10 days Kenya: safari in the south & to the coast

Visit the country’s beautiful southern parks for a myriad of experiences and get some well-deserved relaxation at the white sandy beaches of Kenya’s coast.

The first two days you’ll already encounter an abundance of wildlife in the Masai Mara National Reserve, famous for its Big Five and the Great Wildebeest Migration. After a unique boat safari in between hippos and flamingos at Lake Naivasha, you’ll enjoy a two-day rendezvous with herds of elephants in Amboseli National Park at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. And as the cherry on the cake, you’ll end your trip at the pristine beaches and crystal clear ocean of Diani Beach. Here, you can simply relax, enjoy this indescribable beauty and reminisce about this extraordinary adventure you got to experience.

Day 1

Arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi

As you step out of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a member of our Africa Safari Trips team or a hotel driver greets you with a big smile: 'Karibu Kenya – welcome to Kenya!' He brings you straight to your hotel to relax and, along the way, you get your first impressions of vibrant Nairobi. The next day, your guide takes you on an exclusive, private safari that allows you to travel at your own pace. Let the adventure begin!

Day 2 - 3

En route to the famous Masai Mara National Reserve

Day 4

Boat ride on Lake Naivasha and walking safari on Crescent Island

Have you ever wanted to pass floating hippos by boat? Seek no longer: during a boat safari on Lake Naivasha this is exactly what will happen. You will pass between huge groups of hippos while seeing eagles and cormorants flying above you, and admiring giraffes on the shore. The safari on board a small motorized boat takes about 60 minutes and ends on the beautiful Crescent Island, where you will continue with a stunning walking safari between zebras, giraffes and wildebeests.

Accommodations:

Day 5 - 6

Sundowner at Tulia Amboseli

After driving towards Amboseli National Park today, you end your day in style with a classic safari sundowner. Upon arrival in the lodge and after freshening up, a guide accompanies you to a special sundowner spot. The short walk over the savannah leads to a table and chairs, glasses and drinks, snacks and, of course, a view to die for. With some luck, you see the Amboseli animals passing while the sun slowly sets in the most beautiful glow over the long savannah grasses...
