Tsavo East 1 Day Safari, Beach To Beach In 4wd Jeep

Posted By : mariesE8213SH
We had already booked the safari online from home before our 12-day vacation. Due to the relatively short duration of the vacation, we decided to only do a 1-day safari tour. After all, we wanted to relax in our hotel and on the beach in Diani Beach. We were actually worried that this would be too short to be able to observe almost all of these beautiful animals.
First of all, we had a very nice contact with Martha, who answered all our questions about booking the safari, processing payments and also the exact daily schedule with our guide Henry. All of this was completely uncomplicated and always very friendly via email. Payment by credit card via Pesapal was also done quickly.
On March 13th, we were picked up by Henry at the hotel at 4 a.m. sharp. He greeted us very friendly and so warmly that we immediately knew that we were in good hands with him.
After about 2 hours of driving, we took a short coffee break at a rest stop, also for the necessary toilet. Then we had about 30 minutes to drive to Tsavo East. We could hardly wait to finally arrive.
When we finally drove through the gate, it didn't take very long before we were actually able to see a family of elephants at a watering hole!
The excitement was great and continued later on, as we saw several herds of giraffes and zebras, antelopes, wildebeests, ostriches and many other birds.
The highlight, however, were two lionesses with cubs who had retreated under a bush to protect themselves from the scorching sun.
Almost all of the animals could be observed up close.
Henry had two binoculars ready for us for animals further away.
Everything was very well organized and you don't need to take anything with you except suitable clothing. Even drinking water is provided.
Our dear Henry explained a lot to us about the animals and their way of life.
No questions were left unanswered.
But then we got hungry and headed for a lodge.
The lunch buffet was very plentiful and delicious, the break was really good.
After another short game drive, our guide finally brought us safely back to our hotel. That was a really wonderful day on safari that we will definitely not forget.
Our friend Henry will also have fond memories of it and we would like to say a big thank you to Martha too!

We came to Kenya for vacation and relax holiday at diani beach, therefore we decided to only book a one-day safari to get a taste of the Safari life. And it was the best decision we made! The booking was very easy and uncomplicated, as well as the payment process. We got instructions and the drivers number beforehand in Case of emergeny. We left really early in the morning at 4 am and therefore we were also the first people arriving at Tsavo East. We saw everything we wanted to see and the very nice and friendly driver Henry gave us enough time to take pictures. He explained everything nicely and answered all our questions. The lunch buffet at the lodge was also really great and had a big variety to chose from. After lunch we had another game drive and left the park just in time, so that we werd back at our hotel at around 6.30 pm as planned. All in all i can totally recommend this safari trip to all people who want to dip into the Wildlife of Kenya.

The communication before the safari was quick and clear. We were promptly picked up at the agreed time from our hotel in Diani Beach and we started a 3-hour drive to the Tsavo East. The driver/guide had a sturdy 4wd vehicle and drove safely. You can never control which animals you can see, but we did manage to see quite a lot even during the 3-4h we spent driving in Tsavo East. He really made an effort to get closer to the animals and was very flexible when we wanted to take longer to take pictures. There was also lunch included in the price, however drinks were not included, so take come cash with you. This was a long day and I appreciated how the guide/driver was always alert and in a good mood.

There are two things I would improve. It would've been nice if a small breakfast box would be offered. Because we left at 5 a.m., we didn't have a chance to eat anything. There was a possibility to buy some food/drinks at a store where we stopped right before the Tsavo East, but it would've been nice if we could have some sandwiches and water during the 3h drive. The second thing is that there was also a short stop right before the national park gates where the driver/guide let somebody into our car under pretence that he needs to raise the roof and then this person tried to sell us safari hats and some guidebook about the park. Really didn't appreciate being stuck in a car where somebody wanted to sell me something I didn't want.

Magic day with Abdu who drove us around, he was an excellent and experienced guide who told us a lot about all the animals we saw. Very good food at Ashnil! We should have stayed longer :)

from start to end, we had an excellent experience with Natural World Safaris. Martha at the Diani office was excellent - so friendly and informative - the trip itself was fantastic and Adam (driver guide) was superb. I would
definitely book again if we return and have more time for a longer safari around Kenya. I have been on many safaris in Kenya and I was a expedition leader and safari guide in my previous career for more than ten years - these guys know what they are going and we highly recommend them.

Very interesting trip with Dominique, a good driver and guide who knew where to find animals. Lunch at the lodge was very good. Worth doing 2 days at least
