This is the nation where royalty walked in a princess and walked out a queen. This is the story of Queen Elizabeth the second and your holidays Kenya ought to take you to the exact location in Nyeri where she received the news that she had ascended to the throne.

Once royal sites have been taken in the next stop ought to be great Rift Valley. This valley was formed millions of years ago after several tectonic shifts and it runs from the middle east all the way into Kenya and beyond. This state is home to a picturesque section of the Rift and it has quite a lot to show for it.

For a start this section contains Lake Magadi that occupies100 kilometers square and a mining hub for soda ash. This mineral may not be too familiar to most until you ingest sweets and other forms of licorice that create that fizzing effect once it comes into contact with your saliva.

Apart from sizzling condiments the next stop for your Kenya holidays should be Lake Logipi that is one of the lesser known of the country's lakes but the advantage the water body has over the others to the north or south of it are the saline hot springs within. During the rainy season there is a temporary inland sea that forms in the form of Lake Alablab which tends to link up with Logipi to form a larger water body for bird and tourist to relish in every year.

From great lakes the final destination for this leg of the journey should be Nakuru town that not only has its own Nakuru National Park and multifarious hotels offering first-rate accommodation and cuisine to match. If all the movement does not suit your fancy there are copious beach resorts in Mombasa waiting to fulfill your every whim.

Kenya holidays for water bodies permanent or otherwise.
