try to go on a safari if you aren't already. Nothing like seeing lions lying in the sun.

Always use a safari net even if in the hotel. Keep away from washed salads and ice in drinks. Make sure you take your malaria tablets. Have your required innoculations.

I went 3 years ago and enjoyed it immensley besides the terrible mosquito sting in my face due to my hotel not giving me a net. Insist on having one, they do have them.

Take a safari to Tsavo East and Tsavo West if you stay in Mombasso area or if you are in Nairobi go to Masai Moira.

If have an evening to spare in Nairobi look out for nice restaurant on the outskirts called "CARNIVORE", thats if you are in on grilled meats!!!!.

When I/we lived in Kenya for a while we went pretty well to all the game reserves, etc. and the one that we all liked best was Samburu, which just happens to be pretty much the most difficult to get to. Even if you are not going far from Nairobi, you can see more or less all types of game in Nairobi Park literally on the edge of the town (one edge of it, the fenced one, runs along part of the airport road) with the exception of elephants. The Sheldrake Trust have (or at least had) an elephant orphanage on the edge of Nairobi Park, well worth visiting (properly, i.e. when they take the calves out for a walk).
