10 Days in Kenya: Elite Multi-Generational Safari & Coastal Wellness

Arrive in Nairobi and begin the luxury transition with a private transfer. Check into your hotel for a soft landing. Spend the afternoon meeting the resident Rothschild’s giraffes or visiting the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to foster an orphaned elephant. Enjoy a sophisticated welcome dinner at a high-end restaurant, preparing for the adventure ahead.

Begin your adventure with a private charter or scheduled flight to the Maasai Mara. After settling into your exclusive-use tented villa, the afternoon introduces a hands-on “Junior Ranger Program” designed for teens. It’s a day of connection and discovery—tracking wildlife with expert guides and ending with a family sundowner in the bush, surrounded by the calls of the savannah.

Start the day before sunrise for an unforgettable aerial view of the Maasai Mara during a hot-air balloon ride, watching the plains glow gold as herds move below. After landing, enjoy a champagne bush breakfast before returning to camp for some downtime.

In the afternoon, head out on a guided walking safari or cultural visit with Maasai warriors. This experience deepens your family’s understanding of life on the savannah and the importance of conservation.

Today is all about purpose and connection. Spend the morning visiting a Maasai-run conservation project supported by your camp, where local guides share how tourism directly funds wildlife protection and education. In the afternoon, take a nature walk to learn traditional tracking skills or relax before an exciting night drive—exclusive to private conservancies—spotting nocturnal creatures under a vast starlit sky. It’s a day that bridges adventure with impact.

After a final breakfast overlooking the Mara plains, board a scenic flight toward Kenya’s coast, trading golden savannahs for the turquoise Indian Ocean. Upon arrival, you’ll transfer to your private villa in Diani or Lamu, where palm trees sway and the pace slows beautifully.

Spend the afternoon unwinding by the pool or strolling on the beach as the sun sets. End the evening with a Swahili-inspired dinner served by a private chef—your first taste of coastal serenity after the thrill of safari life.

Immerse yourself in the soul of the Swahili Coast today. Set sail on a private traditional dhow, gliding across turquoise waters toward a secluded snorkeling cove surrounded by coral reefs. Later, wander through Lamu’s UNESCO-listed Old Town or visit a local market in Diani, where vibrant fabrics and spices fill the air. End the afternoon with a family spa treatment or sunset mocktails by the sea—a day that blends culture, calm, and connection to Kenya’s coastal heritage.

Begin your morning with the rhythm of the ocean—sunrise yoga or beach meditation as waves roll softly ashore. After breakfast, the day opens to adventure: try scuba diving, snorkeling, or deep-sea fishing with expert local guides. Teens can take an introductory dive lesson while adults enjoy a coastal spa treatment or a lazy afternoon under the palms. As evening falls, gather for a barefoot sunset walk and dinner by lantern light, celebrating the beauty of slowing down together.

Ease into a slow morning on the coast with breakfast served al fresco, the sound of waves setting the pace for the day. Take part in a private Swahili cooking class with a local chef, learning age-old coastal recipes rich in spice and story. Later, enjoy a leisurely afternoon by the pool or a gentle beach walk as the sun melts into the horizon—a peaceful balance of culture and relaxation.

Savor your last full day in paradise at your own rhythm. Spend the morning snorkeling, kayaking, or simply lounging under the palms as the ocean breeze drifts through. In the evening, gather for a private beach bonfire dinner complete with fresh-caught seafood, laughter, and stories from your journey. It’s a night of reflection and gratitude—celebrating family, adventure, and the unforgettable beauty of Kenya’s coast.

Wake to the gentle sound of waves and enjoy a final breakfast on the terrace, taking in the calm of the coast one last time. Your private transfer will escort you to the local airstrip for your flight back to Nairobi, where your international journey home begins. As you depart, carry with you the rhythm of the Mara, the serenity of the sea, and memories of a journey that brought your family closer to each other and to Africa’s timeless heart.
