KENYA HOLIDAYS AND SAFARIS

ABOUT THE ITINERARY

Indulge in a week-long escape to Manda Bay in Kenya’s idyllic Lamu Archipelago, a secluded island hideaway where soft white sands merge into the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. After spending one night in Nairobi, you will be transported to the small, privately-owned Manda Bay on the north-western tip of Manda Island. Enjoy six nights in a breezy palm-thatched cottage overlooking an empty beach and pristine reef, where days can be as active or as laidback as you like. Unwind by the landscaped pool or choose from an enticing menu of snorkelling, kite surfing and deep sea fishing.

Day 2-7

MANDA ISLAND, LAMU ARCHIPELAGO

Now it’s time to see another side of Kenya. Returning to Wilson Airport, a light aircraft flight and 30-minute boat transfer brings you to Manda Bay, a secluded beach hideaway set on an idyllic island in the Lamu Archipelago.

The sea surrounding the lodge is safe, calm and warm, so you can fill your days with various water sports such as scuba diving and snorkelling on spectacular coral reefs, kayaking in crystal clear waters and deep sea fishing. The island’s birdwatching opportunities are fantastic, whilst early evening game drives in the bush behind the lodge offers encounters with buffalo, dik-dik and bushbuck.

Otherwise, you can soak up some sun on the pristine beach or by the beautiful landscaped swimming pool. The property also boasts an inviting lounge where you can relax and drink in stunning views across the bay.

Stay: Six nights at Manda Bay – full board

“A TRUSTED CHOICE EVERY TIME”
From start to finish, everything is handled with care and attention, and nothing ever feels like too much trouble. As a solo traveller, I appreciate the consistency- while there is a supplement, the quality of accommodation is never compromised. The escorted tours suit me perfectly, with excellent hotels, knowledgeable guides and the flexibility to opt in or out of the daily programme. With a relaxed pace and time to properly enjoy each destination, it all adds up to a far better experience. While they may be a little more than some group holidays, the smaller, friendly groups and overall quality make it well worth it.

“WONDERFUL TREK IN NEPAL AND VISIT TO TIGER RESERVE”
From our very first phone call, The Ultimate Travel Company provided excellent service. We shared our ideas and they came back with a proposal that included everything we wanted – then improved it with thoughtful suggestions. We were especially impressed that our tailor-made holiday was competitively priced. Once on the ground, everything ran smoothly. We were met at each airport, stayed in fantastic hotels, and had a brilliant guide for our trek. A truly enjoyable and well-managed trip from start to finish.

“A TRIP OF A LIFETIME, PERFECTLY PLANNED”
Dear Claire, our trip was 100% amazing. We fell in love with Chile. I love how we were introduced to all of the different parts of the country. Our family was engaged in all of the fun from beginning to end. The lodges were just perfection. I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I really appreciate all you did to make our trip a trip of a lifetime.
