Itinerary
Choose Full-day, Overnight or Tsavo Combination
Taita Hills can be sold either as a scenic excursion, an overnight safari-style add-on or a route combined with Tsavo. The page should clearly help guests choose the correct version instead of presenting one vague product.
- Full-day scenic option: Best for guests who want views, local landscape and a lighter wildlife-style day without an overnight.
- Overnight option: Better for guests who want an actual safari feel with evening and morning viewing.
- Tsavo combination: Best for guests who want to combine Taita Hills with Tsavo East or Tsavo West for stronger wildlife value.
Typical Full-day Flow: Coast Pickup and Taita Hills Visit
Guests depart early from the coast and drive inland toward the Taita Hills area. This version should be sold as a long day with scenery and possible wildlife, not as a guaranteed big-game safari.
- Pickup: Early hotel pickup with packed breakfast if needed.
- Drive inland: Travel through changing coastal and inland landscapes.
- Main visit: Enjoy the confirmed viewpoint, lodge area, sanctuary activity or scenic programme.
Typical Overnight Flow: Afternoon and Morning Viewing
The overnight version gives the experience more breathing room and is easier to position as a safari-style product.
- Day 1: Drive from the coast, check in, lunch and afternoon wildlife/scenic activity.
- Overnight: Dinner and lodge stay.
- Day 2: Morning activity followed by breakfast and return to the coast.
Return and Upsell Guidance
End with transfer back to the coast or onward to Tsavo.
- Return: Drop off at the hotel or continue on a safari route.
- Upsell: Recommend Tsavo East/West combinations for guests whose main goal is wildlife.
