Summary
Journey through Kenya on a six-day adventure that blends wild savannahs with coastal charm. Begin in the buzzing capital of Nairobi and ride the legendary “Iron Snake” railway to Tsavo, where red elephants roam and wildlife steals the spotlight on morning and afternoon safaris. Then swap savannahs for seaside in Watamu, a tropical paradise teeming with whale sharks, turtles, and vibrant reefs.
