Mombasa - Tsavo East National Park
To start your safari adventure, our driver will pick you up from your hotel in Mombasa early in the morning at 6:30 am. We'll then proceed to Tsavo East National Park with a game drive en-route to our accommodation for lunch. This is followed by a comfortable siesta before setting out on another game drive in the late afternoon.
Tsavo East is known for excellent game viewing which includes lions, leopards, cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, servals, buffaloes, elephants and many more. We can also spot a variety of migratory and native birds. The birds are present between late October and early January and come from as far as Eastern and Western Europe. There are many fascinating aspects to observe, such as the Athi River flanked by stately Doum palms, near the Manyani gate, forms the Lugard Falls, a long stretch of rippling white water cataracts and a favorite haunt for sunbathing crocodiles.
After an exciting day, return to your accommodation for a delicious dinner and some relaxing sleep.

Day 2
Tsavo East National Park - Tsavo West National Park
Tsavo East National Park - Tsavo West National Park
After an exciting early morning game drive, we'll enjoy a full breakfast at our accommodation before we head to Tsavo West National Park. When we travel west, Tsavo shows us a different face. The landscape is much more hilly; numerous volcanic craters rise from the plains. Fields of lava remind us of long-ago eruptions. The fauna of Tsavo West is very rich, besides the Big Five, the park is home to further numerous species. Given the rich vegetation, the animals can be tricky to spot at times. This should not discourage you, but in fact, can make your safari experience even more exciting. The reward is worth the extra patience!
After a delicious lunch, we'll visit the park's rhino sanctuary where Tsavo’s growing population of endangered black rhinos is inching its way back from the chasm of extinction. Later, start out on a game drive where we see buffaloes, elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffes and many more species. As the sun sets, head back to our lodge for dinner and an overnight.
