About this tour

Diani is regularly named one of Africa's best beaches: miles of white coral sand, palm trees and calm, turquoise water protected by an offshore reef. It's the perfect way to unwind after a safari, or a short break on its own.

This package takes care of everything from Nairobi. Ride the Madaraka Express train to the coast — a comfortable five-hour trip that often passes wildlife in Tsavo — and our driver will meet you in Mombasa for the transfer to Diani. You then have two nights full board at a beachfront resort such as Leopard Beach Resort or similar.

Fill your days with as much or as little as you like: swim, snorkel, try kitesurfing, visit the Colobus Conservation centre, or add our dhow trip to Wasini Island and the Kisite marine park to swim with dolphins. Prices are lower outside the peak Christmas and Easter seasons.
