Beach or Home

Monday

After breakfast, return to Nairobi (300 km), and fly to Mombasa for your beach stay, or alternatively fly back to Heathrow.

You can stay as long as you like on the coast, and even mix and match hotels if you can't decide where to stay, but for the purposes of pricing we have shown prices assuming 7 nights at a gem of a hotel called Pinewood Village.

Your flight to Mombasa is as follows:
Nairobi (17:30) - Mombasa (18:30)
From the airport, you will be transferred to your hotel.

Accommodation

7 nights at Pinewood Village

Pinewood Village is a small boutique hotel with a relaxed ambience, friendly staff, and a much more personal feel to it than some other hotels. The highlight is the superb white sandy beach but many of our customers love the gardens which are filled with birds and monkeys. By the main restaurant is a most beautiful fish pond. Bright yellow Golden Palm Weavers are here and you could spend the whole time just watching them.

Every evening there is a different theme, so it could be from an English Roast to a Mongolian dinner. It is also possible to have candlelit dinners on the beach. The food is good and fresh, and because they have a vegetable garden some guests even pick their own vegetables for the chef to cook for them. There is also an informal, cosy new restaurant down at the beach in a magical setting. Here you may be served a BBQ dinner with entertainment. And if you like pizza then try the pizza oven near the beach. This is actually built into some old coral, and the chef here makes delicious thin-crust pizzas. All the ingredients he uses are fresh. Superb!

NOTES

1. A visa is required to enter Kenya, and it is currently US$ 25, payable on entry. It is possible to buy a visa beforehand, but it takes at least 3 working days, even in person, so we recommend just getting one on arrival.

2. Malaria precautions are recommended for holidays to Kenya. There are various tablets available but it is best to speak to your GP or Travel nurse for best advice.

3. An exclusive safari vehicle is available - please call for prices

4. You get a guaranteed window seat on all days

5. You have a guide throughout the safari who will know the best places to go to view the game

6. Early morning hot air balloon trips are pre-bookable in the Masai Mara - these are normally around £265 per person. Afterwards, you will have a 'bubbly' breakfast in the bush.

7. Prices based on Kenya Airways, but flights with BA and Virgin also available at a supplement
