Kenya works year-round, but your safari and beach experience can feel different depending on conditions.
For a classic safari (Nairobi + Maasai Mara), 4–6 days works. For safari + Rift Valley, plan 7–10 days. For safari + coast, 10–14+ days is ideal.
Nairobi → Maasai Mara → (optional Naivasha or Amboseli) → coast (Diani or Watamu) for a relaxed finish.
Most travelers do safari first, then finish with beach days to rest and enjoy the coast.
