How Trip Planning Works
A Tailored Kenya Itinerary vs. a Fixed Package
A fixed safari package is built once and sold to every traveller who books it. A tailored itinerary is built once, for one traveller, around five variables: travel dates, party size, budget per person, destinations, and travel style. Two people visiting the Masai Mara in the same week can end up with entirely different trips — a honeymoon couple prioritising a small, adults-only camp and privacy, and a family of five travelling with grandparents who need connecting rooms and a gentler game-drive schedule. Sun & Safari’s trip planner exists to capture those variables directly, rather than fitting a traveller into a template designed for the average visitor.
The output of the form above is a working itinerary, not a brochure: named lodges and camps with specific room types and rates, the internal flights or road transfers that connect them, the park and conservancy fees included in the quoted price, and a day-by-day split between game drives and coastal time. Because the proposal is drawn from your answers rather than adapted from a template, revising it is simple — replacing one Masai Mara camp with a smaller, more exclusive property in a private conservancy, or adding two nights on Lamu, does not require starting the process again.
Every ready-made itinerary Sun & Safari also sells — visible on the packages page — began as a version of this same process, refined into a fixed route because enough travellers requested a similar combination of region, length, and season. The trip planner produces the same quality of itinerary for a route that does not yet exist as a package, or for a traveller who wants specific adjustments a fixed package cannot accommodate.
The sections below set out the destinations, budgets, travel styles, timing, and logistics that feed into a Kenya itinerary, so that whatever is entered into the form above has a clear effect on the resulting trip.
The Planning Variables
What Travel Dates, Party Size, Budget, Destinations, and Style Each Determine
Five fields in the trip planner form drive nearly every decision a consultant makes when building a Kenya itinerary. Understanding what each one controls makes the resulting proposal more accurate on the first draft.
Travel dates
Dates set which safari and coastal seasons a trip falls into, which in turn affects wildlife visibility, road conditions, rainfall, and price. A trip in August sits inside the wildebeest migration’s peak Mara River crossing window and the coast’s Kusi monsoon wind season favoured by kitesurfers in Diani; a trip in April sits inside Kenya’s long rains, with lower rates, quieter parks, and a wetter, greener landscape. Dates also determine how far in advance a booking needs to be made, since camps in the Masai Mara and boutique coastal properties sell out earliest for peak-season travel.
Party size and composition
The number of adults, the number of children, and their ages determine vehicle allocation, room configuration, and which camps are realistic. A family of six needs either connecting rooms or a private villa; a group of twelve needs either multiple vehicles travelling together or a lodge with the inventory to hold the full party. Children under a certain age are restricted from some smaller adults-only camps, which is one reason “family” as a travel style narrows the lodge shortlist independently of budget.
Budget per person
Budget, quoted per person and excluding international flights, determines the tier of camp or lodge, whether game drives are shared or private, and how many regions the itinerary can realistically include without compromising time in any one place. Budget is the variable most travellers are least certain about entering, which is why “Advise me” is a valid answer in the form — a consultant will suggest a tier once destinations and style are known, rather than working backward from a number alone.
Destinations
Ticking the Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, Samburu, Diani, Watamu, Malindi, or Lamu in the form sets the geographic skeleton of the trip: which internal flights or road transfers are needed, which ecosystems and species will be seen, and how the days split between bush and beach. Leaving this section blank, or ticking “Help me decide,” shifts that decision to the consultant, who will propose a combination based on the other four variables instead.
Travel style
Honeymoon, family, photography, adventure, pure relaxation, and group or corporate travel each change the pacing, camp selection, and activity list independently of which destinations are chosen. Two Masai Mara itineraries — one built for a honeymoon, one for a photography-focused traveller — can use entirely different camps and vehicle arrangements even on the same dates and at the same budget.
The Bush
Kenya’s Safari Regions: Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, and Samburu
Kenya’s four principal safari regions are often grouped together as “the bush,” but they differ enough in landscape, wildlife, and access that the choice materially changes an itinerary’s route, cost, and pacing. Each is described below with the attributes that distinguish it, so that ticking a box in the destinations section of the trip planner means something specific to your consultant.
