Overview

About this tour

Two Tsavos and then the ocean. You start in Tsavo East, where the elephants are stained rust red from the dust they throw over themselves and where the man-eaters of 1898 earned the park its reputation. Tsavo West follows and is a different place entirely: greener, more broken country, with the rhino sanctuary and Mzima Springs, where water filtered through volcanic rock runs clear enough to watch hippo from an underwater viewing chamber.

From Mtito Andei you take the train down to the coast and swap the bush for the beach, with two full days of nothing scheduled in Mombasa or Diani before the return to Nairobi. Six days is enough to cover two very different parks and still get real time by the sea, which is why this one works for families who want the safari to finish slowly rather than end on a long drive. Park fees, all meals, drinking water and transfers are included.

Day by day

Detailed itinerary

Your Rumaa Tours guide meets you at the airport or your hotel for breakfast and a full briefing on the programme. You then set off southeast for Tsavo East, one of the largest parks in Kenya and the one known for its big elephant herds and for the lions that halted the railway in 1898. You arrive at the lodge in time for lunch, with an afternoon game drive to follow. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.

A last game drive in Tsavo East this morning, then the crossing into Tsavo West, arriving at the lodge for lunch. The afternoon goes to the rhino sanctuary, which protects a black rhino population inside a fenced section of the park. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.

Early breakfast and a morning game drive taking in Mzima Springs, where water surfaces after filtering down through the lava flows off the Chyulu Hills; the underwater chamber puts you at eye level with hippo and shoals of barbel. Afterwards you drive to Mtito Andei station for the train to Mombasa. Our representative meets you on arrival and transfers you to your hotel.

A free day with nothing on the schedule: the beach, the hotel, and your own pace. Snorkelling, dhow trips, kite surfing and excursions into Mombasa old town can all be arranged locally at additional cost.

A second free day. If you would rather see something than lie still, Haller Park, Fort Jesus and the Wasini Island dhow trip out to Kisite Marine Park are all within reach and can be booked through your hotel.

The last day flexes around your flight. There are morning and afternoon options back to Nairobi, or you can add a night in the city before you fly. Let us know what suits and we will set it up.
