Before sun even
rises you are taken from your
hotel for a drive along the
Mombasa-Nairobi highway. The
highway follows very closely the
rail line to Nairobi. There is a
lot of history in this area, and
you will just go flying by it
for 140 Kilometers. Tsavo East
National Park will be entered
via the Bachuma Gate. This will
start your game viewing, for
wildlife is abundant in the
park. Lunch will be at Voi
Safari Lodge. After lunch you
will return to your game
viewing. Wildlife in the park
include the "red" elephants,
lions, buffalos, giraffes,
zebras and many other plains
animals. When you finish your
game viewing in the afternoon
you will be returned to your
hotel in Mombasa in the early
evening. For a quick view of
African wildlife this is the one
to go on. Plenty of photo
opportunities, good food, and
excellent guides. Well worth the
time, when you don't have much
time.
