Taking a Break in Kenya
Synonymous with safari, Kenya is a country that suits those looking for a few days away or a longer holiday.
The Long Weekender
If you’re looking for a quick getaway, Kenya is the perfect destination for a long weekend safari holiday. With direct flights from Heathrow, easy internal connections, and a minimal time difference, you can be on your way to an unforgettable safari experience in just 12 hours. Imagine watching wildebeest playfully running across the plains right in front of your tent at Mara Plains Camp or indulging in exceptional views of Kilimanjaro from Ol Donyo Lodge, where you can enjoy a variety of activities, rejuvenating massages, and delicious food.

A Week-Long Adventure
For those with a little more holiday time, we recommend combining three nights of safari at Lewa Wilderness or Laikipia Wilderness with four nights of relaxation at either Peponi Hotel or WaterLovers on Kenya’s beautiful Indian Ocean coast. You’ll get to enjoy incredible wildlife viewing amid stunning surroundings and then relax in a charismatic beach hotel.

Two Weeks or More
Kenya offers such a diverse range of holiday experiences, from a variety of mammal and bird species to dramatic geographical differences, that you can easily spread your safari across two or three distinct locations. Marvel at the abundant wildlife in Masai Mara, explore the Laikipia region on camelback or horseback, and admire the rugged beauty of the Mathews Mountains. We suggest visiting Saruni Mara, Sirikoi, and Sarara for a multi-location safari holiday, followed by some well-deserved rest and relaxation at Kinondo Kwetu beach. This combination would be just perfect for a trip lasting two weeks or longer.