Masai Mara
The Masai Mara National Reserve is the Kenyan extension of the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem shared with Tanzania, and holds the country’s densest population of lions, cheetahs, and leopards. It is the stage for the wildebeest migration’s Mara River crossings, which typically peak between July and October as more than a million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebra move north from the Serengeti in search of grazing. The reserve sits roughly 45 minutes by light aircraft from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport — the shortest flight of any major safari region — which makes it both the easiest to reach and the busiest. Private conservancies bordering the reserve, including Mara Naboisho, Olare Motorogi, and Mara North, cap vehicle numbers per sighting and are typically recommended to travellers who want the same wildlife with fewer vehicles present.
Amboseli
Amboseli National Park is built around one recurring image: large elephant herds crossing open plains with Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, rising behind them on clear mornings, most reliably at dawn before cloud builds over the mountain. The park’s landscape is smaller and drier than the Mara’s, and its predator sightings are less frequent, which is why it is recommended specifically for travellers prioritising one iconic photographic scene over the widest range of species. Amboseli pairs naturally with the Masai Mara as a two-region safari, since both sit a short flight from Nairobi and Wilson Airport.
Tsavo East & West
Tsavo is Kenya’s largest national park, split into an eastern half known for its “red elephants” — a colouring caused by dust-bathing in the area’s iron-rich soil — and a western half of volcanic hills, natural springs, and the Mzima Springs hippo and crocodile pools, viewable from an underwater observation chamber. Tsavo receives far fewer visitors than the Mara or Amboseli, suiting travellers who want bush solitude, and it sits directly on the road and rail corridor between Nairobi and Mombasa, making it a practical stop-over for a bush-then-beach itinerary that avoids a second internal flight.
Samburu
North of the equator and drier than the other three regions, Samburu National Reserve sits along the Ewaso Ng’iro River and is home to a distinct set of species rarely seen further south, sometimes called the “Samburu Special Five”: the Grevy’s zebra, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich, gerenuk, and beisa oryx. The Samburu people, close cultural relatives of the Maasai, maintain a strong pastoralist tradition that shapes many camp experiences here. Samburu is typically recommended to repeat visitors who have already covered the Mara and Amboseli and want a different ecosystem and species list rather than a repeat of the same wildlife.
How the four regions relate to each other
The Masai Mara and Amboseli are the two most commonly combined regions on a first Kenya safari, since both are short flights from Wilson Airport and together cover the widest range of iconic sightings — predators and the migration in the Mara, elephants and Kilimanjaro in Amboseli. Tsavo functions differently: its position on the Nairobi-Mombasa corridor makes it a transit-friendly region for travellers who want a safari without adding an internal flight before reaching the coast, rather than a region chosen purely for its wildlife density. Samburu sits apart from the other three geographically and ecologically, and is usually added to a longer itinerary or a return trip rather than a first safari. More detail on each ecosystem, including species checklists and conservancy options, is available on the destinations page.
The Beach
Kenya’s Coast: Diani, Watamu, Malindi, and Lamu
Kenya’s coastline runs roughly 500km along the Indian Ocean, and the four beach destinations most travellers choose between are not interchangeable. Distance from the coastal gateway airports, marine geography, and the character of each town all shift the experience considerably.
