Day 1 — Discovering Tsavo East

6:30 AM – Pick-up from your hotel or private residence. 7:00 AM – Enjoy a light breakfast at a local restaurant before departing for Tsavo East National Park (approximately 120 km – 2 hours 30 minutes). Along the way we make a short stop for anyone wishing to use the restroom or take a break, and visit a local school, where you're welcome to donate school supplies or essential goods such as pencils, pens, flour and beans — a small gesture that makes this journey even more meaningful. 9:30 AM – Arrival at the park entrance; after a short break, we visit the Galana River, where you can admire impressive crocodiles in their natural habitat. 10:00 AM – Enter Tsavo East National Park. Your safari begins aboard our comfortable 4x4 jeep, with complimentary cold bottled water throughout, searching for the famous Big Five and many other fascinating animals. 1:00 PM – Arrival at the lodge or tented camp: check-in, room allocation and a delicious buffet lunch (drinks not included). 2:00–4:00 PM – Free time to relax; during the hottest hours wildlife usually rests in the shade, making it the perfect time to enjoy the lodge, the pool, or simply unwind. 4:00 PM – Afternoon game drive to spot animals more active later in the day, and any species missed in the morning. 7:00 PM – Return to the lodge to freshen up and relax. 8:00 PM – Dinner at the lodge; afterwards use the Wi-Fi, relax under the African night sky, or share stories from the day's adventure before bed.

Day 2 — Sunrise Safari and Return

5:00 AM – Wake-up call. 6:00 AM – Breakfast at the lodge. 6:30 AM – Check out and depart for your final morning game drive — early morning is one of the best times to observe wildlife, as many animals are still active before the heat of the day. 10:00 AM – Exit Tsavo East National Park (your park entry ticket is valid for 24 hours). We make short comfort stops during the return journey if needed. 1:00 PM – Arrival back at your hotel or private residence.
