Discover the magic of the Maasai Mara as well as Kenya's tropical coast on this 9-day touring adventure.
On this 9-day touring holiday, you'll discover two equally enchanting sides to Kenya. After a night in the country's bustling capital, Nairobi, you'll head to the sprawling savanna of the Maasai Mara, home to many of Africa's most coveted species including the 'Big Five' (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino) and more. Twice-daily game drives through the reserve's evocative landscapes will enable you to encounter some of these fascinating species, an experience that leaves a lasting impression. You'll then head to Kenya's tropical coast, where pristine white sands and swaying palm trees edge the glistening blue waters of the Indian Ocean. Combining safari adventure with beachside bliss, this indelible itinerary offers the best of both worlds and allows you to unlock the magic of Kenya.Arrive in Nairobi
You will be greeted by a local representative at the airport and transferred to your hotel in Nairobi in a comfortable private vehicle.
Kenya’s bustling capital city, Nairobi is well worth taking the time to explore, with fascinating museums and serene parks along with a variety of shops, markets, restaurants and nightlife.
Accommodation: Eka Hotel Nairobi (or alternative hotel of equal standard).
Transfer to Maasai Mara
After breakfast, you will be transferred to the airport in Nairobi for your scheduled flight to the fabled Maasai Mara National Reserve, one of the world’s premium wildlife reserves.
Sprawling for some 1,510 square kilometres, the Maasai Mara consists of vast savanna grasslands, rolling hills, shady acacia woodlands and distant escarpments. Throughout this pristine East African wilderness roams one of the densest populations of wildlife on the planet; the Maasai Mara is known for its big cats, with lions, leopards and cheetahs prowling its vast area. You’re also likely to encounter other iconic African species including elephant, giraffe, buffalo, gazelle, hippo, wildebeest and zebra, along with more than 500 species of birdlife.
After checking into your luxurious bush camp, you’ll embark on an enthralling afternoon game drive through the reserve to spot its plethora of species. As evening falls, you’ll be driven to a scenic spot in the reserve to enjoy a refreshing sundowner as the smouldering sun sets over the evocative landscape.
Accommodation: Mara Bush Camp (or alternative hotel of equal standard).
INCLUDES : Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Game Drives in the Maasai Mara
Over the next two days, you’ll enjoy both morning and afternoon game drives through the Maasai Mara, bringing you up close to the reserve’s incredible diversity of wildlife.
In between game drives, you can take some time to relax back at camp and enjoy its great range of facilities while soaking up the enchanting ambience of the African bush.
If visiting between July and October, you will be able to observe one of nature’s greatest spectacles: the Great Migration. During this incredible natural event, millions-strong herds of wildebeest, zebra and other herbivores thunder across the savanna plains in search of greener pastures, with the Maasai Mara’s fearsome predators in hot pursuit.
Accommodation: Mara Bush Camp (or alternative hotel of equal standard).
INCLUDES : Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Transfer to Diani Beach
Rise early to head out on your final African safari experience in the Maasai Mara before transferring back to the airstrip for your flight to Diani Beach on Kenya’s tropical coast.
With its pristine white sands and breeze-tousled palm trees, Diani Beach edges the glistening turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean and boasts a laidback atmosphere that will inspire total disconnection from the outside world.
Accommodation: Swahili Beach Resort (or alternative hotel of equal standard).
INCLUDES : Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
At Leisure
The next three days are yours to spend at leisure in Diani Beach, basking in the glorious tropical sunshine, swimming in the crystal-clear waters or exploring the area’s lush palm forests, casual bars and restaurants and coral-built mosques.
On day seven, you’ll embark on an excursion to Wasini Island, which lies some three kilometres off the Kenyan coast and offers pristine white sands and coral-rich waters filled with marine life, making it a great spot to enjoy snorkelling.
Accommodation: Swahili Beach Resort (or alternative hotel of equal standard).
INCLUDES : Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Departure
