Lake Nakuru National Park is highly worth seeing because of its large population of lions, leopards, and black and white rhinos. It also has stunning vistas and ecosystems due to its placement on the Rift Valley escarpment. The park is also a very successful rhino sanctuary in East Africa. The park's main feature is its soda lake, which is famous for holding the world's most spectacular bird show. There is a large number of flamingos here, which decorate the lake's shoreline with vivid pink hues. In addition to the water birds, the park is home to a wide variety of species, including critically endangered black rhinos, Rothschild giraffes, and big cats. All of them travel freely throughout the park's ecosystem.

Kenya is one of Africa's most diverse vacation destinations. The biggest lure is going on safari in world-class parks like the Masai Mara National Reserve, but this tropical East African country has many other appealing features.

No. Malawian passport holders who want to visit Kenya for tourist, business, or transit can enter the nation without a visa. They merely need to apply for a Kenya ETA (also known as a visa waiver). The Kenyan ETA is an electronic travel authorization that permits Malawians to travel to Kenya without a regular visa. It is completely available online, and Malawian candidates may make their requests from the comfort of their own homes. There is no need to arrange a visit to an embassy or consular office. The Kenyan government established the ETA in 2024 to ease international short-term travel to the country.

No. A Kenya eTA is the government's license to travel to the Republic of Kenya, and a valid eTA must be presented throughout the check-in and boarding procedure. Your carrier may still refuse to board you if you do not show other needed papers such as your passport and/or boarding permit.

Kenya's traditional food is as diverse as its tribes, history, and scenery. Each tribal area has its own specialties, but here are some of the most popular Kenyan culinary dishes to try on your trip.

Your Kenya eTA is valid for a single entry into Kenya. Here are the types of Kenya eTA for international visitors:

While it's not strictly necessary to print your eTA for Kenya, it's strongly advised as a backup. Your eTA is electronically linked to the passport you used during the application process. When checking in for your trip to Kenya, you'll need to present this passport. The airline staff will scan your passport to confirm the validity of your eTA. Without a valid eTA, you won't be permitted to board your flight. So, having a printed copy can provide peace of mind in case of any electronic glitches or if the airline prefers physical documentation.

Applicants are alerted by email every time their Kenya ETA status changes. First, when a traveler applies for a Kenya ETA, they will receive a confirmation email. This email confirms that your request has been received and will be considered shortly. Travelers are not required to take any more action at this time. The application has been successfully submitted and is pending review.
