4 days · By road or rail · Lumo Community Wildlife Sanctuary, Taita Hills
Tsavo · taita hills and lumo
Between the two Tsavos, a community sanctuary and a private one. Visit Lumo, set up by local communities, where tourism pays for the wildlife, then watch elephants at night from a lodge on stilts.
The signature moment: Elephants drinking beneath the walkway, lit by the lodge’s lamps.
