Nurses Take Kenya & Zanzibar

June 17 - 25, 2027

9 DAYS & 8 NIGHTS

Journey Overview

Nine days, two destinations, and one journey from the highlands of Kenya to the turquoise shores of Zanzibar. In Nairobi, wild giraffes, lions, and rhinos live within sight of the city skyline, tea fields climb the cool green hills of Limuru, and a day left open lets the pace slow before the adventure continues. Then cross to the Swahili Coast. Wander the coral-stone lanes of Stone Town, meet the giant tortoises of Prison Island, and settle into a five-star retreat in Nungwi, where the days unfold around the clear reef of Mnemba Island, rescued sea turtles, a sunset dhow sail, and a farewell dinner shared with the people you traveled with.

Watch lions, rhinos, giraffes, and buffalo roam open grassland on a half-day game drive, with the Nairobi skyline rising in the distance.

Journey Highlights

Sail to a protected marine reserve to snorkel over coral reef in clear turquoise water, with colorful fish, a chance of sea turtles, and dolphin spotting along the way.

Walk the glossy green tea fields of the Limuru highlands, see how fresh leaf becomes a cup of tea, and enjoy a leisurely farm lunch on a historic estate.

Nairobi National Park

Mnemba Atoll

Kiambethu Tea Farm

Wander Stone Town’s carved doors and coral-stone lanes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site shaped by centuries of Indian Ocean trade and its history. Then take a short boat ride to Prison Island to meet its giant Aldabra tortoises.

Stone Town & Prison Island

Nungwi Mnarani Turtle Sanctuary
