Kenya Grand Safari & 7-Night Mombasa Beach Stay with Flights – 16 Days
The Ark, Samburu, Lake Nakuru and the Maasai Mara, then a week on the beach, with flights.
16 days
From £4,963 incl. flights
Tour overview
This 16-day holiday pairs a classic Kenyan safari with a full week on the beach. Return flights are included, and a tour director travels with the group, which numbers no more than twenty-four, by 4×4 safari vehicle. You stay six nights full board in safari lodges, a night at the Fairmont Norfolk in Nairobi and seven all-inclusive nights at a Mombasa beach resort, plus a night in flight.
From Nairobi you head to the Aberdares for a night at the Ark, overlooking a floodlit waterhole, then two nights in Samburu among the wildlife of the arid north. You cross the Rift Valley to Lake Nakuru for its rhinos and flamingos.

Two nights at Keekorok Lodge in the Maasai Mara bring game drives across the plains. After a night at the historic Fairmont Norfolk in Nairobi, you fly to the coast for a week of all-inclusive relaxation on the beach north of Mombasa.
The physical rating is low. This holiday suits travellers who want a full safari and a proper beach holiday in one.
