Great introduction to K3nya with exzellent guide - We enjoyed our first trip in Kenya. Bomas of Kenya is a great museum to get to know about the different tribes, the history and culture of Kenya. Our excellent guide Victor explained everything very well and also pointed out some interesting sights while in the car. The traditional dance show at Bomas is also very interesting. Victor was very pleasant company and fulfilled even a special request we had.
