Route
Day 1
Morning pick-up from your accommodation on the north or south coast and drive via Mombasa to the 100 km² Taita Hills protected area.
For lunch you reach the Sarova Salt Lick Lodge, fortify yourself with lunch and have time to look around and feel good.
In the afternoon we start the big game drive through the area and explore nature with the animal inhabitants. At sunset we return to our accommodation, Salt Lick Lodge. A lovely evening awaits us with dinner and watching the animals approach the watering holes.
Day 2
At daybreak after a quick cup of coffee/tea we set off for an early game so as not to miss the exciting active time of the predators. The hearty breakfast after the game leaves nothing to be desired.
We now continue our tour towards Tsavo East National Park. As soon as you get there, the next adventure begins! There is a lot to discover here in the so-called “Theater of the Wilderness”!
We are expected at Sentrim Tsavo Camp at lunchtime. Enjoy your meal and the wonderful authentic feel of the camp with a view of the waterhole!
The afternoon game drive will bring you even closer to the wild beauty of Tsavo East!
The evening at the bush camp will be unforgettable! You are in the middle of Africa, with unforgettable impressions of a night under the sparkling starry sky around the campfire!
Day 3
Once again we go on the popular early game hunt and roam the area in search of the wild animals. A last hearty breakfast and we head back.
We take a break for lunch, then continue to the coast to your accommodation.

Posted on Astrid BrücknerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our safari with Ali was absolutely perfect! Everything was superbly organized, and Ali was an incredibly interesting safari guide who told us all about the animals and the country. He also has a sixth sense for the best locations and even spotted lion cubs for us!Posted on anonymous anonymousTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an unforgettable dream trip to Kenya. The trip was planned by Manuela Zwenger, who provided us with excellent and thorough advice. She was always available and responded quickly and professionally to all our requests. We would plan and book another trip with her without hesitation. She also successfully arranged for us to have a German-speaking driver. Our driver was Katana, and he was an extremely important part of our trip. Katana picked us (a group of four) up directly at Mombasa airport and accompanied us throughout the entire journey. Our first destination was the Soroi Cheetah Lodge, where we stayed for three nights. It's a fantastic lodge with wonderful game drives. We don't know how Katana always spots the animals so easily, but we saw an incredible number of them, and he was able to provide us with a wealth of information about them. He also approached the animals with great respect. We witnessed situations where other vehicles drove into the bush to chase a cheetah. In our opinion, this is unacceptable and is probably also prohibited. Katana was completely different. We also saw many animals, but always respected them. The next lodge was the Tulia Amboseli Safari Camp. It's within sight of Kilimanjaro and has its own unique landscape. The proximity to Kilimanjaro is certainly one of the highlights. After two nights, we continued on to the Severin Safari Camp in Tsavo West. Another truly beautiful camp, with its own waterholes for the animals and, just like the Cheetah Lodge, excellent cuisine. The wildlife was once again incredibly diverse. After another two nights, we returned to Mombasa. Since we still had some time, Katana drove us around Mombasa and showed us a bit of the city before we headed back to the airport. All in all, it was a five-star-plus vacation for us. Manuela's planning was perfect (Chat GPD called it an outstandingly organized trip), and Katana's tour leadership left nothing to be desired. The Cheetah and Severin lodges were outstanding for us, and the view of Kilimanjaro from Tulia Lodge was particularly impressive. We highly recommend DAN Magical Tours and Manuela for planning and booking.Posted on Hendrik LauTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An absolutely fantastic safari. Top-notch. Thank you!Posted on The DuchisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had four incredible days! Pictures speak louder than words. THANK YOU Katana, thank you DAN Tours. We'll be back!Posted on Sven KampfertTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had two unforgettable days. We booked the safari with DAN Magical Tours from Germany and paid in advance. A German- and English-speaking guide drove us, shared many fascinating details about Kenya, and accompanied us safely and reliably. He made a very experienced impression on us – we were able to see many animals, sometimes even "before the others," because he somehow sensed where the animals were or which path they would take. We were also able to individually choose what we wanted to do. Fantastic! This allowed us to cater to the needs of our two children (8 & 10). DAN Magical also did a superb job organizing all the food and drinks. Thank you, we are happy to recommend you!Posted on Sonya STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic and unforgettable two-day trip to Tsavo East National Park. The online booking via email, telephone consultation, and payment method were all very professional and efficient. The tour with our driver, Ismael, was a dream. He was picked up perfectly on time, explained everything clearly, and is a superb driver. He spotted many animals for us and truly went the extra mile, sharing fascinating facts about them. The highlight was seeing a lion family up close at sunrise! An unforgettable moment! We highly recommend DAN Magical Tours and thank them for the two wonderful days.Posted on Marco BoschTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did a lot of research and comparisons beforehand. However, the communication with Manuela was so pleasant that we decided on DM Tours. And we weren't disappointed with the 4-day safari (Tsavo West/East and Amboseli), quite the opposite. James, our guide, was incredibly nice and friendly, had a great sense of humor, and shared lots of interesting information. We were feeling a bit unwell beforehand, but Manuela and Effie (in the local office) helped us get activated charcoal tablets. A definite recommendation!Posted on Lisa StummerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We took a three-day safari tour with DM Tours and were absolutely thrilled. Our guide, Catana, accompanied us throughout the entire trip through Tsavo East, Tsavo West, and Amboseli National Parks and provided excellent service. Thanks to his experience, knowledge, and friendly manner, the safari became an unforgettable experience. We saw an incredible number of animals and thoroughly enjoyed every moment – it was an indescribably beautiful trip with amazing experiences. What was especially wonderful was how much laughter and fun we had – the atmosphere was simply fantastic. A very special thank you goes to Catana – we wish him all the best and highly recommend him as a guide. We would also like to sincerely thank DM Tours for the lovely surprise with the sparkling wine 🍾 – a very thoughtful gesture! We would travel with DM Tours again in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend this safari.Posted on Alexandra EbTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely recommend!!! We just got back from our 4-day safari tour, which was simply more than perfect! 🤩 We will cherish these experiences forever! ❤️ My special thanks go to James! Thanks to him, this trip was truly an unforgettable experience! We were able to ask him all our questions and learned so much about the animals and nature, as well as the people and life in Kenya! ❤️ We are so grateful for the many conversations, the amazing moments, and this wonderful experience! And if we hadn't had James and his eagle eyes and intuition, we probably would have missed out on quite a few incredible animals. This definitely won't be our last safari with DM Tours and with James 😊Posted on Manuela MerseburgTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were on Chale Island, a beautiful place for our silver wedding anniversary. However, the most magical moments were on our safari. The lion's roar under our stilt house and the trumpeting bull elephant on the road in Tsavo East will certainly remain unforgettable. Katana, with his knack for spotting the best safari moments, whether at sunrise or sunset, ensured we had the best views of the numerous elephant herds, giraffes, zebras, and lions. With his eagle eye, he spotted far more animals for us that we would never have seen otherwise. It was the best three days of our lives. Many thanks to Katana from Manu & Howy
