Kenya
Our small group will travel in comfortable 4WDs to explore the most exciting and remote birding destinations in Kenya! Starting on the coast with the endemic Black Boubou and Sokoke Scops Owl, we'll head inland towards the Critically Endangered inhabitants of the Taita Hills. Around Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Range, we will search out Hinde’s Babbler and Sharpe’s Longclaw, while in the diverse Kakamega Forest, species like Grey-chested Babbler and Blue-headed Bee-eater will feature. Multiple stunning near-endemics, including Vulturine Guineafowl, Rosy-patched Bushshrike, and Fire-fronted Bishop round out this comprehensive trip. Plus, our safari will inevitably encounter some exceptional large mammal diversity!
