Mombasa to Tsavo East
Your safari begins early with a hotel pick-up as you head toward Tsavo East National Park, one of Kenya’s largest and most iconic wildlife destinations. Passing through the park gates, the scenery opens into vast red-soil plains dotted with acacia trees and views of the distant Yatta Plateau. Your first game drive takes you across the open savannah in search of elephants, lions, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, and various antelopes. Morning offers ideal wildlife activity, and your guide leads you through prime viewing areas, including the well-known Aruba Dam, where animals gather to drink. After an exciting morning, you proceed to your lodge or camp for lunch and a short rest. In the afternoon, you head out for another game drive, exploring new routes as temperatures cool and animals become more active. You return to the lodge in the early evening for dinner, relaxation, and an overnight stay surrounded by the sounds of the wilderness.
