by David Jenkins

Kenya holidays offer you the very best of everything, with the excitement of the world famous wildlife reserves, along with a coastline blessed with glorious beaches lapped by the Indian Ocean. From the bustling white sands of Bamburi Beach to the breathtaking peace and quiet of Kilifi, Kenya is a truly incredible holiday destination.

One thing about Kenya holidays is that they allow you to set your own pace; whether you want to relax on the beautiful beaches or go on a Kenya safari holiday, you will be sure to come back with your most memorable holiday snaps ever.

Kenya is the ideal winter sun or summer sun destination with over three hundred miles of coastline, a huge number of water sports and activities, resorts that come alive at night and a great year round climate.

Kenya is a destination made famous by its game reserves and even the shortest safari is certain not to dissapoint with opportunities to view elephant, zebra, giraffe, lions and much more.

Many people choose to combine both their Kenya beach and Kenya safari holidays to create one unforgettable experience. This is of course a very popular and convenient way to enjoy the excitement of a twin centre holiday without having to endure the inevitable long haul flight between destinations.

With safari opportunities ranging from 2 night “taster” safaris right up to a 7 night Masai Mara safari, there is an experience to suit everyone’s budget. Much of the game viewing opportunities will depend on the time of year you travel, so it is worth discussing the animal’s migration patterns with your travel agent before booking your Kenya holidays.

Many people consider their Kenya holidays as a “once in a lifetime experience” but that doesn’t mean the cost needs to break the bank. Whilst you can easily pay upwards of 5,000 per person on Kenya beach and safari holidays it is also possible to combine a short safari and beach stay for as little as 600-700 per person.

Before buying your Kenya holidays on line you should take a look at the following companies; www.kuoni.co.uk, www.free2.co.uk and www.somak.com

Free2 offers a wide variety of both Kenya beach holidays and Kenya safari holidays to choose from. As a specialist for luxury holidays to some of the most exotic locations in the world, you are sure to find an itinerary to suit at Free2 luxury holidays and honeymoons.

PostHeaderIcon Holidays to Cuba

by Jose Mauricio Maurette

More than sun and sand, more than its other natural attractions, Cuba is its people and their history. It is the magic of its countryside and of its cities with their hidden heritage.

Cuba has around 3534 miles(5700 kilometres) of coastline, with lovely scenery featuring beautiful beaches and over 400 cays with fascinating Flora and Fauna – a great drawing card for visitors who want to enjoy the wild life.

Cuba counts more than 300 natural beaches which are unique for the different hues of their clear, calm water; the beauty of its pristine cays; and their fascinating seabed.

The seabed of Cuba’s insular shelf, which is 27,027 square miles (70,000 square kilometres) in size, contains areas which Jacques-Yves Cousteau (participant of the 1992 World Underwater Photography Championship) described as the most spectacular and varied on earth.

Cuba has a network of Scuba-diving centres with all the equipment you need for exploring its seabed and underwater caves in areas of singular natural beauty and speleological importance.

Cuba counts 236 protected areas, which cover 22 percent-around 10,328 square miles of the country’s territory. They include the Valley of Viales in Pinar del Rio (a world heritage site by UNESCO) and several other areas that have been awarded the category of World Biosphere Preserves.

Some of Cuba’s cities are like living museums of tremendous enchantment; UNESCO has declared Trinidad, Cienfuegos and Havana to be part of the World Cultural Heritage.

These are just some reasons why Cuba can be a perfect destination for your next holidays. There is a universe of options that you can go for. If you fancy swimming with dolphins, relaxing on a beach or simple soak up the atmosphere of its vibrant cities you have that for granted.
