Visual Itinerary
Meal Plan: Lunch, Dinner
The safari begins with a pickup at your beach hotel or at the Mombasa port. We’ll take the Mombasa – Nairobi Highway, viewing farmlands and Kenya countryside along the way.
As you pass through the gates of Tsavo East National Park, watch for the wildlife on the reserve’s rugged savannah, but especially keep an eye out for the great herds of elephants who like to roll in the red soil here. We’ll head over to Aruba Dam, a well-known watering hole. This man-made dam on the Voi River is both aesthetically pleasing and an attraction for the wildlife. Its life-giving waters are a big draw for the park’s animals.
The Kanderi swamp area is also a favorite spot for game and, of course, for us to watch that game. We will cross the park’s vast plains looking to sight eland, impala, giraffe and some of the 500 species of birds found here. Later in the afternoon we’ll exit the park and head to nearby Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary to begin exploring that beautiful reserve.
Overnight at Taita Hills Safari Resort or Salt Lick Safari lodge.
