We were on a major trip so had all sorts of luggage! You could generally get what you needed in the shops of the larger towns in Kenya. Photo of some roadside scenery on the Nairobi to Nakuru drive.

Take Sun cream and also Insect repellant for safaris. Do not forget to take also warm clothes if you go to Nairobi since the weather is like in Europe at times.

Camping Bring a strong telelens (200mm minimum, 300mm is better) and a camera that is sand and water proof.
