Overview
Combine Kenya and Zanzibar, at your pace
Eleven days combining Kenya's two best-known parks with Zanzibar's beaches — the Mara for the plains, Amboseli for elephants under Kilimanjaro, then a flight to the coast.
Not in the fifteen-tour index, but built from the same park visits as our other Kenya itineraries — ask if you would rather adjust the balance of safari to beach days.
