Day 1: Arrive in Kenya, Flight to Mombasa, & Mombasa and Fort Jesus Tour
Arrive in Kenya and catch a local flight from JKIA to Mombasa. Be picked up from the airport and taken for a Mombasa and Fort Jesus tour. Your first stop is Fort Jesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Admire the architecture of the fort and see the graffiti on the walls, which nods to European culture, while the etchings and writings nod to Arabic and Swahili cultures. Visit the Mazrui Hall and the Omani House, and see the warships used by the Portuguese in the 1697 war against the Omani.

Later, head east for the Passages of the Arches and the Omani Audience Hall. Do a short city tour as you head to the hotel for check-in and lunch. Spend the afternoon at the hotel or visit the beach.

Day 2: Visit Shimba Hills National Park and Transfer to Diani
Take breakfast, check out of the Mombasa hotel, and then go for a 2-hour drive to Shimba Hills National Park. Admire the park's diverse landscapes, high-pitched slopes, sharp valleys, and green vegetation.

Look out for wildlife, including ostriches, Maasai giraffes, leopards, buffalos, baboons, warthogs, monkeys, hyenas, waterbucks, and over 100 different bird species. See the Sable antelope, the last breeding of its species.

Make the first stop at Shimba Hill’s Pengo Hill for a priceless view of the park’s landscape. Spot a few of the 600 elephants in the park. Head to Sheldrick Falls, the park’s most attractive part. The scenic falls are 82 feet long.

Transfer to Diani Beach.
