Signature Kenya Diani
The journey, one day at a time
South to Kilimanjaro's foot
Fly from Nairobi to Amboseli beneath Kilimanjaro, then take a first drive as the big-tusked herds move down to the swamps.
A day among the herds
Morning and evening drives for Amboseli's elephants, with the mountain as a backdrop whenever the cloud lifts.
North to the Ewaso Nyiro
Hop by light aircraft into Samburu's arid north and drive the river line for the special species found only up here.
The northern specials
Full days tracking Samburu's dry-country specials along the doum-palmed river, with strong odds on leopard.
Into the Mara
Hop by light aircraft into the Maasai Mara and head out on a first game drive as the light softens — plains game, elephant and the first cats on the way to camp.
Full day on the plains
Morning and afternoon drives with a Maasai guide, routed by where the predators are moving, with the long midday hours to rest at camp.
Deeper into the reserve
A full day further afield — river lines, kopjes and open grassland — with a picnic lunch out in the bush.
Down to the coast
Fly down to the coast into Diani on the Indian Ocean — the rest of the day is for the beach, the reef and doing very little.
A day on the sand
Snorkel the marine park, swim, or simply move between sea and shade — the unwound close to a safari.
Homeward from the coast
Transfer to Moi International in Mombasa for your flight home — or onward to the next chapter.
The season changes what you see.
The migration window
The wildebeest are in the Mara and the river crossings are on — the headline months, and the busiest. Book well ahead.
Resident game, green plains
The Big Five never leave. Fewer vehicles, lower rates, newborns in the grass and clean light for photography.
