2 Days Tsavo East from the Coast

The shortest safari that is still worth doing from the beach

  • Lodge
  • Tented camp

One night inland is enough to see Tsavo East properly — the red elephants, the Galana river, Lugard Falls and the Yatta plateau. You leave the coast after breakfast and are back on the beach by the following evening.

Trip highlights

  • Tsavo's famously red-dusted elephants
  • Aruba Dam, where game concentrates in the dry season
  • Lugard Falls and the Galana river crocodiles
  • The Yatta plateau, the longest lava flow in the world
  • Pick-up from any hotel between Mombasa, Diani and Watamu

Day by day

  1. Day 1
