Luxus-Mobilsafari Chyulu Hills und Tsavo

After breakfast at the camp, you and your guides will set out on a day game viewing adventure with a picnic lunch.

Today you will also get a chance to explore the lava caves. Upon returning from this you will find hot water for showers and a campfire to sit around and enjoy the views and listen to some campfire stories whilst dinner is being prepared.

After this you may like to go on a night drive to try to find some of the wonderful nocturnal species and other game in the hills.

Today’s early morning adventure we suggest a trip with a picnic lunch up to the top of the Chyulu Hills ridge line, this is around 7000 ft so take some warm clothes.

There are spectacular mist fed indigenous forests and stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro to the South and Tsavo to the East.

After lunch climb up the magnificent volcanic crater and back to camp for hot showers and drinks by the camp fire.

This day you may like to do some slightly different activities also available in the Chyulu Hills:

• Horse Riding, get close to giraffe and other plains game on horseback.
• A scenic flight to see the beautiful Chyulu Hills from the air.
• The Big Life Foundation HQ is about 1.5 hours away. This very informative visit will give you an insight into the conservation world and all of its challenges. While you are here it is also a possibility to go with the tracker dogs on an exercise and learn how these amazing animals help catch and deter poachers.
• Visit the Maasai tribe in one of their traditional homesteads. It is fascinating to see these people who are still holding to so many of their traditions in this quickly changing world.This would be a drive of about one and a half hours each way.

We would highly recommend as an add on to the Chyulu experience a 2 night stay at Ithumba Elephant Reintegration Unit in Tsavo East National Park. Approximately a three hour drive away. We would takeover the Ithumba camp exclusively. It is a very charming, beautifully built rustic camp.

This is an incredible project that has successfully been reintroducing orphaned elephants back into the wild for many years. Tsavo is the largest and one of the oldest established parks in Kenya.

Game drives within the unique Northern Area of Tsavo, time to relax in the beautiful camp, enjoying the resident wildlife, excursions to the Tiva river and Yatta Plateau, guided hike up Ithumba Mountain, guided walks along the Tiva river and sundowners.

Depart after breakfast to your next destination with memories for a life time!
