The journey

The perfect safari extension to a Mombasa or Diani beach holiday. Collected directly from your coastal resort, this smooth geographic loop sweeps through the red-earthed plains of Tsavo East, up into the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary for a night at the famous stilted Salt Lick Safari Lodge above its illuminated waterhole, and on to Amboseli for elephants beneath Mount Kilimanjaro—before returning to the coast aboard the Madaraka Express SGR train.
