Stay : Two people, one week, a stay in three stages
If you only have a week, you will need a little more money to see the must-see places in Kenya in good conditions. A few days in the Maasai Mara and Amboseli reserves, with a final escapade on the Kenyan coast, can be very well organized, provided you take the plane. An idyllic week that will make you want to come back... longer!

Detail of the stay : Two people, one week, a stay in three stages - 8 days
Day 1: Nairobi, meeting with
In the morning, visit the central market, the most lively and colourful place in Nairobi. The opportunity to immerse yourself in a typically African atmosphere. Visit of the Karen Blixen Museum in the afternoon. For a memorable dinner, choose between the Carnivore and the Lord Delamere Terrace
Day 2: Maasai Mara, the must have par excellence
Steps: Maasai Mara National Reserve
One hour flight to Maasai Mara National Park. A one-day safari from Nairobi is possible. However, a night on the spot seems more reasonable. You will observe all the wild animals, and in the best possible conditions. To accommodate you, there are a multitude of lodges and canvas camps scattered in and around the park, but nothing cheap. Some lodges have their own planes to fly to Nairobi. Choose a smaller, more intimate camp.
Day 3: Preview of Masaai Mara in... hot air balloon!
From your camp, many activities are possible and already exceptional (by day and night safaris, or by foot, dinner in the savanna...), but there is one that is done at least once in life: float over the Mara Mara. This is an expensive but impressive experience. A pure moment of happiness.
Day 4: Amboseli, the other major national park
Steps: Amboseli National Park
Flight to Amboseli. With Kilimanjaro as a backdrop, the variety of its landscapes, and its elephant herds, Amboseli Park is the other must-see. Amboseli, "salty dust" in Maasai, is the land of all contrasts. Small in size, it is quite easy to visit. An evening safari, accommodation in a lodge for one or two nights
Day 5: Amboseli, the other major national park
Two nights in Amboseli will allow you to better immerse yourself in this exceptional site. Personalized safaris by private plane are also possible. Thrills guaranteed and breathtaking landscapes.
Day 6: Mombasa and the Swahili coast
From Ambosleli, there are flights to Mombasa. Otherwise, we'll have to go back to Nairobi. Visit of Mombasa, in the evening accommodation in a seaside resort, for example Diani Beach. Two nights on site are recommended.
Day 7: Lazing around on the Indian Ocean coast
Enjoy the beach. Many excursions are possible, you can choose: swim with dolphins, dive into the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park, parachute jumping... or simply enjoy the beach and the turquoise lagoon that is before your eyes.
