Tsavo East is one of Africa's largest and most storied wildlife sanctuaries, and this two-day escape puts you right at its heart. The park's legendary red elephants, dusted terracotta by the iron-rich volcanic soil, are unlike anything you will see anywhere else on the continent. Africompass will whisk you from Nairobi through sweeping savannah landscapes to the iconic Aruba Dam, a natural gathering point for elephants, buffaloes, zebras, and a remarkable cast of birdlife. Staying at the beautifully situated Ashnil Aruba Lodge, you will wake to panoramic plains views, unwind to the sounds of the bush at night, and depart with memories that will last a lifetime.
Your adventure will begin with an early morning departure from Nairobi, heading south-east through Kenya's dramatic hinterland before entering Tsavo East National Park through the Voi Gate. An afternoon game drive will take you through the park's expansive red-ochre plains, past the celebrated Aruba Dam, where the famous red-dusted elephants, zebras, buffaloes, and impalas are frequently spotted against a backdrop of volcanic hills and golden savannah. As the sun dips below the horizon and colours wash across the sky, you will return to Ashnil Aruba Lodge for a leisurely dinner and a restful evening surrounded by the tranquil sounds of the African bush.
After an early breakfast, you will check out of Ashnil Aruba Lodge and set off on a final morning game drive through the park, taking advantage of the cool dawn hours when wildlife is at its most active. The drive will offer fresh sightings and a wonderful last impression of Tsavo's wild beauty before you collect your packed lunch and begin the scenic journey onward to the Kenyan coast. You will arrive in Mombasa during the afternoon, bringing a remarkable two-day safari to a memorable close.
