Safari with SHERIFF - Tsavo est + Taita hills 3 days / 2 nights... Recommendation safari with Kassim Sharifu called SHERIFF. A person available and prepared in his work, speaks very good Italian and is super helpful. As soon as we arrived he came to meet us in the Resort and left us the sim cards, presenting us the safari program. We spent some beautiful days with him and felt safe. Before starting the experience he accompanied us to a school, also a beautiful and profound experience. Then our safari began, we saw lions, zebras, crocodiles, hippos, leopards, cheetahs and many others... we also relied on him to visit marafa and gede ruins, with transport included. Great prices. We recommend SHERIFF as a Guide for your trip.
You can contact through whatsapp the number is reported on his Facebook page (Kassim sharifu) and Instagram (azmina_tours)

3 DAYS AND 2 NIGHTS SAFARI WITH THE FAMOUS SHERIFF OF KENYA - Fantastic experience, We spent our honeymoon in Kenya and never thought it would be so special. Before the departure from Italy we had already made contact with Shariff whose contact had been provided by the owner of the Trips Agency to which we relied, he immediately proved very helpful. Arrived in the village he came to introduce himself and the next day we immediately left with his agency azmina tours to the first stage tsavo east, already from the early morning we saw many animals, in the evening we stayed in your safari lodge inside the park and the next day we left for thaita hills also here under the wise Guide of the famous Sheriff of Kenya and our very good driver Carlos we admired vastness of animals in the evening then we stayed in the stilts of Saltlick safari lodge a wonderful experience. After the safari we decided to rely on Shariff also for the other excursions that we did in the following days, visits to schools, marafa, gede etc... also he was very helpful in helping us for our needs by providing us with a sim for shopping and other needs.... so we would recommend relying on him for an experience with flakes WITH SHERIFF EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
We will definitely return to him to discover other wonders of Kenya.
You can contact him via WhatsApp the number is on the Facebook page:Kassim Sharifu or Instagram:azmina_tours

Superlative - Wonderful experience. The landscapes are breathtaking, you see lots of animals. Saltlick is an amazing, breathtaking place. You also eat very well!!! There is a puddle under the stilts where the animals go to drink. Abraham portaben (+254 782 663 600 ) organized us an incredible, serious trip always attentive and helpful and provided us with a Guide and an Expert driver, essential to see the animals.

What a lodge - Wow
We so enjoyed our time at Saltlick.
We travelled from Mombasa by rail to Voi and then got bussed up to Taita Hills.
Lunch was at Taita and then we transferred to Saltlick. Its about 40 minutes by coach/ or safari vehicle.
We arrived at Saltlick to find a herd of elephants at the watering hole accompanied by zebra and deer. Wildebest hovered a little further back and the giraffes decided to come in for a drink as well. What a start without even going on a game drive.
The lodge was excellent. Good sized rooms with good facilities in the middle of nowhere.
Our game driver was called Samuel and he was superb. Friendly, great knowledge and so good with our 7 year old grandson. We enjoyed his company for our four daytime drives and the evening drive. This was a great experience. A ranger joined us with a huge torch. The animals must have wondered who was shining a light in their eyes. Anyway we saw Hyena, Bush babies, Owls and even suprised an old Bull Elephant.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ - I would like to recommend this place it felt like home because of the friendly staff from the entrance there was a male receptionist he was very welcoming and responded to all my queries , very polite but I didn’t read his name I apologise for this , the room had a beautiful view to the park, the bed was so comfortable the mattress pillows were so comfortable we slept like babies , unfortunately we couldn’t stay much in the room cos of the safari’s schedule , let me appreciate the cleanses well done by the house keeping , moving along to the food we had buffet as it was full board and you get to choose what you like , the chef were friendly I would give this trophy to Anish , and waitress service to Annett her service was top notch, Annett was so friendly and to make this more enjoyable her service was fast with a 5star customer service, I will definitely come back and the amazing part is you can see the wildlife at the restaurant as you enjoy your meals ,
Definitely coming back ♥️

