Summary Of The Route and Costs
Enjoy a spectacular location in the Masai Mara wilderness for 3 nights where if you are here during the Great Migration period you will be a short drive from the Mara River, giving you a chance to witness more than a million wildebeest and zebra as they make their perilous migration river crossing. Then fly to the beach for a 4 night stay at an award-winning boutique hotel.
Mara Intrepids offers some of the world's finest game viewing with large local populations of plains game, elephants, rhinos, buffalos and all the big cats. In 2004, some 75% of the footage for the BBC's famous Big Cat Diary was shot in the vicinity of the camp. With its enviable position, overlooking the Talek River and just a short drive from the airstrip, this is an ideal location for anyone looking for a first or a repeat safari in the iconic Masai Mara National Reserve.
You then fly from the Masai Mara via Nairobi to the Kenyan coast.
Pinewood Beach Resort & Spa is situated south of Mombasa on the unspoilt shores of the wonderfully warm Indian Ocean at Diani Beach. Savour fine food prepared using fresh local ingredients from the hotel's very own vegetable garden or straight from the ocean and indulge your appetite during the daily changing delectable evening theme dinner feasts. Round off your day with a classic colourful cocktail in the cool ocean breeze and let your mind escape.
