This day trip is built for travellers on a beach holiday in Mombasa, Diani, Nyali, Bamburi or Malindi who want a safari day without repacking, and for cruise passengers with a long port day. You are collected early, spend the day inside the park, and are back at your hotel that evening.<\/p>\n<h3>What the day looks like<\/h3>\n<p>After an early pickup and the drive to the Sala or Buchuma gate, the morning is spent game viewing across Tsavo East&#8217;s open, red-earth plains \u2014 look for elephant tinted rust-red by the soil, buffalo, giraffe and, with good fortune, lion. Around midday you stop at a lodge inside the park for a hot lunch, then continue with an afternoon drive toward the Galana River and, conditions allowing, Lugard Falls, before the drive back to the coast.<\/p>\n<h3>Who this suits<\/h3>\n<p>Families and couples on a coastal stay who want one safari day rather than a multi-day trip, and cruise passengers whose port window allows a full day ashore. The drive is a genuine early start and a late finish, so it is a full day rather than a half-day outing.<\/p>\n<h3>Good to know<\/h3>\n<p>The price shown is a guide per person for a day trip in a shared 4&#215;4, including park fees, driver-guide and lunch. A private vehicle, a different pickup point, or an earlier\/later start can all be arranged and are quoted separately. Wildlife is wild and sightings are never guaranteed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A one-day safari into Tsavo East from the Mombasa coast, with morning and afternoon game drives and a lodge lunch, back at your hotel by evening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2846,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"skt_destination":[17],"skt_tour_type":[43],"skt_accommodation":[],"skt_service_type":[],"skt_difficulty":[74],"skt_region":[66],"skt_activity_type":[],"skt_duration":[77],"class_list":["post-2863","skt_tour","type-skt_tour","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","skt_destination-tsavo-east","skt_tour_type-wildlife-safari","skt_difficulty-easy","skt_region-kenya-coast","skt_duration-day-trip"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_tour\/2863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_tour"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/skt_tour"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"skt_destination","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_destination?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_tour_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_tour_type?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_accommodation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_accommodation?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_service_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_service_type?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_difficulty","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_difficulty?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_region?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_activity_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_activity_type?post=2863"},{"taxonomy":"skt_duration","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/boomtrailtours.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/skt_duration?post=2863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
