Big Cat Safari & Coast - Kenya Family Holiday

11 Days - from $4383

Game in the Masai MaraStay in a small bush camp Visit the stunning Watamu Beach

The Masai Mara and exotic Kenyan coast are undoubtedly two of East Africa's highlights. The Kenyan wildlife is outstanding, and we can enjoy abundant birdlife at Lake Elementaita; the lakeshore is only a short walk from our lodge. In the Masai Mara the game is usually bustling around our luxury camp on the edge of the Mara River, and we enjoy spectacular game drives starting right from our camp. On the Kenyan coast we stay on Watamu Beach, which boasts sandy white beaches and crystal clear waters, perfect for relaxing and snorkelling.Read our MD's account of his family's visit to the Masai MaraThe Sunday Times - writes about the perfect safari in Kenya (12 October 2008).
