SKYDIVING DIANI

  Skydiving in Kenya is a unique   experience . There are few dropzones in the world that can claim such beauty–and no other skydiving operation where you can land on the beach every time, sip from a fresh coconut on your way back from landing, shoo away the monkeys who want your treats and experience the friendly and vibrant Kenyan culture.

Wind is blasting and your heart will be pounding with excitement as you ha

An Element Often Ignored Experts emphasize that hotel managers rarely pay attention to this element. Traditional denominations like ‘standard’, ‘double’, ’single’, ‘interior’, ‘with a view’ or ‘no view’, determine the competitiveness of these accommodations.
