Kenya: Baby Cheetah Safari & Malindi Beach Getaway

This eight-night journey pairs one of Somak’s Signature Safaris, the Baby Cheetah Sarova to two of Kenya's greatest wildlife reserves, the perfect introduction for first-time safari-goers or anyone short on time, with the warm shores of the Indian Ocean. It is the classic Kenyan combination: big skies and bigger game, followed by barefoot days on the beach. 

Begin in the Great Rift Valley at Lake Nakuru, a protected sanctuary for both black and white rhinos and a soft landing into Kenya's wild side. From there, continue to the legendary Masai Mara, widely regarded as the finest safari destination in the country, where rolling hills, grassy plains and winding rivers play host to the Big Five and a remarkable cast of plains game. After three nights tracking lion, elephant and cheetah across the Mara, swap dust for sea breeze with a five-night stay at Diamonds Malindi, set on the coast just north of Mombasa.

Why You’ll Love This Trip! 
One week, two unforgettable halves, and absolutely no compromise. Your safari kicks off at Lake Nakuru, where you will come face to face with rhino against the dramatic backdrop of the Rift Valley. Then it is on to the legendary Masai Mara, the stuff of every wildlife documentary you have ever loved, where lion, leopard and cheetah roam plains so vast they seem to stretch forever. And just when you think it cannot get any better, you swap the open savannah for the Indian Ocean, where five blissful nights at Diamonds Malindi await. Think powder-soft sand, cocktails at sunset, and absolutely nothing on the agenda but unwinding. It is the perfect pairing of adventure and indulgence, and exactly the kind of trip you will be talking about for years.
