4-Day Tsavo West & Amboseli Safari from Diani or Mombasa

Explore Tsavo West and Amboseli on a 4-day Kenya safari from Diani or Mombasa with Mzima Springs, elephants, game drives and possible Mount Kilimanjaro views.

 

Safari Overview

From the Indian Ocean to Kilimanjaro Country

A 4-day Tsavo West and Amboseli safari from Diani or Mombasa takes you from the beaches of Kenya’s Coast into two very different national parks.

Start among the volcanic landscapes and natural springs of Tsavo West National Park, then continue to Amboseli National Park, where elephants roam beneath the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro.

The contrast is part of what makes this safari special.

Tsavo West brings rugged hills, lava formations, woodland and Mzima Springs. Amboseli opens into broad plains, seasonal wetlands and some of Kenya’s most recognizable elephant landscapes, with Mount Kilimanjaro providing a spectacular backdrop when the mountain is visible.

With three nights on safari, you have time for several game drives without trying to fit both parks into a rushed itinerary.

This safari is ideal for couples, honeymooners, families, photographers and international travelers staying along the Kenya Coast who want to add a genuine wildlife experience to their beach holiday.

With Horizon Explorer Africa Safaris, we arrange your Coast transfers, safari vehicle, accommodation, park visits and game drives around your travel dates and preferences.

Your journey, your way.
