If you’re coming all the way to Kenya, why choose between a safari and the beach? This 7-day Kenya safari and beach holiday lets you enjoy both.
You’ll begin with a few days in the bush, exploring the Maasai Mara. After the early mornings, game drives and wildlife sightings, you’ll head to Diani Beach for some well-deserved time by the Indian Ocean.
It’s a nice combination if you want to see Kenya’s wildlife but also have time to slow down, enjoy the sunshine and experience the coast.
Day 1: Nairobi to Maasai Mara
We’ll pick you up from your Nairobi hotel, airport or another agreed location and start the journey to the Maasai Mara.
The drive takes you through the Great Rift Valley, so there’s a chance to stop along the way, take some photos and enjoy the scenery.
After reaching the Mara, you’ll check into your lodge or camp and have lunch. Later in the afternoon, we’ll head out for your first game drive.
You might see elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo and antelopes, and there’s always the excitement of looking for lions and other big cats.
After the game drive, return to camp for dinner and a relaxing evening.

Day 2: A Full Day in the Maasai Mara

After breakfast, we’ll head out for a full-day game drive. Your guide will choose the areas to explore based on wildlife movements and the conditions on the ground.
You could come across elephants crossing the plains, giraffes feeding, zebras moving in groups or lions resting after a morning hunt. Who knows, you might as well watch the hunting.
We’ll stop for a picnic lunch during the day before continuing the drive. By evening, you’ll return to your lodge or camp for dinner and some rest.
