Going on a safari is impossible for people with disabilities, you say? Then let us welcome you to our wheelchair friendly itinerary – a dream journey with shorter distances and all wheelchair friendly accommodations. As Kenya is an enormous country, and many parks are located far from each other, we set up this itinerary especially with the needs of disabled people in mind. Which doesn’t mean you’ll miss out on anything. Quite the contrary: this itinerary, to be frank, will make your wildest Kenya dreams come true! With two of the most famous national parks in the world, a lesser-known but stunning game reserve and, of course, Kenya’s paradise of Diani Beach, no wish will be left unfulfilled.
Starting from the unique coastal town Mombasa, your first stop will be the Ngutuni Wildlife Conservancy, a private game reserve in between Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Park. It’s the area where the famous man-eating lions used to roam. But don’t worry, nowadays, your first encounter with the Kenyan wildlife will be less dangerous for you – promise! Afterward you’ll head to Tsavo West National Park to discover all of its hidden and less hidden gems before you spend the last two days searching for the (in)famous Big Five in the vast Tsavo East National Park. You’ve seen enough wildlife? Alright, then the white sands and blue waters of Diani Beach await you, the best place to just sit back and enjoy!
Many people travelling to the African continent have questions about safety. Is Kenya safe to travel to? Our answer is clear: YES!
Kenya is definitely a safe country to visit, especially for people going on organised game drives with private guides as you will do with us. There are definitely some places to avoid in big cities like Nairobi or Mombasa, but – as with all big cities – by taking some precautions, you’ll be fine. We advise, for example, to leave the hotel at night with a driver and not to go strolling around alone. Also be aware not to wear big and visible jewellery, and keep an eye on your valuables.
This is an exclusive, private safari that allows you to travel at your own pace. This trip is made just for you, exactly as you want it! Our experienced travel consultants will make sure that your wishes come true. There are numerous advantages to such a trip. First, you can cruise around in a private safari vehicle and have a personal guide. It’s completely up to you what time you leave in the morning and when you come back (taking into account your guide’s advice, of course). Secondly, once you’re in a national park, you can observe specific animals or herds for as long as you like. No one will push you to move along. And lastly, knowing your wishes, your personal guide will give you the right tips, turning your trip into an unforgettable experience.
At Africa Safari Trips, we’re all about co-creating your perfect journey. When you plan your African adventures with us, you’re not just booking a trip; you’re embarking on a personalised experience.
