Unique among our tours, this coastal-to-safari adventure begins in Kenyaβs beautiful second city β Mombasa. Known for its white-sand beaches and warm Indian Ocean, Mombasa offers a relaxed introduction to your African journey, blending tropical charm with vibrant Swahili culture and history.
This itinerary combines the serenity of the coast with the wild landscapes of inland Kenya. Youβll travel through some of the countryβs most diverse and wildlife-rich regions, from the vast red-earth plains of Tsavo to the breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli National Park.
These parks are teeming with life β elephants, lions, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, and countless bird species β thriving among riverine forests, rolling grasslands, and meandering rivers that define the heart of Kenyaβs wilderness.
This safari is designed as a personalized private experience. Youβll enjoy the services of a dedicated professional guide and private 4Γ4 safari vehicle throughout your journey. Your schedule and pace are tailored entirely to you β no shared vehicles or group constraints.
To suit your travel plans, the tour can be arranged in either direction: you may begin with beach relaxation in Mombasa before heading inland for adventure, or start with the thrilling wildlife encounters of the savanna and unwind by the coast at the end of your safari.
Rise early in Mombasa for your pick-up by your driver, from where youβll journey along the MombasaβNairobi highway toward Tsavo East National Park. Along the way, soak in the rural Kenyan countryside β lively villages, coconut farms, and waving locals offering a glimpse of authentic coast-to-savannah life.
Upon arriving at Bachuma Gate, your safari begins immediately as wildlife appear right from the entrance. Watch for elephants and giraffes wandering across the red-dusted plains, and keep your camera ready for the chance to spot predators on the prowl.
Arrive at your camp or lodge in time for a hearty lunch. Afterward, set out once more for an afternoon game drive β including a visit to the Aruba Dam, an oasis for wildlife especially vibrant during the dry season.

After the morning adventure, return to your camp or lodge for a hearty breakfast before departing for Tsavo West National Park.
