There's so much you can do in two weeks you wouldn't believe it. Your travel agent might be able to plan a two week itinerary for you while you are still at home then you can propose changes to it. You can do a 4 day masa mara trip which is rather fantastic with game drives early in the morning and evenings, with options of taking hot air baloon safaris as well. You mentioned L.Naivasha which you can do a 3-day L.Naivasha- Hell's gate N.park -L. Nakuru. From there on you can head to Samburu and come dpwn through the Mt. Kenya route. Honestly th decision is all yours as there's a lot to see in forms of Flora and Fauna. Culture wise it would be great to visit the Kenya National museum and snake park, or do a Karen Blixen Museum ( Out of Africa fame) tour and to cap it all you might want want to go to the Coast or finish it with great game meat feasts at The Carnivore. All the best and do enjoy our great country.

Dont linger around, DONT talk to strangers! I went to the main street of nairobi in the daytime, and was kidnapped... blindfolded and taken to a cafe called ARTURO... I was harassed at "gunpoint" by "police" for about an hour before being released, after they suspected me of being a foreign spy, and demanding I hand over my fake money for checking at a local police station?!!!! Wow.... daylight in a busy street! There is a good gift shop in the main street too... a large place.. and my friend Joyce works there.. Tell her Edward in Australia says hi... and she might give u a good price!!! Samburu is great... didnt go to masaii mara though sorry. Lake naivasha is a waste of time, nothing to see there at all...saw 1 animal lurking in the bushes and that was it....!!! Lake Nakuru is wonderful too but cant quite remember where it is!!! Edward.

well lets see i live there and one thing i would advice u is to take anti-malarial tablets because its a tropical country there are bound to be mosquitoes.the mara and the safaris are super especiall if u love wildlife there will be plenty of them to see.make sure u get curios from the maasai because they make them very colourful and stylish.
try out the different local cuisines and visit other places as u know kenya has over 30 different tribes and that means there are over 30 different types of cultures and cuisines)
check out the night life also if u love beer the local beer is super u cant go wromg with that.
gosh there is so much to kenya i cant even begin to say.hope u have a great time and try to see as much as possible u will definetely always want to come back

its best to contact your local travel advisor to get the best deals, mombasa and masai mara are a must
