5-Day Into Kenya's Coastal Circuit Tour

Enjoy a pre-breakfast safari in Tsavo East National Park. After breakfast, proceed to Amboseli National Park with a game drive en-route.
Amboseli National Park is famous for being the best place in the world to get close to wild elephants. Other attractions of the park include opportunities to meet the Maasai and visit a Maasai village. The park also has views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in Africa.
Amboseli was home to Echo, perhaps the most researched elephant in the world, and the subject of many books and documentaries. He was followed for almost four decades by American conservationist Dr. Cynthia Moss.
The park offers some of the best opportunities to see African wildlife because the vegetation is sparse due to the long, dry months. The protected area is home to African bush elephants, Cape buffaloes, impalas, lions, cheetahs and spotted hyenas. Dinner and your overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Breakfast is followed by an extensive game drive in Amboseli National Park before heading to Tsavo West National Park. Tsavo West has a variety of wildlife such as the Eastern black rhinoceros, hippopotamus, Cape buffalo, elephant, leopard, and lion. There are also other smaller animals that can be spotted such as the bush baby, hartebeest, lesser kudu, and Maasai giraffe.

Apart from wildlife, you will visit the Mzima Springs which is one of Tsavo's most popular wildlife attractions owing to its resident populations of hippo and Nile crocodile. Mzima's isolation makes both species dependent on its waters as other sources are too distant for them to reach by overland travel. The hippos also sustain an entire food chain. They browse the surrounding savannah by night and return to Mzima's pools by day, where their dung fertilizes the water. Fruiting trees such as the date, raffia palms, water berries, and figs grow beside the water.

Have an early breakfast and then check out of the lodge as you leave for the mid-morning game drive. Later, drive to Taita Hills Game Sanctuary. Upon entering the sanctuary, begin a game-viewing drive as you drive toward Taita Hills Game Lodge for lunch. Enjoy an afternoon safari game drive in Taita Hills Salt Lick Game Sanctuary followed by dinner and your overnight stay at the Salt Lick Lodge.

Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary is a privately owned wildlife sanctuary and national park in Kenya. It is located in Taita-Taveta county, approximately 220 kilometers from Mombasa. It hosts Cape buffalo, African bush elephant, leopard, lion, cheetah, Maasai giraffe, zebra, hartebeest, impala, waterbuck, Thomson's gazelle, lesser kudu, dik-dik, hyena, and other smaller animals including a diversity of birdlife.

Have an early morning game drive. Depart from the lodge at 8:00 am after breakfast. Enjoy en-route game viewing as we exit the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary.

The journey will then continue to Diani to arrive in good time for you to enjoy your beach holiday.
