- Is Kenya safe to travel to?
In our opinion yes it is. At the lodges and hotels, the staff and management would ensure your safety is at the top priority and would advise you on where to travel to and not.
In towns as well, if you are not sure of what area is safe and not, talk to the hotel management or your travel operator.
In the end, we all need to be sensible. Kenya is as safe as any other country; no one knows what will happen when.
