beyond the Big Five, you can encounter the Special Five in Samburu, the Little Five on a walking safari and have fascinating and unexpected wildlife encounters year round. There are over 40 different tribes to discover, which means over 40 different languages, traditional dishes and tribal dances, many of which can be encountered in Kenya’s vibrant capital, Nairobi. And did you know Kenya had Africa’s best beach – frequented by nesting sea turtles, gentle whale sharks but precious few tourists? Watch below as TV traveller Simon Reeve talks to two of our contacts on the ground to discover hidden Kenya for himself.
