Apart from the experiences I enjoyed on my Kenya tour, from watching wildlife to sunning in the beaches - another great source of joy from my Kenya tour was the friends I made during the tour - more than a dozen of them to be precise.
The travel Kenya resources I had read before my Kenya tour showed that Kenyans are a friendly lot - and there seems to be a consensus on this from nearly everyone who ever tours Kenya.
Indeed one of the travel Kenya resources I had made use of extensively in preparing for my Kenya tour was a blog run by a fellow who tours Kenya regularly - and who seemed to be impressed by the warmth of Kenyans to which I attest.
One thing I noticed about Kenyans is their confidence - and dignity - right up to the lowliest hawker, especially at the seaport city of Mombasa.
A lady who guided me through my tour of fort Jesus - which is one of the most memorable sites I visited in my Kenya tour impressed me with her immensely good grasp of history.
In my Kenya tour, I also had the opportunity to meet a guy on the beaches who said that he worked for $1.5 a day - and who actually looked happier than some people I know of who make $100 a day.
It is not just Kenyan friends that I made on my Kenya tour though - I also had the opportunity to make friends with a bunch of Americans I met on the beaches - military men or something - and some Italians I shared an hotel with, and who told me that they have a home in some part of Kenya - and invited me to stay with them on my next Kenya tour.
