In Kenya, marquee attractions require advance booking or permits, sometimes weeks or months ahead — plan before you land, not after.
Check that attraction's own official booking page directly as soon as you've fixed your travel dates — the most famous sites can sell out weeks or months ahead in peak season, regardless of the destination's general pattern.

If a specific landmark matters to your trip, check that attraction's own official booking page directly rather than relying on general norms.
