Overview
The 5 Days Diani Beach Holiday is a 5-day safari through Diani Beach, Kenyan Coast, designed and operated by Saringi Tours. Based in Nairobi and women-led, Saringi has been building private African itineraries since 2018. This route takes in Diani, with each day sequenced to put you in the right place at the right time for wildlife.
Bush and beach is one of East Africa's most satisfying combinations, and this 5-day itinerary gets the balance right: proper wildlife days in prime game country, then a coastal or island stay to wind down. Transfers, accommodation, and logistics are all managed by the Saringi team in Nairobi. Dates, lodge category, and duration can be adjusted to suit your schedule.

Day-by-Day Itinerary
Day 1Nairobi – Mombasa – Diani Beach
Fly from Nairobi to Mombasa (1 hr) and transfer south across the Likoni Ferry to the stunning Diani Beach. Check in to your beachfront resort, change into your swimwear, and feel the warm Indian Ocean sand beneath your feet. Afternoon at leisure on the beach. Sunset cocktails with the ocean breeze.
Day 2Diani Beach – Full Day at Leisure
A full day to settle into beach life. Swim in the turquoise waters, snorkel from the beach over the reef, or hire a kayak and paddle out to the sand bar.
