This itinerary gives you a short and sweet taste of an African safari! Spend the first three nights in Kenya's famous Masai Mara, a national park renowned across all of Africa for its abundance of wildlife all year round. Once a bucket list of animals and incredible game viewing experiences has been ticked off, head to the beach to relax on the white sand beaches of Diani, Kenya's southern coast, and dip your feet in the crystal clear ocean!

DAY
1

Fly to Nairobi

Fly internationally overnight to Nairobi arriving the following morning.

DAY
2-4

The Masai Mara

Met on arrival and transferred to the Wilson Domestic Airport in Nairobi for the flight into the Masai Mara National Reserve. Met on arrival and transferred to Karen Blixen Camp to stay for the next 3 nights on a Full Board basis including all park fees and game viewing activities on a shared vehicle basis.

Definitely the jewel in Kenya’s safari crown, the Masai Mara National Reserve and the surrounding, Greater Mara Conservation Area, are still one of the greatest regions in Africa to head for if you are wanting to see plenty of game in a short amount of time. Generally seen as best during the period when the wildebeest migration herds are viewable (from June until the end of October), although the beauty of the park is that it is still host to plenty of resident animals and predators throughout the year.

DAY
5-9

Diani Beach

Transferred back to the airstrip for the flight to Mombasa on the Southern Coast of Kenya. Met on arrival and transferred to Waterlovers to stay for 6 nights on a Half Board basis.

The coastline down here features the archetypal white sands and azure waters that you would expect from a desert island and, with their secluded location, many of the properties also offer a complete removal from the hustle and bustle of the beaches further to the north.

DAY
10

Back home!

Fly back to Nairobi to be met and transferred to the international airport in time for the overnight flight back.

Please note that the above is on a B&B basis unless otherwise shown and the cost does not include international flights.
