DAY BY DAY
Starts From/Returns to Watamu, Malindi beach resorts. We’ll pick you up from your hotel or resort.
Think about it – just a few hours from the beach, real-life safari adventures are waiting for you! Just hop into one of our new 4 x 4 Jeeps and we’ll take off for the wildlife at Tsavo East National Park. Then, we’ll add to the fun with a quick hop over to nearby Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary for a different safari experience in this smaller but densely populated park. This short 2-day safari is perfect for a quick, last-minute getaway.
Tsavo East is big – Kenya’s largest park and home to lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, giraffe and dozens of other animals. Interested in colourful birds? The park offers over 500 species like the lovebird and sacred ibis. We’ll visit several watering holes known for their abundance of wildlife and watch as the animals gather to quench their thirst.
Though Taita Hills is small, it is a busy place, filled with over 50 species of large wildlife. The sanctuary is greener and more dramatic than Tsavo East, with frequent sighting of lion and elephant. We’ll spend the night here at your choice of the Sarova Taita Hills Lodge or Salt Lick Safari Lodge.
For your 2-day Tsavo East/Taita Hills journey you’ll be guided, hosted and looked after by your own experienced driver/guide.
Transportation to the park and game viewing will be in a private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep – this vehicle is the safari standard with its higher seating and rugged all-wheel drive.
