Over the last few decades safari holidays have become more and more popular for people looking for a holiday with a difference. Historically, safari holidays used to include hunting the animals but over time this is being phased out and rather than going to kill the wildlife people are enjoying watching them in their natural environment.  Going on a safari holiday is often like nothing you have every experienced. A trip to the best Zoo in the world cannot give you nearly the same sights and experiences that a true safari can. Seeing animals in the wild, observing their natural behaviour and seeing the effect that us humans are having on them can be a real eye opener.  Kenya was the first commercial place to offer a range of safari holidays and this is due to the perfect conditions in the area. There is a wide range of wildlife to be viewed and the terrain is often ideal for safari ventures.

There are a number of ways in which you can do a safari holiday from a self drive safari to an elephant backed safari. Each different type has its own unique experience and you may want to combine a number of these in to one safari trip.