| Destination | Character | Best for | Getting there |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diani Beach | Wide, powdery white sand backed by coral cliffs and coconut palms; the coast’s most developed resort strip | Kitesurfing, family resorts, nightlife within walking distance of the beach | South of Mombasa; a short road transfer or ferry crossing from Mombasa’s Moi International Airport |
| Watamu | Quieter, protected by Watamu Marine National Park’s coral reef and calm lagoon | Snorkelling, diving, sea-turtle nesting sites, honeymoons wanting a lower-key setting than Diani | North of Mombasa, roughly a 20-minute flight from Mombasa or a longer road transfer |
| Malindi | A historic town with a visible Italian expatriate community and colonial-era architecture alongside Swahili heritage sites, adjacent to Malindi Marine National Park | Deep-sea fishing, a livelier town base with easy access to Watamu’s reef | Own airport (Malindi Airport) with direct flights from Nairobi and Mombasa |
| Lamu | A UNESCO World Heritage Old Town with no motor vehicles — transport is by foot, donkey, or dhow sailboat | Travellers prioritising culture, Swahili architecture, and seclusion over resort infrastructure | Fly to Lamu Airport, then a short dhow or speedboat transfer to the island |
Because Diani sits closest to Mombasa’s international airport, it is the default choice for shorter trips or itineraries that also include Tsavo. Watamu and Malindi work well together as a single base with two distinct experiences a short drive apart — Watamu for the reef, Malindi for the town and deep-sea fishing charters. Lamu, the most remote and culturally distinct of the four, is usually recommended as an addition to a longer itinerary rather than a first-time traveller’s only coastal stop. Full detail on each town, including specific beaches, marine parks, and dhow operators, is on the coast page.
Bush & Beach Combinations
How Safari Regions and Coastal Towns Connect
Kenya’s safari regions and coastal towns are close enough to combine within a single trip without long travel days, which is the defining feature of a Kenya itinerary compared with safari destinations elsewhere in East and Southern Africa. Movement between them is almost always by light aircraft rather than road, since a flight from the Masai Mara to Diani or Watamu takes well under two hours, against a full day or more of driving. Tsavo is the exception: its position directly between Nairobi and Mombasa makes a road transfer practical, and it is often used to link a safari and beach itinerary without adding a flight.
| Safari region | Common coastal pairing | Typical link |
|---|---|---|
| Masai Mara | Diani Beach or Watamu | Light aircraft, often routed via Nairobi’s Wilson Airport |
| Amboseli | Diani Beach | Light aircraft via Nairobi, or combined with a Masai Mara leg first |
| Tsavo East & West | Diani Beach | Direct road transfer, since Tsavo sits on the Nairobi-Mombasa corridor |
| Samburu | Watamu or Malindi | Light aircraft via Nairobi; usually added to a longer, multi-region itinerary |
Domestic flights on these routes are typically on 12- to 14-seat aircraft with strict baggage allowances, usually around 15kg in a soft-sided bag, which a consultant will flag if an itinerary includes multiple internal flights.
Travel Style
How Honeymoon, Family, Photography, Adventure, Relaxation, and Group Travel Change the Route
The same two regions — the Masai Mara and Diani Beach, for example — produce different itineraries depending on who is travelling and why. Selecting a style in the trip planner tells your consultant which of the following priorities to design around.
Honeymoon
Smaller camps with adults-only policies, private dining, and a beach stay biased toward seclusion over resort scale — Watamu and Lamu feature more often here than Diani.
Family
Family-friendly lodges with connecting or triple rooms, shorter game-drive blocks suited to children, and a beach base like Diani with shallow lagoons and resort activity programmes.
Photography
Extra nights in fewer locations rather than a wide-ranging circuit, private vehicles for unrestricted positioning, and timing built around specific events such as the Mara River crossings.
Adventure
Walking safaris in Samburu, night game drives where permitted, hot-air balloon flights over the Mara at dawn, and activity-dense coastal add-ons like kitesurfing in Diani or deep-sea fishing from Malindi.
Pure relaxation
Fewer transfers, longer stays per location, and a coastal-heavy split — sometimes a single safari region followed by the majority of the trip on the coast rather than an even split.
Group / corporate
Camps and lodges with the room inventory to hold a full group together, private vehicle allocations sized to the party, and a single consolidated invoice for the organiser. Larger or corporate itineraries are handled by a senior consultant — see the contact page for group enquiry routing.
