Step inland from the coast for a quieter forest-and-wildlife chapter around Shimba Hills. This two-day proposal gives the reserve its own time rather than treating it as a hurried beach-holiday detour.
Your suggested 2-day journey
- Day 1: Travel from an agreed south-coast meeting point to your Shimba Hills-area base. Review the reserve outing and walking options with your guide, leaving room for an unhurried afternoon.
- Day 2: Explore the reserve by the vehicle arrangement in your quote. A guided walk towards Sheldrick Falls can be discussed separately, subject to current access and the party’s suitability, before returning to the coast.
Plan the details
Reserve drives and a falls walk are different activities. Confirm the ranger, trail conditions, footwear, transfers and overnight location. Forest cover makes wildlife viewing different from an open-plains safari; specific sightings are never promised.
Make the pace your own
Tell us your dates, walking preferences, party size and accessibility or dietary needs. We adjust the proposal around the actual overnight base, local access and realistic transfer times. A submitted enquiry does not reserve accommodation or activities.
Guide price and your written quote
The USD guide is per adult for the whole suggested itinerary, based on two adults sharing rooms and ground services where applicable. All flights, visas, insurance, tips and personal spending are excluded. The travel team itemises accommodation, meals, entry fees, guides, vehicles, transfers and any optional activities in the final written quote before you pay.
One night, starts/ends Diani; no Nairobi-to-coast transport. Reconfirm the overnight lodge, additional vehicle time and entry-day charging. Waterfall walking requires authorised ranger access, conditions and participant suitability; no swimming or sighting guarantee.
