From thrilling game drives across iconic national parks to laid-back days on pristine Indian Ocean beaches, our 10-night Kenya safari and Mombasa getaway delivers the ultimate blend of adventure, culture and relaxation. You’ll start in Nairobi, hand-feeding rescued baby elephants at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust before marveling at the towering giraffes at the Giraffe Centre.
Then venture into the heart of the wilderness—Amboseli, Tsavo and Taita Hills—spotting elephants, lions and other charismatic wildlife against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. Finally, unwind for four nights at the boutique Nomad Beach Resort in Mombasa, where white sands, swaying palms and azure waters await. Every moment is curated to exceed your expectations, backed by over 50 years of Hays Travel expertise and full financial protection through ABTA L9519 and ATOL.

Discover Kenya Your Itinerary Overview: 10 Nights of Wildlife & Beach Bliss
Day 1: Arrival in Nairobi
Your adventure begins at Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. A private transfer escorts you to a boutique city hotel. In the afternoon, visit the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to hand-feed orphaned elephant calves. Later, enjoy sundowners overlooking the city skyline.
Day 2: Giraffe Centre & Departure to Amboseli
Start with an up-close encounter at the Giraffe Centre, feeding Rothschild giraffes from the platform. After brunch, depart by luxury safari coach to Amboseli National Park, arriving in time for your first private 4×4 game drive beneath the looming silhouette of Kilimanjaro.
Days 3–4: Amboseli National Park
Spend two full days exploring Amboseli’s open plains and swamps. Each morning and evening, your private 4×4 game drive offers prime opportunities to photograph herds of elephants, cascading waterbirds and, on lucky days, prowling lions. Between drives, relax at your lodge, enjoying panoramic views of Africa’s highest peak.
Days 5–6: Tsavo East & West
Tsavo East and West combine rugged red-earth landscapes with dense riverine forests. Over two days, track the “Big Five,” cross the famed Lugard Falls and witness the spectacle of flamingos at Lake Jipe. Your accommodation features open-air dining and evening bonfires under a star-studded sky.
Day 7: Taita Hills Game Sanctuary
Transfer to Taita Hills for a contrasting terrain of rolling hills, acacia woodland and lush waterholes. Participate in a guided walking safari, learning about indigenous flora, Maasai culture and animal tracking techniques. End the day with cocktails on a raised viewing deck.

Leaving the bush behind, board the Madaraka Express first-class carriage for a scenic journey to the coast. Savour gourmet meals, panoramic windows and complimentary Wi-Fi as the landscape transforms from savanna to coastal mangroves.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What level of fitness is required for this Kenya safari?
Moderate fitness is ideal. Game drives are done from comfortable 4×4 vehicles, but there’s a guided walking safari in Taita Hills involving short, easy walks. Most lodges have accessible dining and rooms. If you require special assistance, let Louise & Scott know, and they’ll arrange tailored support.
2. Are all flights and transfers included in the price?
Yes. The package includes return flights from Heathrow with Kenya Airways, all domestic transfers by private vehicle, park entry fees, the first-class train journey on Madaraka Express, and airport transfers in Mombasa.
3. Do I need a visa or vaccinations for Kenya?
British passport holders require an e-visa for Kenya, easily obtained online before travel. Recommended vaccinations include yellow fever, typhoid and hepatitis A; a malaria prophylactic is also advised. A detailed medical and visa guide is provided upon booking.
4. How safe is travelling in Kenya & Mombasa?
Kenya is a well-established safari destination with high security in national parks and luxury lodges. Mombasa’s resort areas are safe and monitored by private security. We advise standard travel precautions: avoid isolated areas after dark and follow local guide advice.
5. What kind of accommodation can I expect?
Accommodations range from boutique city hotels in Nairobi to luxury safari lodges with private plunge pools, open-air dining and panoramic decks overlooking watering holes. In Mombasa, Nomad Beach Resort offers beachfront villas with spa access and direct sea views.
6. Can dietary requirements be accommodated?
Absolutely. Whether you’re vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free or have other dietary needs, our catering teams at hotels and lodges are highly experienced. Please share your requirements at booking so we can confirm menus in advance.
7. Is travel insurance included?
Travel insurance is not included, but we strongly recommend comprehensive cover. Your ATOL protection covers flight failure and repatriation, while ABTA membership covers financial failure of our package, but personal medical and cancellation insurance should be arranged separately.
8. How many people are in each safari group?
Our safaris are private—just you and your party in a dedicated 4×4 vehicle with a professional guide. This ensures maximum flexibility, personalised stops and a more intimate wildlife-viewing experience than larger group tours.
9. What currency should I bring?
The official currency is the Kenyan Shilling (KES). Major lodges accept credit cards (Visa/MasterCard), but we recommend carrying small amounts of USD cash for tipping and local market purchases.
