★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 23 reviews · 2 days · from $600

Review of a private two-day Salt Lick safari from Mombasa or Diani, with wildlife drives, lodge views, meals, and practical booking advice.

“This was such an amazing experience. We saw a lot of animals, the Salt Lick Safari Lodge is an amazing place with unbelievable views. Our tourguide and driver, Benjamin, made sure that we had the best experience as possible on the 2 days. His passion towards wildlife, knowledge and great personality really made this trip even more remarkable. He spotted animals before everyone else and educated us on how the animals behave and the reasons behind it. We were lucky on our trip to see a lot of action. The organiser was very good at communicating with me before and during the trip and gave us the best solutions.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 21 reviews · 8 - 10 hours · from $270Best value

Review of the Shimba Hills safari and Sheldrick Falls hike, with wildlife, lunch, swimming, price advice, fitness tips, and practical details.

“We had a wonderful trip to Shimba Hills with John as our guide, it was a truly special experience. Although it rained heavily at times, that actually made the tour even more memorable. The hike to Sheldrick Falls was an absolute highlight despite (or even because of) the rain. Walking through the jungle, surrounded by the sound of rain and nature, was a refreshing and one of a kind experience. Once we reached the waterfall, the view was simply breathtaking. The combination of tropical scenery and cascading water created a magical atmosphere. I’m really glad we went on this trip, it was a genuine nature adventure. I can highly recommend…”
