Tips

To extend your stay, consider adding a few days after the training to explore the Great Rift Valley or go on a safari in Maasai Mara. If you need to shorten the trip, you can fly on a direct (though pricier) route to save transit time, or opt for budget hostels instead of a mid‑range hotel, which could reduce accommodation costs by up to 40 %.
