Our last trip was not a trip of a lifetime, it was the first of many. After our trip to Kenya Africa, immersed in the wildlife and conservation work of Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, I have decided to dedicate one trip a year to this organization. They touched my heart and soul with their work and humble but mighty work.

Unique Indeed: 

Part of the work the Sheldrick does is based on park preservation, and animal rescue and reintegration. Included in your retreat cost, is the opportunity to adopt an elephant from their Voi Reintegration Unit. Leading up to the retreat, you will  receive a personalized adoption certificate or an elephant of your choice, access to unique content, the latest Keepers' Diaries, videos and photos, and monthly email updates on your orphan and the project.  And then, when you arrive Tsavo East, you will be able to visit the Elephant Reintegration Units, meet your adopted elephant and learn more about the project first-hand. This was a huge part of our experience and makes me want to go back again and again.

Nutritious Meals 

Safari Catering Co. personally designs all the menus.  The food is nutritious and plentiful: breakfast, game drive lunches, dinner on the river, and sundowners.

Loose Itinerary

Since we are literally in Tsavo Park, most of our day will be spent on safaris, wildlife viewing, and exploring the park. Each day will be different but it could include game drives, enjoying a bush breakfast, watching the sunset, or visiting the Elephant Reintegration Unit, where you can meet your adopted Elephant!

We have lunch in the camp and rest after a long, luxurious morning of exploring! You will have time to yourself to rejuvenate, connect with others, swim in the pool, or treat yourself to a massage. Our afternoon yoga will be restorative and relaxing.

Luxury Eco Lodges

The conservation-focused properties we stay in Tsavo East National Park, operated by Sheldrick Trust, ensure that all proceeds from our stay directly contribute to wildlife preservation and support various projects within Tsavo.
