Swap the beach for the bush for a day: a full-day game drive in Tsavo East, Kenya’s largest park, from your coast hotel.
Overview
A Tsavo East day trip is the easiest way to add a real safari to a beach holiday on the Kenyan coast. Tsavo East is Kenya’s largest national park, famous for elephants coloured red by the park’s volcanic soil, and its Buchuma gate is about 2.5 hours from Mombasa.
We collect you early from your hotel in Diani, Mombasa or the north coast, spend the whole day on game drives with a lunch stop in the park, and bring you back for dinner. It is an ideal taster for guests who want to see elephants, lions and giraffes without leaving the beach for long.
Best for: Day trip / beach excursion. Popular with: German, Italian, Swiss, Austrian and British beach holidaymakers on the Kenyan coast. Best time: Year-round.
Price is from USD 230 per adult sharing; the final cost depends on season, accommodation and group size.
