The Journey

Sable antelope, elephants, Sheldrick Falls, ancient forest and panoramic Indian Ocean views — all just 30 minutes from Diani. This is a signature Almond Safaris experience — designed by Kenyans, delivered from our Diani Beach headquarters, with personal attention you won't find on big tour bus operators.

Based in Diani Beach means we live where you play. Your pickup, your guide, your itinerary — all arranged by a team 30 minutes from the Mombasa airport and direct neighbours to Shimba Hills and Ukunda Airport.