Budget
What Each Budget Range Typically Includes
“Budget per person” in the trip planner refers to in-country costs excluding international flights: accommodation, park and conservancy fees, internal transport, most meals, and game drives. Kenya’s range is wide, and what changes between tiers is less about whether wildlife is seen — every tier delivers genuine game viewing — and more about privacy, vehicle exclusivity, and room standard.
| Range (per person) | What typically changes |
|---|---|
| Under $500 | Shared-vehicle group safaris, budget tented camps or guesthouses, national parks over private conservancies. |
| $500 – $1,000 | Mid-range lodges and tented camps, a mix of shared and semi-private game drives, a wider choice of parks. |
| $1,000 – $2,500 | Boutique camps, private vehicles for game drives, conservancies with limits on vehicle numbers per sighting. |
| $2,500 – $5,000 | Premium camps and lodges, fully private guiding, extras like bush breakfasts, sundowners, and spa facilities. |
| $5,000+ | Ultra-exclusive camps with very few rooms, private vehicles and guides throughout, and add-ons like helicopter or scenic flight transfers between camps. |
Budget interacts directly with destination and style: a photography-focused Masai Mara conservancy stay generally sits at $1,000–$2,500 per person or above, since private-vehicle access is central to that style, while a family itinerary split between Tsavo and Diani can be built comfortably in the $500–$1,000 range using mid-range lodges. If unsure which range fits, selecting “Advise me” in the trip planner is the most common choice — your consultant will suggest the tier that matches your destinations and travel style rather than the reverse.
Where You’ll Stay
Tented Camps, Lodges, and Private Villas
“Camp” and “lodge” are used loosely across Kenya’s safari industry, but the distinction matters when comparing quotes generated from the trip planner.
Tented camps
Despite the name, tented camps at the mid-range and above have solid floors, en-suite bathrooms, and real beds — the “tent” is a canvas wall and roof rather than a description of the interior. They sit lighter on the land, move seasonally in some conservancies, and are the standard choice for travellers who want an authentic bush feel without sacrificing comfort. Most Masai Mara and Samburu properties recommended for photography or honeymoon itineraries fall into this category.
Lodges
Permanent brick-and-thatch structures, often larger, with more fixed infrastructure such as swimming pools, spas, and conference facilities. Lodges suit families and groups who want more communal space and a wider range of on-site facilities, and are common in Amboseli and Tsavo.
Private villas and houses
An entire property — sometimes with its own vehicle, guide, and chef — booked for one group only. This is the usual recommendation for multi-generational families or groups large enough to fill a property, since it removes the need to coordinate with other guests’ schedules. On the coast, the equivalent range runs from beachfront hotel rooms, through boutique guesthouses, to private beach villas with a dedicated cook and housekeeping staff, most commonly on Diani and Lamu.
Timing
Best Time to Visit Kenya for Safari and Beach
Kenya’s safari and beach seasons don’t always align, which is one reason travel dates sit at the top of the trip planner form.
Safari timing
The dry seasons — late June through October, and January through February — bring the clearest game viewing, since animals cluster around permanent water sources and vegetation thins out. The Masai Mara’s wildebeest migration crossings typically peak between July and September, though exact timing shifts year to year with rainfall further south in the Serengeti. The “short rains” in November and the “long rains” from March to May bring lush scenery, fewer visitors, and lower rates, at the cost of some road access and less predictable sightings — a factor relevant to Tsavo and Samburu in particular, where some roads are unpaved.
Coastal timing
The coast is warm year-round, but the long rains (April–May) bring the heaviest downpours and are the quietest, cheapest period to visit. The Kaskazi monsoon (roughly December–March) brings calmer seas favoured for diving and snorkelling around Watamu’s reef and Malindi Marine National Park, while the Kusi monsoon (roughly June–September) brings stronger winds that kitesurfers travelling to Diani specifically plan around.
Because bush and beach seasons don’t move in lockstep, a consultant reviewing submitted travel dates will sometimes suggest adjusting the split between the two — for example, front-loading safari days during peak migration weeks in the Masai Mara and treating the coastal leg in Diani or Watamu as the more flexible half of the trip.
Worked Examples
Three Sample Kenya Itineraries
The trip length, destinations, and style selected in the form each map onto a recognisable itinerary shape. The three examples below illustrate how those selections translate into a day-by-day route; your own itinerary would be built around your specific dates, budget, and camp preferences.
