Overview

Red Earth & Mountain Horizons combines two contrasting safari landscapes in a compact three-day journey from the Kenya coast. In Tsavo East, explore red-earth plains, acacia bushland and open savannah, with opportunities to search for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras and antelopes. Continue to Amboseli, where open grasslands and seasonal wetlands create a different setting for wildlife viewing. Elephants are a particular highlight, while Mount Kilimanjaro may provide a striking backdrop when skies are clear. Travel in your own private 4×4 Safari Land Cruiser with a professional English-speaking driver-guide. Your scheduled game drives are not shared with unrelated travellers, and the pace can be adapted within the itinerary, park regulations and daily conditions. Choose budget, midrange or luxury accommodation, with one night in the Tsavo East area and one night in the Amboseli area. Your personalised quotation will confirm the selected properties, locations, room categories and meal plans. Begin from Mombasa, Diani Beach, Watamu or Malindi. Mombasa pick-up and drop-off are included, while transfers involving Diani Beach, Watamu or Malindi can be arranged at an additional cost. This safari suits couples, families, and first-time visitors seeking a private, compact introduction to two of Kenya’s iconic parks, with an understanding that it involves substantial road travel.
