4 Days Tsavo East-Amboseli & Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctaury

Day 1:Mombasa-Tsavo East National Park

Meal Plan: Lunch, Dinner
The safari begins with a pickup at your beach hotel or resort. We’ll take the Mombasa – Nairobi Highway, viewing farmlands and Kenya countryside along the way.

The route to Tsavo East is fairly short and upon reaching the park, we’ll stop for refreshments before heading out on our first game drive. You’ll feel the safari excitement as we rumble over the broad grasslands looking for the larger and smaller wildlife like eland, impala, giraffe, and zebra.
After our first taste of this legendary park, we’ll break for lunch and fortify ourselves for more great game viewing during the afternoon. The pace will be relaxed – there will be plenty of time to discover the big game during our 3-day safari.
As we track for the wildlife all about us in this massive park, we’ll also get to witness one of Africa’s blazing sunsets.

Overnight at your Tsavo east safari lodge/ tented camp.

Day 2: Tsavo East to Amboseli National Park

Meal Plan: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

We’ll arise early on our first safari morning to take full advantage of the dawning light and emerging animal life. We’ll enjoy breakfast and then a quick game drive as we exit Tsavo East. We’re now bound for Amboseli.
We’ll stop for some breaks on our trek to this very popular park. The imposing form of Mt Kilimanjaro will be our beacon guiding us to the park entrance. Arriving, we’ll freshen up before embarking on our first game drive at the foot of the iconic mountain.
Compared to Tsavo East, Amboseli is small and its compact size has the advantage of affording us more opportunities to see the big game. However, you can’t miss the elephants at this reserve. They are in such abundance you’re guaranteed sightings!
And get your “Big Five” checklist out – if you missed any of them at Tsavo East, you just may spot them here.

Day 3:Amboseli/Kilimanjaro to Taita Hills Sanctaury

Meal Plan: Breakfast, Lunch
Following an early morning game drive and breakfast, depart heading towards Taita Hills. Arrive in time for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive in the sanctuary, returning to the lodge as the sun sets.
After dinner, set out on a night game drive, this time with an opportunity to view nocturnal wildlife in their natural habitat.
Salt Lick Game Lodge is located in the heart of the private sanctuary, which is adjacent to Tsavo West National Park. All rooms are built in two-story blocks from a central pod and linked together by elevated platforms that overlook a salt lick and a small waterhole, which is floodlit at night.
Rooms are spacious and have all the necessary modern conveniences. The restaurant, bar and main balconies have views over the waterhole and salt lick, which are constantly in use by the park’s wildlife.
There is also an underground bunker with ground-level windows, allowing for unbelievably close but safe encounters.

Overnight
In the evening, dinner will be served at Saltlick Lodge/Taita Hills Resort.

Day 4:Taita Hills Sanctuary to Diani/Mombasa Beach Hotels

We’ll be up for a pre-breakfast game drive to watch the wildlife come awake and enjoy the early morning light over the sanctuary’s green hills.
After breakfast at our lodge, we’ll venture out for one more game drive in this compact but densely populated reserve. This will give us opportunities to view more of our favorite animals and perhaps to spot others for the first time.
Taking a last look at Taita Hills, we’ll depart the reserve with photos and memories of our safari adventure.
Drop off
We’ll head out for the Kenya Coast on the Nairobi Mombasa Road and enjoy a rest stop for lunch on the way.
By late afternoon or early evening, we’ll have you back at your hotel or beach resort.