Classic 7-day bush & beach: Masai Mara + Diani
The most common trip length selected in the form is six to eight days, and the most common region pairing is the Masai Mara with Diani Beach.
| Day | Location | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nairobi → Masai Mara | Morning flight from Wilson Airport; afternoon game drive on arrival. |
| 2–3 | Masai Mara | Full-day game drives, an optional dawn hot-air balloon flight, and a bush breakfast or sundowner. |
| 4 | Masai Mara → Diani Beach | Morning game drive, then a flight via Nairobi or a direct connection to the coast, arriving in time for dinner. |
| 5–6 | Diani Beach | Free days for the beach, snorkelling trips to Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park, or a half-day dhow cruise. |
| 7 | Diani Beach → Departure | Final morning at leisure before a road or ferry transfer to Mombasa’s Moi International Airport. |
Swapping Diani for Watamu adds roughly 20 minutes to the coastal flight but shifts the emphasis toward reef snorkelling and turtle-watching over resort infrastructure. See the packages page for fixed-route versions of this itinerary already priced by season.
10-day multi-region safari: Amboseli + Samburu + Watamu
Extending a trip to nine to twelve days most often adds a second safari region rather than lengthening a single stay, since three nights is usually enough to see one region properly without repeating game drives.
| Day | Location | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | Amboseli | Elephant herds against Mount Kilimanjaro; game drives timed for the clearest morning views of the mountain. |
| 4 | Amboseli → Samburu | Flight via Nairobi to Kenya’s arid north. |
| 5–6 | Samburu | Game drives focused on the Samburu Special Five; an optional walking safari or cultural visit to a Samburu community. |
| 7 | Samburu → Watamu | Flight via Nairobi to the coast. |
| 8–9 | Watamu | Snorkelling or diving on Watamu Marine National Park’s reef; a day trip to Malindi for deep-sea fishing or town sightseeing. |
| 10 | Watamu → Departure | Final morning at leisure before transfer to Malindi Airport or Mombasa. |
Honeymoon extension: Masai Mara + Lamu
A honeymoon-style itinerary typically biases toward fewer, longer stays and the more secluded coastal options.
| Day | Location | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4 | Masai Mara | A private-conservancy tented camp, private game-drive vehicle, and a bush-dinner or balloon-safari add-on. |
| 5 | Masai Mara → Lamu | Flight via Nairobi to Lamu Airport, then a short dhow transfer to the island. |
| 6–8 | Lamu | Lamu Old Town’s car-free streets, a sunset dhow sail, and days at leisure on Shela Beach. |
| 9 | Lamu → Departure | Dhow or speedboat transfer to Lamu Airport for the return flight via Nairobi. |
Practicalities
Visas, Internal Flights, Health, and Money
Visas and entry
Most nationalities travelling to Kenya now apply for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) online in advance rather than obtaining a visa on arrival; requirements vary by passport, and your consultant includes current guidance in every itinerary proposal. Final confirmation should come from Kenyan immigration authorities ahead of travel.
Internal flights and transfers
Movement between safari regions and the coast is almost always by light aircraft rather than road, since a flight from the Masai Mara to Diani or Watamu takes well under two hours compared to a full day or more of driving. Tsavo is the exception, since its location directly between Nairobi and Mombasa makes a road transfer practical. Domestic flights on these routes are typically on 12- to 14-seat aircraft with strict baggage allowances, usually around 15kg in a soft-sided bag, which your consultant will flag if your trip includes multiple internal flights.
Health and vaccinations
A yellow fever certificate is required for travellers arriving from countries with risk of transmission, and malaria prophylaxis is generally recommended for safari regions, though not usually for a coast-only trip. Requirements change, so confirming current guidance with a travel clinic or your doctor closer to departure is recommended rather than relying on a general itinerary note.
