Welcome to Kenya! Upon landing at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you will be met by our representative and transferred to your Nairobi hotel. Take the rest of the day to unwind after your journey or explore optional city highlights such as the Karen Blixen Museum, the Giraffe Centre, or local markets (time permitting). In the evening, settle into your room for a comfortable overnight stay, anticipating the wildlife encounters ahead.
After an early breakfast, depart the bustling city and travel south toward Amboseli National Park, a drive of approximately 4–5 hours through the scenic Kenyan countryside. Arrive at your lodge or tented camp in time for lunch and a brief rest. In the late afternoon, embark on your first Amboseli game drive, where you can spot large herds of elephants, zebras, and possibly lions or cheetahs. On a clear day, Mount Kilimanjaro’s majestic silhouette forms the perfect backdrop to your safari photos. Return to your lodge for a hearty dinner and your first night in the African wilderness.
Rise early for a sunrise game drive, taking advantage of the soft morning light and cooler temperatures. Watch as elephants forage in the marshlands, hippos wade in the water, and predators hunt before the heat of midday. Return to your lodge for breakfast, followed by leisure time to enjoy the facilities or simply relax while taking in views of Amboseli’s landscapes. After lunch, venture out again in search of more wildlife, driving across dusty plains and through patches of acacia woodland. In the evening, savor dinner at your lodge and recount the day’s sightings under a star-filled sky.
Awake to one last Amboseli sunrise and, if time allows, take a short morning game drive to capture any final safari moments. After breakfast, check out and head back toward Nairobi or a nearby airport/airstrip, depending on your travel arrangements. Catch a domestic flight (or opt for an overland transfer) to Kenya’s southern coast, arriving at Diani Beach by late afternoon. Settle into your beach resort, swap your safari boots for flip-flops, and breathe in the salty breeze of the Indian Ocean. Spend the evening at leisure, dining on fresh seafood and relaxing to the gentle sounds of the waves.
This day is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Stroll along the powdery white sand, take a refreshing dip in the turquoise ocean, or lounge by the pool under swaying palm trees. Water sports enthusiasts can arrange optional activities like snorkeling, scuba diving, or kite surfing. Alternatively, explore the local culture with a visit to nearby communities or the historic town of Mombasa (about a 1.5-hour drive away). Return to your resort for a restful evening, lulled by the laid-back coastal atmosphere.
Revel in another day of sun and sea in Diani. You might choose to indulge in a spa treatment, head out on a dolphin-watching excursion, or simply sip fresh coconut water while reading a book under a beach umbrella. For something different, consider a day trip to Wasini Island and Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park (additional cost) for dolphin spotting and a chance to see vibrant coral reefs. In the evening, dine on Swahili-inspired cuisine at your resort or a local beachfront restaurant.
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast overlooking the Indian Ocean on your final morning in paradise. Depending on your onward travel arrangements, you may have time for a last swim or souvenir shopping. Check out of your resort and transfer to Ukunda Airstrip, Mombasa’s Moi International Airport, or to another chosen destination for your international flight home. This concludes your 7-day Kenyan adventure, seamlessly blending the wildlife wonders of Amboseli with the coastal charm of Diani.
