How many game drives are included?

The listing specifies 9 nights total but does not detail the exact number of daily drives. Confirm with the operator—typical Mara safaris include morning and/or afternoon drives on most days.

Will I definitely see lions and leopards?

Masai Mara is known for reliable big cat sightings, but wildlife spotting is never guaranteed. Your guides will maximize chances through strategic routing and radio communication with other drivers.

How long do I spend at the beach?

The itinerary allocates approximately one week (7 nights) on Diani Beach after the safari portion, leaving roughly 2 nights for Mara/Nakuru combined.

Is the domestic flight included in the EUR 3075 price?

The itinerary mentions a flight transfer to the coast; confirm whether this is included in the base price or an additional cost.

What wildlife can I see beyond big cats?

Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru host diverse ecosystems with elephants, zebras, wildebeest, rhinos, giraffes, buffalo, and hundreds of bird species depending on season.

Do I need a visa for Kenya?

Visa requirements depend on your nationality. Most visitors require a visa on arrival or e-visa; check Kenya's immigration website for your specific country.

About this activity

Combine nine days of wildlife encounters across Kenya's premier game reserves with a coastal beach retreat. This itinerary pairs intensive Masai Mara game drives—renowned for reliable lion and leopard sightings—with a Lake Nakuru rhino-viewing stop, then transitions to a week of relaxation on Mombasa's Diani Beach.

Experience game drives at Masai Mara, the drama of beautiful wilderness and exciting wildlife at all times of the year. It is of course especially known for its big cats, lion and leopard sightings are generally very good here. However other wildlife is also prolific, so the Mara really is one of Africa's gems of wildlife viewing. Then travel Lake Nakuru to see Rhinos. After your time on safari, we fly you across the country to the coast for your week of rest and relaxation on the Mombasa Diani Beach for your holiday.

our guide Carla sorted everything for us and a leopard up a tree near the river was the highlight. On a rainy sunday so it wasnt too busy. First thing in the morning, and worked great for a solo traveller like me, and out for a solid 6 hours. Would book again no question.

our guide Pablo was nice enough, but a massive herd of elephants crossing in front of us felt a bit rushed honestly, and over easter break.
