Kenya family safari and Diani beach in 8 days (7 nights)

8 days · Kenya · Nairobi → Diani Beach

A two-stop family trip that pairs the Masai Mara with the south coast, using flights instead of long road transfers. The family flies from Nairobi into the Mara for three nights of morning and afternoon game drives, then takes a flight to Ukunda for four nights at Diani Beach. The coast days are left open for swimming, snorkelling trips and rest, and there is only one transfer day in the middle of the week.
