  1. Make early travel plans

This had to be the first. You cannot wring all the sweet juices from a vacation without prior planning. By knowing the exact location, how much it is going to cost you, the experiences you are looking forward to, the number of days not forgetting putting your documents in order early enough, will save you the last minute hustle. Create a schedule for the number of days that you will be on vacation. A good Safari experience in Kenya should be at least 3 days. Easter is a few weeks away now; your plan should be underway already. If the plan is not underway, don’t fret, you can always…

  1. Contact a reliable Travel Agent.

Come Travel Kenya Limited has a number of Easter packages that will blow your mind lined up for you already. The packages come in varieties: Mountain Easter, Beach Easter and Wildness Easter.

Reaching out to a reliable Travel Agent will help you get a professional travel itinerary that will be pocket friendly and will make your safari fluid. Your accommodation, transport, hotel transfers, meals, and Safari experiences will all be arranged for you.

  1. Chose a thrilling destination

Kenya is a thrilling destination this Easter. Kenya also offers a variety of experiences in different places of your choice. You can visit the city, the countryside, make drives in the Masai Mara, climb Mount Kenya or go to the Beach. A destination that makes you squeeze all the juices of fun from your Easter break would be the best for you. Find a place that will help you relax and enjoy at the same time.

  1. Travel light

travel light

Unless you really must travel heavy, then travelling light will make you reap the maximum out of this short break, especially if you chose to spend the break in Kenya. At the moment Kenya is warm and sunny with little rains here and there. Unless you are coming to hike on Mount Kenya, you only need a few light clothes, T-shirts, shorts, hats, sunglasses and sunscreen. You can have a small bag to carry your travel documents and medication if you have any and other few personal items. If you are planning a group Safari and camping is on the itinerary, a torch, mosquito repellant and a lighter will save you at some point. Most tourist destinations in Kenya are well equipped to make your stay there fun and comfortable. Don’t move with your whole bedroom. However, you can always…

 

  1. Bring good company along if you can

Easter is usually a moment of bonding and family unity. Family and friends on a trip is an awesome experience. Come Travel Kenya Limited has a specialty in organizing group tours and we will give you the best offers and packages that you won’t find anywhere else in this world.

What do you say? Would you like to visit the second largest slum in Africa and spend Easter touching lives? Perhaps you want to plant a tree in the great Tsavo or adopt an elephant.

  1. Pick a number of days that will give you time to rest

date

A minimum of three days will be the best. You may have more or less depending on your availability. Nevertheless, Come Travel Kenya Limited assures you that you will have an exquisite Safari all the same. Plan your trip in such a way that when you get back home, you will have a day or two to breath before getting back into routine.

Easter is a beautiful break, like a tall chilled glass of tamarind juice on an extremely hot day. It comes at that time of the year when everyone just needs to catch a breather from what they are doing. The first quarter of the year is normally a marathon.

What are your thoughts on taking your breather on the scenic slopes of the famous Mount Kenya or better still, taking a hike up the Mountain? A camping night with colleagues on the shores of a glacier lake is an idea pulled out of a novel. A night with a loved one in the wild, taking advantage of the cold can fan the flames of love.

It is globally known that the jewel in the crown of Central Kenya is Mount Kenya. Mt. Kenya is Africa’s Second Highest Mountain and one of the best destinations in Kenya. Picking Mount Kenya as your Easter Destination in 2024 is a worthwhile move.

Come Travel Kenya Limited has put together Easter Packages to Mount Kenya. In addition to the attractive tour activities that Come Travel Kenya Limited has lined up for you, here are mind blowing reasons why your Easter holidays should be spent touring Mount Kenya:

Over 10 Bucket List Worth Glacier Lakes to See

mt kenya

You have probably heard of the over 30acre glacier lakes Alice, Lake Michaelson, Lake Ellis and Lake Rutundu.  All these are scenic blue sights that will leave you appreciating the wonder of creation.  Princess Alice, the Duchess of Gloucesster was the first to sight Lake Alice and it is named after her. It is a beautiful spot for trout fishing. The exotic vegetation makes climbing a rich experience.

Now, you can imagine there are more lakes as beautiful as Alice to be discovered. This Easter, come and discover Lake Hohnel, Carr Lakes, The Enchanted Lake, Teleki Tarn, Hidden Tarn and Hall Tarns. This is an activity that can be done for days filled with chills and fun.

What do you say to packing those boots, gloves, hoodies and sweaters and booking a flight to Kenya?

Climbing Mount Kenya has Rekindled Inspiration to many souls

Mt Kenya

Yours will not be an exception. The whole process of going up the mountain is exhilarating. Those who have tried and succeeded have given tales of deep inspiration and revelations. If you are lost in the chaos of life, work, parenting and the whirl-winds of this forsaken world, here is a chance to tap into the strength of your soul. Challenge your body to its limit with a hike in the frozen crispy air of Mount Kenya during this Easter and have your inspiration in life rejuvenated.

The Wildlife on Mount Kenya is beyond what you have seen before.

mt kenya

Truth be told, Mount Kenya Wildlife is gorgeous. The Elephants of Mount Kenya are my favorite. Those beasts are glamorous. Mount Kenya’s striking Flora and Fauna makes the mountain stand out. Climbing Mount Kenya is not just a snowy experience, but also a feel of earth-before-mankind-interference, kind of experience. This can never be described in written. You have to experience it to understand.

Luxury is at the pick on Mount Kenya

Mt Kenya

Planning your Easter Holiday with Come Travel Kenya Limited offers you a variety of mind-blowing services to pick from. It also gives you pocket friendly rates for various packages. All these, despite the prices are classy and extremely luxurious.

