Choose to visit Tsavo East National Park, known for its unique short-maned lions, leopards, cheetah, and other big game. Or, you can explore sister park, Tsavo West National Park, where you’ll also find rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, and plenty of surprises.
Either way, your Africa safari will then journey on to Amboseli Park, seated near the base of towering and photogenic Mt. Kilimanjaro. It’s in this setting you’ll be treated to families of elephants, meandering to and fro from their favorite watering holes.
So leave the beach behind – for just a few days – and join us from your Diani or other south coast resort for this special safari in Kenya.
7:00 am Let’s be up before the sun to pack in as much safari action as possible. Your Africa Kenya Safaris driver/guide will come by your resort with a private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep for your journey. You’ll head to Mombasa via the Likoni Ferry and then travel on the Mombasa-Nairobi highway as the African sunrise lights up the passing fields and homesteads. In about three hours we’ll reach the park’s gate, and we can stop for refreshments if you wish. Now it’s time to start our game drives across the vast, rugged terrain of Tsavo East, Kenya’s largest park. We’ll be tracking for lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and so many others. We’ll take a lunch break and then head out for more game-driving fun. You set the pace for your safari. Want more relaxation time? Just tell your guide and he’ll be happy to oblige.
It’s safari time and that means an early rise to watch the park come alive with light and wildlife. We’ll drive over to the park’s most unusual attraction: Mzima Springs. The greenery here contrasts nicely with the more rugged terrain of the park. We’ll also be able to explore on foot, walking gently along the palm-shrouded banks as we spot colorful fish, migratory birds, hippos, and crocodiles in this surprisingly green oasis. Now it’s time to head to Amboseli Park.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch Let’s get up early and we might see the snow-capped summit of Kilimanjaro in the dawn’s light. We’ll enjoy breakfast in this wonderful setting and then set out on another game drive through the park looking for whichever wildlife we haven’t yet spotted on our journey. And now it’s time to head back to the Kenya coast and Diani Beach. You’ve seen the best of the big Tsavo parks with their immense stretches of terrain and wildlife surprises. And you’ve experienced the picture-postcard beauty of Amboseli. Now you’re heading back to the prettiest beaches in the world. We at Africa Kenya Safaris hope you enjoyed it all. Please reach out to us for your next safari adventure – thank you! This new high-speed train is built for air-conditioned comfort with soft reclining seats. Your large picture windows will provide colorful vistas of Tsavo East’s great plains and its wildlife.
