TWO-DAY DIANI BEACH TO TSAVO EAST –
FAST BREAK SAFARI
An Easy Trip from Ocean to Elephants
Starting from/returning to your Diani Beach or other coastal resort.
We’ll pick you up in style – your own private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep.
- Diani Beach
- Tsavo East
Here’s an easy way to get a quick taste of the safari experience – hop aboard one of our private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeeps for the quick trip to renowned Tsavo East National Park. In little more than two hours from Diani Beach, we’ll have you on the rugged Tsavo plains exploring for elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, and much more.
The lions here are unique – the males have short manes – but they’ve got a ferocious history. Just ask your guide.
For two days we’ll take you on game drives through the famous park tracking for cheetah, African wildcat, jackal, giraffe, zebra, monkey, and innumerable numbers of birdlife.
So put on your safari outfit and let’s go exploring!
What’s Cool About Tsavo East?
Red elephants. There are lots of big elephants here and they like to roll about in the red-oxide soil, giving themselves a rosy, dusty coating. You’re certain to admire their “makeover”.
The waterholes at Tsavo are a rewarding stop for both wildlife and humans. The reserves’ animals replenish themselves at these dependable oases. For safari-goers, they’re a never-ending source of game spotting. We’ll visit Mudanda Rock, an outcropping poised over a natural dam where elephants gather in great numbers. Aruba Dam also attracts large numbers of the park’s thirsty population.

Day 1
Diani Beach – Tsavo East National Park
2 ½ Hour Drive
Meals: Lunch & Dinner
7:00 am – It’s safari time and that means an early rise for more hours spent at the park. Your Africa Kenya Safaris driver/guide will be at your hotel or resort for the pre-dawn pickup. Hop into your private 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Jeep for the pretty journey to the park on the Nairobi-Mombasa highway. We’ll enjoy the African sunrise breaking over the passing fields en route to the reserve.
Soon the great, rugged plains of Tsavo East will stretch out before you with their treasures of elephant, lion, buffalo, cheetah, giraffe, zebra, antelope, and many other species.
We’ll enjoy a lunch break at your safari lodge or tented camp and then head out for more game-driving action. The sunsets here can be stunning and you’ll appreciate the changing light and cooler air as we near evening.
Now it’s time for dinner and relaxation at your Tsavo East accommodation. Rest up for your second day on safari.
Day 2
Tsavo East – Diani Beach
2 ½ Hour Drive
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
We’ll be up with the sun – the best time to view the natural world coming alive with the new day. This early game drive will give us opportunities to view the wildlife in a cool, quiet setting.
Then we’ll head back for a well-earned breakfast amidst the colors and sounds of the park’s early morning.
We’ll head out again for more animal sightings – lion, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, and hundreds of bird species.
Lunch will be at a rustic restaurant with wide vistas of the great park.
A final game drive will cap off our safari adventure before we head back on the highway to return to the coast and Diani Beach.
It’s been two very full days of wild animal spotting over the plains and savannahs of Tsavo East National Park. Now that you’ve had a taste of the safari life we hope we can introduce you to more of Kenya’s awesome national parks. On behalf of African Kenya Safaris, a big thanks to you!
