Safari Tour Mombasa – Discover Kenya’s Wild Side from the Coast

A safari tour from Mombasa offers the perfect blend of coastal relaxation and thrilling wildlife encounters. Whether you’re based at a beach resort or visiting Mombasa as part of a Kenya holiday, game reserves like Tsavo East, Tsavo West, and Amboseli are just a few hours away—making them ideal for short or extended safaris.

At Steve and Richard Safaris, we offer carefully curated Mombasa safari packages that start right from your hotel. Experience the magic of Kenya’s wilderness without venturing far from the Indian Ocean coastline.

Top Safari Destinations from Mombasa

1. Tsavo East National Park – Red Elephants and Big Cats

Tsavo East National Park is Kenya’s oldest and one of the largest parks. It’s just a 3-hour drive from Mombasa, making it a top destination for day trips or overnight safaris. Expect sightings of red-dusted elephants, lions, buffalo, giraffes, and prolific birdlife.

Explore this wilderness with our popular Tsavo East 1-day safari from Diani.

2. Tsavo West National Park – Scenic and Wild

Linked to its eastern counterpart, Tsavo West is known for its rugged terrain, Mzima Springs, and views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Wildlife is abundant, and the park is perfect for multi-day safaris that combine landscape and wildlife diversity.

Combine both parks in one of our Kenya safari holiday packages for a more immersive experience.

3. Amboseli National Park – Elephants Beneath Kilimanjaro

Amboseli National Park lies farther inland but is well worth the drive or short flight from Mombasa. It’s famous for large elephant herds set against the snow-capped peaks of Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Include Amboseli in a 5-day safari starting from Diani or book a private itinerary via our Kenya air safaris for faster access.
