Watching the festive celebration of Kenya can become an experience to remember. Witness the varied cultural heritage of Kenya and get the true taste of Africa.

July - Kenyan Safari Rally

July is the time for car buffs of all types in Kenya. Mid - July sees the Kenyan Safari Rally. This is a fast paced race through the wilderness of Kenya where drivers do not only have to negotiate rough terrain but also assortments of wildlife. The 2-day rally finishes in Nairobi

to a chaotic climax.On a slower note, the Ferodo Concours D'Elegance takes place on the Nairobi Race Course. This is a celebration of the wide range of pre 1940's vehicles in Kenya and is a relaxed day out.
