A Romantic 11-Day Masai Mara And Diani Beach Holiday

Days 1-2: Welcome to Nairobi | 1 Nights

Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a vehicle will transport you to Hemingways Nairobi, a charming lodge situated in the exclusive Karen area, with breathtaking views of the world-renowned Ngong Hills. While you’re in the area, take a game drive in Nairobi National Park to witness nature’s benevolent giants at the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage or snap a photo of a wild giraffe against the backdrop of modern skyscrapers.

Get a good night’s rest before getting down to the meat of your safari journey at Hemingways, where the serene atmosphere and Michelin-starred cuisine will ease you into your 11-Day Masai Mara & Diani Beach adventure.

Days 2-6: Into the Mara | 4 Nights

You will be whisked away to the world-renowned Masai Mara, Kenya’s crown gem, after breakfast. It has been touted as one of the world’s most picturesque and romantic locations ever since the release of the Robert Redford and Meryl Streep classic, Out of Africa. The presence of Angama Mara further emphasises this fact.

This luxurious lodge is situated on the brink of the Mara Triangle escarpment, making it one of the best safari sites in Africa. Guests may enjoy unique experiences while witnessing excellent animals. On game drives, you may get up close and personal with wild animals in their native environment; in the Mara, you can take a hot-air balloon trip for a bird’s-eye view of the wildlife and scenery. Plus, if your itinerary is perfect, you can witness the Great Wildebeest Migration, one of the most awe-inspiring natural events.

Days 6-11: Bliss Out on the Beach | 5 Nights

After a thrilling traditional safari in Africa’s wilds, you deserve a relaxing retreat like Alfajiri Beach Villa, located just south of the world-famous Diani shoreline in Kenya. Relax in your private villa while taking in views of the serene Indian Ocean and having the attentive staff (including a driver, butler, and masseuse) attend to your every need. You are free to do as you choose during your days here, whether that’s relaxing by the pool or going on an elephant safari in the Shimba Hills. Plus, there are plenty of watersports to partake in, such as snorkelling, scuba diving, and boating, thanks to the proximity to the ocean.

Days 11: Say Your Goodbyes

Returning to Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, the starting point of your journey, is your last destination. Remembering the 11 days of pure ecstasy in Africa, the sundowners in the bush, the sound of fish eagles, and daybreak game drives makes it hard not to vow to return…
