Your "Taste of Volunteering" Project

Environmental conservation - depending on the time of year, you can help with bird monitoring and tagging, tree planting, and even helping maintain a footbridge to a bird lookout point, which local guides are highly trained and earn valuable income.

Trip Summary

Upon arrival, we have a relaxing day in Nairobi, having a tour, before our overnight train ride to Mombassa, from where we transfer to Malindi on the Kenyan coast. After a day relaxing, you will start your volunteer project with an environmental group, Arocha.

After four meaningful days of environmental conservation in Watamu, the game parks beckon! First stop is Tsavo East Park, where we spend two days on the look out for the ‘Big 5’.

We then have two days in Amboseli, in view of Mt Kilimanjaro (on a clear day), before a rest in Nairobi en route to the world renowned Maasai Mara National Park.

By the time you return home, you will have tasted three distinctly different safari parks, and should have seen lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, hippo, and maybe even the elusive leopard or cheetah.

This trip ends back in Nairobi with a transfer to the airport for your flight home.
