Kenya

Most travellers board a flight to Kenya for one thing only: a safari. Book flights to Kenya for city breaks in bustling Nairobi where ultramodern skyscrapers juxtapose fading colonial architecture. Prehistoric artefacts are housed at the National Museum and giraffes are at home in Nairobi National Park. Travel to Kenya's Amboseli National Park in the south east for close-up elephant encounters and vistas of 5895m-high Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak. Kenya airline tickets take travellers to Mombasa's white sandy beaches, lapped by the Indian Ocean, and its Portuguese-style old town. Edge south to snorkel beside turtles in Kisite Marine Park or west to alkaline-rich Lake Nakuru to spot pink flamingos. Overlooking the Great Rift Valley, the Aberdare National Park is home to rhino, lions and the elusive bongo antelope.

A flight to Kenya promises new culinary experiences. Savour the national speciality nyama choma (roasted goat) or coconut-flavoured fish curries on the coast. Sip vodka-based dawa cocktails as Afro-reggae shakes the bars in Nairobi and Mombasa. KLM and partners have frequent flights to Kenya. Book airline tickets to experience top events - from the Rhino Charge 4WD challenge in July to vibrant parades and dancing at Mombasa Carnival in November.
