Overview
A 14-day journey from Nairobi through Kenya's top wildlife parks to the white sands of Diani Beach, Mombasa.
This ultimate Kenya experience combines the best of wildlife and beach. Begin in Nairobi and journey through Ol Pejeta Conservancy — home to the last two northern white rhinos on Earth — then venture into the rugged, semi-arid beauty of Samburu, where leopards drape across riverine trees and Grevy's zebra graze on golden plains. Continue to Solio Ranch, one of Africa's most successful private rhino sanctuaries, before pausing at scenic Lake Naivasha for a boat safari among hippos and fish eagles. The journey reaches its crescendo in the Masai Mara, where lion prides, cheetah coalitions, and vast herds create the spectacle that made Kenya legendary. After eight days of extraordinary game drives, fly south to the pristine white sands of Diani Beach for four restorative days of sun, snorkelling, and Indian Ocean tranquillity.
