Experience the best of Kenya on this unforgettable 12-night adventure that combines the tranquillity of the coast with the thrill of the safari. Begin and end your journey with time to unwind on the white-sand beaches of Mombasa, staying at Swahili Beach Resort, with a four-day safari through Tsavo East, Amboseli, and Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary in between.
Your 4-day safari itinerary begins with an early morning pick-up from Swahili Beach Resort, travelling inland passing scenes of local life before entering Tsavo East National Park, where your first game drive unfolds across the sweeping savannahs, home to elephants, giraffe, zebra, and big cats. Arrive at Ashnil Aruba Lodge, offering a front-row seat to wildlife drawn to the water. After lunch, head out for an afternoon game drive before returning to enjoy dinner under the stars.
After breakfast, head for Amboseli National Park, passing through the legendary Tsavo region made famous by the “Man-Eaters of Tsavo.” On a clear day, you’ll catch your first glimpse of Mount Kilimanjaro arriving at Sentrim Amboseli Tented Camp, combining safari comfort with breathtaking views of Kilimanjaro. Enjoy lunch and an afternoon game drive across Amboseli’s open plains. Here, large elephant herds roam against the iconic mountain backdrop, alongside buffalo, cheetah, and a diverse array of birdlife.
Begin your day with an early morning game drive before travelling east to the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, continuing to Salt Lick Safari Lodge, one of Kenya’s most unique properties, perched on stilts above a busy waterhole. Your Waterhole Room offers 24-hour game viewing from the comfort of your bed or balcony. In the afternoon, explore the sanctuary’s rolling plains and acacia woodland on a game drive and catch sight of the elusive nocturnal animals like civet cats, bush babies, and genets come to life under the starlit sky.
Enjoy an early morning game drive, then after lunch, begin your journey back to Mombasa, arriving in the early evening at Swahili Beach Resort.
