Kiran,

you already got very good advice. I agree that you should visit
only two places in the short time of 8 days.

One more hint: have a look at http://www.michna.com/kenya.htm .
That's a self-drive safari plan, but it contains useful
information about driving times, prices, as well as a check list
on what to bring.
