Tsavo East to Mombasa
Wake up early and enjoy breakfast before beginning the final morning of your Kenya Tour. You will check out of Voi Safari Lodge and enjoy a short morning game drive as you make your way toward the park exit.

Your guide will keep watch for elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, antelopes, and other wildlife that may be found along the route. The final game drive also gives you one more opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Tsavo East before leaving the national park. After exiting Tsavo East, you will continue your journey toward Mombasa. The route takes you through coastal countryside and local communities as the landscape gradually changes from the dry interior to the warmer coastal environment. You are expected to arrive in Mombasa around lunchtime. Your driver-guide will then transfer you to your preferred hotel or another agreed drop-off point in the city. This marks the end of your Kenya Tour. From Mombasa, you can continue with a beach holiday, relax at your hotel, or arrange additional activities along the Kenyan coast.
