16 days Kenya: game drives & the beach

Where Wilderness Meets Waves – The Perfect Kenyan Escape

Driving, walking, sailing, and diving—this 16-day safari and beach adventure captures the true spirit of Kenya in one unforgettable journey.

Your trip begins with a close encounter with rhinos and chimpanzees in the renowned Ol Pejeta Conservancy. From there, the real safari begins—journey deep into Samburu National Reserve, where you’ll meet not only the classic African wildlife but also the rare and unique Samburu Special Five.

Continue to the Solio Game Reserve for another face-to-face with the mighty rhinos before heading to Lake Nakuru National Park, where flocks of flamingos gather and tree-climbing lions might just surprise you during a game drive.

In the world-famous Masai Mara, the Big Five await—along with the spectacular chance to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration if your timing is right. Sail across the calm waters of Lake Naivasha, passing hippos and flamingos, and walk among giraffes and zebras on Crescent Island for an intimate wildlife experience.

In Amboseli National Park, elephants roam freely at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, offering unforgettable photo opportunities. And finally, you’ll trade the dusty trails of the savannah for the soft sands and turquoise waters of Diani Beach. Snorkel, dive, relax, or simply breathe in the ocean breeze as your journey comes to a dreamy end.

Whether it’s your first time in Africa or your long-awaited return, this adventure combines the best of Kenya’s wild beauty and coastal charm—truly a trip you’ll never forget.
