Beach to Beach Kenya Safari Experience
2 Days Tsavo East & Taita Hills / Salt Lick Safari
This safari is perfect for travelers who want to leave the beach for a moment and step into the wild — without losing comfort or time.
The 2 days Tsavo East & Taita Hills Salt Lick safari combines the vast open wilderness of Tsavo East National Park with the scenic beauty of Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, home to the iconic Sarova Salt Lick Game Lodge.
From red elephants and lions in Tsavo East to watching wildlife gather beneath your lodge at night in Taita Hills, this short safari delivers a real Kenya wildlife experience directly from the coast.
It begins and ends at the beach — making it one of the most popular safari extensions from Mombasa, Diani, Watamu, and Malindi.
The Safari Experience
This journey takes you from the warm Indian Ocean coastline into the heart of Kenya’s wilderness.
Tsavo East offers wide open plains, red-dust landscapes, and classic African safari scenery.
Taita Hills feels different — greener, quieter, and more intimate, with excellent wildlife viewing around waterholes and lodge viewpoints.
The experience is short, but it feels surprisingly complete.
