This is the ideal safari and beach break if you are looking for an active family adventure that suits a wide age range. The properties in this itinerary have been chosen because they are especially child-friendly and there are lots of interesting daily activities to keep everyone engaged and happy. The Masai story-telling is a favourite, as are the special children's game drives. The holiday takes in the game-rich Masai Mara and the wide sandy beaches of Watamu, north of Mombasa.
