Discover rolling hills, dense rainforests, and coastal savannas, which support a unique range of wildlife. It is the only place in Kenya with a population of sable antelope.
Itinerary for day tour to Shimba Hills from Mombasa/ Diani

You will be picked up at 7:00 am in a private 4 x 4 tourist van for the quick trip to the reserve.
We’ll get to the reserve for a morning game drive, on the lookout for antelope, elephant, giraffe, civet cat, monkey, mongoose, and more. Occasionally lion and leopard are spotted.
You won’t have to look far or hard to spot the park’s 100 or so bird species like ostrich, eagle, and hawk. And fluttering about in colorful display, enjoy the more than 300 varieties of butterflies.
The park is compact and some parts can easily be explored on foot – it’s just a half-hour hike to the cascading waters of stunning Sheldrick Falls.
Soon it’s lunchtime and we’ll rest at one of the picnic site to eat and take in the views.
We’ll spend the rest of the afternoon exploring this charming reserve and head back to the hotel/airport in the evening
Shimba hills national reserve is more of a natural experience rather than a dedicated wildlife viewing experience.