What to pack
Neutral-coloured, lightweight clothing works best for game drives, since bright colours and dark blacks can attract tsetse flies in some areas, including parts of the Masai Mara and Tsavo. Mornings and evenings in the Mara, Amboseli, and Samburu can be cool even in the dry season, so a light jacket or fleece is worth packing alongside the shorts and swimwear needed for the coast.
Currency and payments
The Kenyan shilling is the local currency, though most safari camps and coastal resorts quote and settle in US dollars. Cash tips for guides and camp staff are customary and worth budgeting for separately from the trip cost; your consultant can advise typical amounts once your itinerary is confirmed.
Connectivity
Remote safari camps in Samburu and parts of the Masai Mara often have limited or no mobile signal, though most now offer Wi-Fi in communal areas or guest tents. Coastal towns, including Diani, Watamu, and Malindi, have reliable 4G coverage — one reason some itineraries deliberately place the “disconnect” portion of a trip in the bush and save communication-heavy days for the coast.
Timing a Booking
How Far Ahead to Book, and How the Deposit Works
Booking lead time depends primarily on the travel dates selected in the trip planner. For travel during the Masai Mara’s July to October migration season, or the December holiday period at the coast, six to nine months’ notice is recommended, since the smallest camps in the Mara and boutique properties on Diani and Watamu are the first to sell out. Outside those peak windows — the long rains from March to May, or the quieter months either side of the main dry season — two to four months’ notice is usually enough to secure a full choice of camps and lodges.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Planning a Kenya Trip
What is the difference between the Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, and Samburu?
The Masai Mara has Kenya’s highest density of predators and the wildebeest migration’s Mara River crossings between July and October. Amboseli offers close elephant sightings with Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop. Tsavo, Kenya’s largest protected area, suits travellers who want fewer crowds and a road link between Nairobi and the coast. Samburu, in Kenya’s arid north, holds species not found further south, such as the Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe.
Should a Kenya safari be combined with a beach stay?
Yes — Kenya is one of the few destinations where a safari region and an Indian Ocean beach sit within a single short domestic flight of each other, which is why the classic six-to-eight day itinerary is built around combining a safari region such as the Masai Mara with a coastal stay in Diani, Watamu, Malindi, or Lamu.
How long does it take to receive a tailored itinerary after submitting the trip planner?
A dedicated consultant reviews your submitted travel dates, party size, destinations, style, and budget, then replies with a draft itinerary that includes a suggested route, specific lodges or camps, internal flight or road-transfer options, and a per-person price, within one business day.
How far in advance should I book?
For travel during the July–October migration season or the December holidays, book six to nine months ahead, since the smallest camps in the Mara and boutique properties on Diani and Watamu sell out first. Outside those windows, two to four months’ notice is usually enough.
Do I need a visa or eTA to visit Kenya?
Most nationalities require an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) applied for online before departure. We include visa guidance in every itinerary proposal, but the exact requirement depends on your passport and should be confirmed with Kenyan immigration authorities.
What’s the difference between a tented camp and a lodge?
A tented camp uses canvas walls and roofing over a solid floor and fixed en-suite bathroom, giving an immersive bush feel without sacrificing comfort, while a lodge is a permanent brick-and-thatch structure that typically offers more communal facilities such as pools and spas. Both range from mid-range to ultra-luxury; the choice is about atmosphere rather than comfort level.
Does it cost anything to use the trip planner?
No — using the planner and receiving a draft itinerary is free and carries no obligation. A deposit is only required once you decide to proceed, to secure specific rooms and flight seats, with the balance payable in flexible instalments before departure.
Do I need vaccinations or malaria tablets for Kenya?
A yellow fever certificate is required if you’re arriving from a country with risk of transmission, and malaria prophylaxis is generally advised for safari regions, though usually not for a coast-only itinerary. Requirements change, so confirming current guidance with a travel clinic or doctor closer to your departure date is recommended.
What if I’m not sure which destinations, budget, or dates to choose?
Every field in the trip planner except your contact details is optional. Ticking “Help me decide” under destinations, selecting “Not sure yet” for trip length, or choosing “Advise me” for budget hands that decision to your consultant, who will propose a route based on whichever fields you did complete.
