You will arrive and start the safari game drive until 10:00. The driver guide will then ask if any of the guests want to visit the sheldrick falls, which is optional and part of the program. If you say yes, you will be accompanied by a ranger to the 21 meter high fall which is laced with lianas and greenery and has a natural plunge pool. water fall which is about 4 kilometer walk to and from. We strongly recommend the water fall visit to the physically fit only. The shimba hills landscape is hilly and not even so descending to the water fall is generally easy however ascending is strenuous for the physically unfit. Incase you are not visiting the water fall, you will continue with the game drive until lunch time. You will have lunch at the shimba hills lodge within Kenya's coastal rain forest.
