Activity itinerary

Shimba Hills National Reserve

  • 8h
Embark on a scenic day trip to Shimba Hills National Reserve, one of Kenya’s last remaining coastal rainforests. Located just a short drive from the coast, this tour offers a perfect blend of wildlife viewing, nature walks, and breathtaking forest scenery. Enjoy approximately five hours of exploration, including a guided bush walk to Sheldrick Waterfalls, opportunities to spot rare wildlife, and a relaxing lunch with panoramic views overlooking the Marere river.

Sheldrick Falls (Pass by)

At the falls, you can relax, enjoy the natural surroundings, and take a refreshing swim in the cool water, conditions permitting. The powerful flow of the waterfall creates a natural water massage that many visitors find relaxing and rejuvenating. Changing rooms are available near the falls. What to bring: Swimwear, a towel, and suitable wet shoes or sandals with good grip. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended for the forest trail. Swimming depends on weather conditions, water levels, and safety instructions from your guide and ranger.