Kenyans are known for being very religious, with the main religions being Christianity and Islam. However, despite the religious nature of the country, Kenya also allows for secularism. The constitution allows for freedom of worship, so individuals are not forced to belong to any particular religion or practice any specific form of worship.

missionaries

Easter was first introduced to Kenya by missionaries in the 18th century, when they arrived on the Kenyan coast. Many Kenyans took to the doctrines and practices brought by the missionaries, including the celebration of Easter. Today, Easter processions and the Way of the Cross are popular, attracting crowds for both religious observation and out of curiosity. Originally, these celebrations were practiced mainly by those who followed Roman Catholic doctrines, but Protestant churches have since adopted them and adapted them to their own traditions.

Over time, various ways of celebrating Easter have emerged, including mock crucifixions, particularly in traditional African churches in Kenya. While human sacrifice is illegal in Kenya, religious fanatics have attempted to crucify a “Jesus” from time to time, leading to media uproar and condemnation. Nonetheless, witnessing Easter celebrations from the perspective of indigenous churches can be a unique experience.

Good Friday

After Good Friday, the emphasis shifts to fun, and many Kenyans take the opportunity to spend time with family and friends, go on drinking sprees, or hold family barbecues. Visitors can join in the fun on the streets or opt for a more traditional family visit. Many prestigious venues offer special fun activities during this time. Visitors might even consider taking a road trip to experience how Easter is celebrated in various towns and villages throughout Kenya.

If you’re looking for a fun way to spend the Easter holidays in Kenya, Come Travel Kenya has lined up a variety of activities to help you enjoy the season, regardless of your religious beliefs. While Easter is a Christian holiday that attracts a large portion of the population in Kenya, it is also a short holiday filled with activities that aren’t necessarily religious. If you plan to visit, it’s a good idea to start making your bookings now.

Despite the many fun activities that take place during the Easter holidays, there are also plenty of religious observances. Many Christians spend this time commemorating the death and resurrection of Christ, with Catholics and Anglicans being the most prominent during this period. The Easter season begins with Ash Wednesday and continues through Palm Sunday, Adoration Thursday, Good Friday, and culminates in the celebrations of Easter Sunday.

Throughout history, the Easter season has been a time of rest and merrymaking. Children are out of school and adults have time off work, creating a relaxed atmosphere after the solemnity of Good Friday. If you’re interested in experiencing Easter the Kenyan way, be sure to contact Come Travel Kenya for details on Easter packages and choose the one that best suits your preferences. Don’t forget to share the experience with friends who might want to come along!

Easter in Kenya is characterized by religious activities. The largest population engages in religious activities that involve going to church from Thursday, on the eve of Good Friday, all the way to Easter Monday.

However, not everyone goes to church during this time. Kenya is largely secular, and there is a significant population that will be out there having fun. You can always choose what to do. Here are some things that you might want to be a part of to experience Easter the Kenyan way.

Attending Mass or Easter Services

mass

If you are a religious person or curious about what happens in churches during this time, you can walk to any church and join in the celebration of mass or Easter services. Main towns have big cathedrals for Catholics and Anglicans, and there are a number of Pentecostal churches that your tour agent could recommend. Many Kenyans choose this time to worship and be in touch with their spiritual side.

Charity and Goodwill

charity work

Easter is a period of doing good and being there for people in need. It presents an opportunity to visit drought-ravaged areas, orphanages, hospitals, and prisons. You can arrange with your travel agent to make your Easter a period of goodwill and spread the much-needed kindness. Doing it with your family or a group of friends makes it more meaningful and fun. Come Travel Kenya can always arrange for you to visit in this way.

Easter Road Trips

 

road trip

If burning rubber is your thrill, this is the time. The roads are usually busy at this time, and the more the motorists, the merrier the road trips. You might want to try out new roads and see what is going on around the villages and main towns. If you are a guest in Nairobi, a trip to Naivasha or Mount Kenya could be a great thing to do.

Visiting Mombasa

visit mombasa

It’s not just Mombasa; the whole Kenyan coast is normally lined with activities that attract large populations during Easter. Many families travel to the coast to have the beach experience. However, this is a time to avoid public beaches. You might want to check out what I have written on Places to Visit During Easter to make an informed decision about visiting the coast at this time.

Sampling Hotels, Restaurants, and Bars

If you love life, music, drinks, and food, this is the right time to hop in restaurants. The hospitality industry gives discounts and extra servings in the spirit of Easter. Many places are made fancier for this period. Bars also have the Easter hype. Bands blare, concerts are always up for grabs, and celebrities perform during this time. If you love Sauti Sol, Come Travel Kenya would gladly book you into a concert this Easter.

Easter Egg Hunting

There are places that organize egg hunting, mainly in big towns like Nairobi, Nakuru, and Mombasa. This activity will be enjoyed mostly by children if you are visiting with your family.

The City Tour

Nairobi

This would be a perfect time for a Nairobi City Tour. Many people go to their rural homes for Easter holidays, which reduces traffic in the city significantly. You can enjoy walking around the city, grabbing ice cream in less populated areas, and enjoying the town setting. It’s also a perfect time for city photography if you enjoy this.

Easter Safaris

This is also a good time to get a very affordable package for Easter Safari. Come Travel Kenya has lined up safaris for you to pick what you prefer most. Consider a three-day Easter Safari and have a blast exploring Kenya’s rich wildlife.

Easter is usually an awesome time to travel. It’s easy and affordable. You can always pick from the list of many activities to explore or even join a family and blend
