    Amazing experience

    Charles was a really great guide. I travelled with a friend of mine, for her it was the first Safari, for me the fourth. We were both so happy… We knew that we wouldn‘t see Rhinos or Leopards around the Saltlick Lodge, but he managed to show us everything else. Lions walking infront of our car, cheetahs hunting, lots of giraffs, zebras and elephants and many many more animals, we had a great time. We really recommend this great experience. The lodge itself is a dream as well, so many animals coming to the waterhole… it‘s impossible to describe, you have to see it yourself. And no worries everything works out perfectly, organization, pick up etc. absolutely smooth. Thank you Bushdwellers, Thank you Charles.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled that both of you had such a memorable safari with Charles. Seeing lions up close, cheetahs hunting, and so much other wildlife must have been incredible! We’re also delighted you loved Salt Lick Lodge and its amazing waterhole wildlife sightings. Charles will truly appreciate your kind words. Thank you for trusting and recommending Bushdwellers!

    Nature and luxury combined - focus on a high level of elegant service and the best cuisine

    It was a wonderful experience, starting with the booking (with Bushdwellers) and the nice contact with Peter, to the meeting at our hotel in Diani Beach for the handover to our guide Mike. Everything was transparent, polite, and trustworthy. The safari and lodge (Salt Lick and Taita Hills) experience is indescribably beautiful. The arrival and overnight stay were at the Salt Lick Lodge, it was magical (I have photos of the room here), this quiet and peaceful untouched nature mixed with a high level of service and courtesy from the staff, that does not exist again in this world, you have to have experienced this place. The team is wonderful, the food was SO SO good, and the rooms were dreamlike. What would I do differently? Instead of 3 days, easily a whole week. Especially if you have children. The Taita Hills Lodge has a pool and soccer area and spa. They have fresh water from the tap, and I should have done a week here with safari and a week at the beach instead of 3 days of safari. All pictures were taken in 2 days; there are really good chances to see wild animals. Nature rules! You could go on a night safari AND look at the stars and have them explained to you. Definitely stay here a few days longer; there is really nowhere else like this. Thanks for everything 🙌

    Response from the operator: Thank you for this beautiful review! We’re delighted that everything, from booking with Peter to your safari with Mike, was smooth and memorable. It’s wonderful to hear how much you loved Salt Lick, Taita Hills, the wildlife, food and hospitality. Your wish to stay a whole week is the greatest compliment! Thank you for trusting us with your family adventure. 🙌

    3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mombasa.

    How much does 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa cost?

    +

    Prices start at $900 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mombasa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mombasa is not rushed.

    Is 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mombasa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mombasa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mombasa and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mombasa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Mombasa?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Mombasa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Walking Tour Through Old Town Mombasa and Fort Jesus, Visit to Fort Jesus and the Old Town of Mombasa, Half-Day Scenic Bike Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Mombasa?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Mombasa?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 3 Days Taita Hills in Saltlick Lodge Private Safari from Mombasa?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Tips; soft & alcoholic drinks; and night game drive. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
