Itinerary

Day 1Severin Safari Camp

We will transfer you in the morning to the train station in Nairobi or Mombasa and the SGR drops you via Chyulu Hills to the second largest park – Tsavo West, famed for the notorious “Man Eaters of Tsavo”. The man eating lions preyed on the railway linesmen building the great Uganda Railway.

You will get off in Mtito Andei the small town exactly in the middle between Nairobi and Mombasa. The driver from Severin Safari Camp will pick you up and you will drive around 1 hour through the National Park to the camp. If you are lucky you might see already a leopard on your drive to the camp. The area around Severin Safari Camp is well known for all big cats.

Check-in on arrival followed by late lunch. In the afternoon you can relax in the Kenbali Spa or watch from your tent terrace the game. The camp has 5 water wholes. You will spot a lot of African wildlife.

Severin Safari Camp is hidden in the remote Kitani Wildlife area of Tsavo West National Park overlooking the Mt. Kilimanjaro. The eco friendly luxury camp offers a unique combination of adventure, wellness and relaxation for the sophisticated traveler who loves romantic pampering and unique wildlife experiences. The remote location of the camp and that it is un-fenced allows wildlife to cross the floodlit waterholes. Maasai warriors guard the camp ground 24 hours and accompany guests after darkness to and from the tents. The camp offers 27 luxurious accommodations with complimentary WIFI spread over 25 hectares of bush land.

Day 2Maasai walk and game drive

In the morning after breakfast you will take a walk with a Maasai guide and he will explain how locals read tracks and overleft of the game in the wild and which plants are helpful in their daily life. You will have lunch in the bush before you go on an afternoon game drive.

Tsavo West and East National Park is recognized as the third largest national park in the world and rich with great herds of elephants, giraffes, zebras and impalas passing through the area in search for patches of grass. With over 22.000 square kilometers there is a lot to discover during the game drives. We recommend guests to visit the Mzima Springs, Roaring Rocks, Rhino Sanctuary, Poacher’s Lookout, Taita and Chyulu Hills, Chaimu Crater and the various lava caves as the Laviathan. The Khama Rhino Sanctuary Trust is a community based wildlife project, established in 1992 to assist in saving the vanishing rhino, and to restore an area formerly teeming with wildlife to its previous natural state.

Your game drive will end with a sundowner at the Poacher´s Lookout. After dinner you can review your day at the bonfire.

Day 3Game drive, safari massage

You will start your day with an early morning game to spot the Leopards around the camp. The camp is even in the territory of one Leopard. Sometimes at night he is enjoying the sun bed at Kenbali Spa. Also big cats like it homely.

The park offers remark-able views with a variety of habitats ranging from mountains, river forest, lakes and wooded grassland. It is also an excellent park for visitors who enjoy walking, offering a number of nature trails and the opportunity to explore the Chaimu volcanic Lava. If time allows enjoy time within the Rhino sanctuary for the opportunity to see the endangered Rhinocerous.

After the late breakfast you will enjoy the camp and the Kenbali Spa andenjoy a “safari” massage.

Experience the unique freedom of senses at our KENBALI SPA: Inspired by the African wilderness and ancient South East Asian techniques for relaxation, our Wellness area is an oasis of calm and relaxation. After your morning in the bush, enjoy the fantastic backdrop of the wilderness from the pool or relax with a pleasant massage in an absolutely private atmosphere.