Incredible experience!!! - Do this Safari!! You will not regret it!!! If you can, do a longer one. It is incredible.
Top tip, take binoculars to see some of the animals.
Our guide Athans was incredible!
We got picked up from our hotel, southern palms in Diani beach at about 6am and drove to Tsavo East which took about 4 hours. You have to catch the mombassa ferry which is slightly chaotic. We stopped once on the way, just before we got to Tsavo East at a gift shop which had lots of wooden animals to buy, I did buy lots! They also had western toilets there which was good.
When we got to the park, we stopped and the driver put the top up so we could stand up and look out, it was great.
At the entrance, they sold safari hats which were cool, you can haggle them down in price, they also sold guides.
We drove in, you stick to paths and saw some elephants but needed binoculars to see.
We stopped for lunch at Aruba lodge and they had a lovey buffet and a chance to use the toilets. We then saw lots more elephants up close that afternoon, including at a watering hole. We stayed in the sanctuary till about 4 or 5pm then drove an hour to a different sanctuary to Taita Hills. We had a lovely Buffett dinner and went to bed. The hotel had a pool but we were so busy we didn’t get time to use it.
The next day at 10am we went on another safari till 1pm, we then had lunch and did an afternoon safari till 5pm ish and then went back out for a few hours just after it got dark. It was incredible, we saw so many animals in that time, zebras, giraffes, elephants and lots of other animals. Our guide was incredible at spotting all the animals and got us close. The night time safari was a really cool experience as it got dark and the ranger had a torch. We didn’t see many animals but was so worth it. I was knackered by bed time as it was a very full on day!
The next morning we had to be up and on safari by 6am! It was worth getting up early though! We saw a lioness and a cheater. We were out a few hours before we went back to the hotel for breakfast and headed back to our resort. On the way back they took us to the gift shop again where I brought more wooden animals that I saw on safari and was able to use the toilet.
The experience was incredible!!! I would definitely go again!! We saw so much and I loved every minute. Our guide, Athans was brilliant! Highly recommend him, he was through Pollmans safaris (we booked via tui). He could spot so many animals and had been doing it for 17 years, he was very experienced.

Trip to remember - What an experience.From day one all the way through everyone made this a trip to remember.The driver Michael couldn’t do enough to ensure that we saw all the animals that were out there.Early morning safari and night safari which is when we saw the Lions.Then after that we had a 10 night stay at The Leopard hotel Diani Beach.Again the staff were excellent and helpful.A special thank you to Hamis and all the pool attendants for ensuring that we had clean towels when needed.A special treat was that we were visited by Colombus Monkeys on our terrace.

Safari experience - Fantastic! We had a room overlooking the waterhole. Accommodation very clean and comfortable. Food was good and plenty of variety.
We especially enjoyed the game drives in Tsavo and our driver Martin made our stay very special. We were able to spot a lot of wildlife and elephants ostrich and waterbuck were frequent visitors to the waterhole at lodge.

Amazing Safari experience - We were picked up early in the morning by Athanus in an amazing Safari Vehicle. It took about 4 hours to get to Tsavo East, with a short stop for refreshments.
It was then into Tsavo East. Shortly after entering the park we saw some Elephants at a distance. As we drove deeper into the park the elephants seemed to swell in number and came so close to the vehicle we were able to get amazing photos with just a phone camera! We must have seen over 100 elephants and loads of Zebras and giraffes as well as numerous antelope and other species. We stopped for a lovely lunch at Aruba Lodge before continuing our adventure in Tsavo East.
At about 4.40pm we left to Sarver East and headed for our evening accommodation at Taita Hills.
Taita Hills was a real slice of luxury on the outskirts of Taita Hills game reserve.
By the time we had finished a delicious dinner, we were so tired we went straight to bed.
The next day, our Safari started at 10 am, once again, we saw a massive selection of animals back to Taita Hills for lunch. After lunch, we had a short drive to Salt Lick lodges.
Although the rooms at Salt Lick are a bit basic all is forgiven as the location is possibly the most amazing location you ever likely to stay at. Upon checking in our rooms, we looked out over the planes and saw two elephant of antelope shortly after head of water back past right below our room to find me a trooper of baboons.
We left for our evening game drive at 5 pm. Where you at accompanied by a park ranger with a high-powered torch, and as the sunset over the park search for the nocturnal animals began. I can say it’s one of the most exciting things I’ve ever done in my life. Once again, we saw lots of zebra, giraffe and elephant, and we’re lucky enough to see a hyena.
We returned to Salt Lick for dinner and then straight to bed.
The next morning was an early start (about 6 pm). Within minutes of travelling our road was blocked by a bull elephant who wouldn’t let us pass !
Shortly after we saw a female lion, enjoying the coal of the morning and then after another 30 minutes or so, we saw a cheetah.
After our morning game drive, it was back to the lodges for breakfast and then we departed for our hotel. on the way back we stopped at a Massai village and although it was interesting the villagers try conning you out of as much money as they can ! If you do go to a local village, remember to take some sweets and possibly some small toys for the children, they really loved it.
We returned to our hotel at about 4 pm for a nice dip in the Pool.
I will guide, Athanus was amazing, he had been doing the job for 17 years and could spot animals miles before any of us ever saw them. He was also super nice and very informative.
If I had to summarise a short safari trip, I would say, it was one of the best three days of my life. we plan to return to Kenya sometime in the future and do a longer Safari.
