Tour Highlights
7:00 am, You’re on safari so it’s an early rise as your Africa driver/guide comes by to pick you up in a private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep.
Hop in and we’ll start our adventure headed for Mombasa by the Likoni Ferry.
Then we’re onto the Mombasa-Nairobi Highway, known as the “Explorers’ Route”, as the sun breaks over the passing fields.
In just a few hours we’ll arrive at Tsavo East, its broad expanse and big open sky welcoming us.
We’ll visit various watering holes like Mudanda Rock and the Aruba Dam, where the wildlife gather to quench their thirst.
There will be plenty of time for animal viewing as well as lunch amidst this expansive natural setting.
In the afternoon we’ll set out for more game spotting, and you’ll find yourself getting into the rhythms of the safari life.
Late afternoon will bring on a glowing African sunset as we head to your safari lodge or tented camp for dinner and relaxation.
We’ll be up before dawn ready to enjoy the sunrise as the park comes alive with wildlife like waterbuck, gerenuk, buffalo, and of course, elephant.
Breakfast follows and then another game drive as you scout the savannah for more of the park’s wild inhabitants.
It’s a short drive to the rolling green hills of Tsavo West in contrast to the rugged terrain from where we’ve come.
This park holds all the big wildlife including rhinos.
We’ll visit the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary where these shy nocturnal creatures dwell.
The rhino is an endangered species, but this haven protects and nurtures them in the hopes of increasing their numbers.
We’ll spend our second safari evening at our Tsavo West accommodation.
It’s our final safari day so let’s rise early to pack in as much wildlife viewing as we can.
We’ll see the sun break over the park and one of its unexpected surprises: a lush palm-shaded oasis called Mzima Springs.
We’ve spent much of our safari in our 4 x 4 Jeep, here we’ll have the opportunity to climb out and explore by foot.
We can walk along the shores of the spring, looking for unique migratory birds and exotic fish.
We’ll come upon crocodiles here and hippos as well, thriving in the millions of gallons of freshwater that feeds the spring.
This is another kind of safari, peaceful and filled with nature’s colors.
We’ll enjoy lunch amidst these natural surroundings and dwell on all that we have experienced.
After lunch, we’ll hop into our 4 x 4 Jeep once more for a final game drive as we exit the park, heading back to the coast.
We should have you back at your Diani Beach or other resort in the late afternoon.
Red dusty plains, green rolling hills, savannahs, and springs, you’ve explored many rich environments and lots of wildlife.
We hope you had fun and we appreciate your patronage.
