Kenya visa for Egyptian
Kenya visa process for Egyptians is very easy, but tricky at the same time.
You can get a Kenya visa on arrival at the airport. This is not recommended because why wait in lines in the airport while you can get it from your laptop in 50min
All you need is to visit the Official Website and submit an application, pay your fees online $50 and in 24 hours you will receive the visa by email.
You should beware of fake websites that act as the official one and charge you more. This happened to my Freind and she paid $100 for the visa. Yes, she got a valid visa at the end, but why pay double the price?!
Travel to Kenya from Egypt Vaccination
Travel to Kenya vaccination is the second important thing after the visa. You will not be allowed in Kenya without a yellow fever vaccination certificate.
You can get your vaccination from any of this location
Yellow fever vaccination is a one-time vaccination you get from the health office in Downtown Cairo or your nearest office.
When you get your vaccination you will receive a yellow certificate this is very important to keep in your passport.
There are other vaccinations that you need to take including Cholera and Malaria and those vaccinations require multiple shots on different dates. It’s recommended once you decided to travel to call Vaceera and know what shots required and where to get them and on what intervals.
Personal statement: the Malaria pills are not available in the health office, and they ask you to buy it from any pharmacy. I didn’t find it in any pharmacy and had to travel without taking them.. 😂.. But after I called a Freind who works in Africa he told me that it’s treatable and make sure that you drink alot of soda water to fight it.
Kenya flights booking
Kenya flights are not cheap, nor expensive. You can look around on Skyscanner and search for the best rate and flight you wish.
Kenya hotels booking
This is tricky when in Kenya you don’t want to stay in Nairobi. It’s Not the best place for tourists.
Check all the good hotels of Nairobi from Booking.Com
But if you couldn’t find a direct flight or a good connection to Mombasa or Masai, just stay one night in Nairobi.
We stayed for less than 24 hours in The Concord hotel and Suites because our pickup for Masai was in the early morning.
We stayed at The Concord Hotel and Suites which was very nice and safe.
When you land in Nairobi you will notice that safety is a real issue, don’t go out after 8 alone and always use hotel taxi or Uber.
After getting flights and Nairobi hotel sorted out, now comes the real adventure.
You have 2 options
Either go to Masai Mara then Mombasa
Or you go only Mombasa
Click the route you like from above and decide.
We went Masai Mara first from Nairobi then all the way back to Mombasa.
This makes sense because you finish the adventures of Masai then relax on the Awesome beaches of Mombasa
