10 Days · Bush + Beach
Maasai Mara & Diani Beach Safari
The story begins with morning tracks in the Mara and ends with the Indian Ocean at your door. Between them: the Rift Valley, a lake-country pause and four nights to settle into Diani's slower rhythm.
The shape of the trip
Wild country first. Bare feet afterwards.
Three Mara nights create the safari's anchor. Two more in Naivasha give Lake Nakuru a full day, then the coast is a deliberate change of register rather than an overnight add-on.
Itinerary
Day by day
Days 1–3
Nairobi to the Maasai Mara
Travel from Nairobi to camp, take an afternoon drive, then spend two full days exploring the reserve at a pace shaped around wildlife and light.
Days 4–5
Naivasha and Lake Nakuru
Drive north to Naivasha for two nights. The following day is reserved for Lake Nakuru National Park, with a packed lunch and a return to Naivasha in the afternoon.
Day 6
Rift Valley to Diani Beach
Return to Nairobi and connect to the coast. Flight timing and any transfer are confirmed for your dates; on arrival, the remaining daylight belongs to the beach.
Days 7–9
Diani at leisure
Three full days without a timetable. Stay close to the resort, take to the water, or arrange an optional outing through your host.
Day 10
Diani to Nairobi
Transfer to Ukunda for the connection to Nairobi and your onward journey. The final sequence is built around your international departure.
A good fit for
Travellers who want the contrast
This route suits couples, families and first-time Kenya visitors who have enough time to enjoy the bush without surrendering the beach to travel days.
Before you commit
The coast connection is date-led
Accommodation meal plans, domestic flight arrangements, baggage limits and exact transfer timings vary by property and season. Your final proposal will confirm them before booking.
