As part of our extensive eco-interface, we offer cultural visits to local villages. If you are ready to go further afield up into the Taita Hills there is much to see.

Our visitors are invited to enter a typical ethnic home, watch a dance display, or beading and handicrafts being done. You will have the opportunity to see how the farmers manage diverse crops such as dry land beans, Aloe Vera plants and pastoral activity, such as cattle and goat maintenance. Often they will also be invited to purchase locally-made items- much more authentic than those available in the usual gift shops.

If you are ready to go further you can be driven to Wundanyi, about an hour and a half from Lions Bluff, to explore the skull caves. The caves are collapsing but the skulls remain; the youngest dates back to the 1920s. People travelled vast distances to these caves to commune with their god and offer sacrifices in return for their health. Nearby one can visit the small waterfalls and enjoy the beautiful landscape dubbed 'little Switzerland' because of its stunning hilly terrain and breathtaking views.

Drive an extra half hour to reach Ngang'ao forest, an untouched rain forest where one can be guided through thick, dripping vegetation in the hope of seeing rare birds and butterflies which only exist here.

About 45 minutes drive from here one can climb Wesu Rock, either as a real rock climber where one will need ropes and equipment or a brisk stroll to the top to enjoy yet another panoramic view for miles over the Taitas.

Climb the beautiful Taita Hills. Drive through lush, mountainous Taita, where the climate is perfect and the views stunning over what is known to the locals as ‘ little Switzerland.’ The highest, Vuria (2,300 meters above sea level), is easily identified by the mobile phone mast on top. It is possible to drive to this point. Eyale, on the other hand, is lower and can be climbed on foot.

It takes about 55 minutes of steep walking from where you leave your vehicle to the panoramic view. The vegetation is montane forest, and here you can spot the rare Taita Apalis, the Ross Turacos, the Cabanis Greenbul, and Syke monkeys, among other mammals. We pack a picnic meal on request.

Mzima Springs are a series of four natural springs in Tsavo National Park, that produces an incredible 250 million litres of fresh water a day. The source of the spring rises in the Chyulu Hills and provides the bulk of Mombasa’s fresh water. The springs are resident to hippos, Nile crocodiles, and a wide variety of birdlife. There’s an underwater viewing chamber, where you can see the fish, in the clear waters.

‘Shetani’ means ‘devil’ in Kiswahili. The flows were formed a few hundred years ago. The local people believe that it was the devil himself emerging from the earth. This vast expanse of folded black lava spreads for 50 kilometers across the savannah near the Chyulu Hills. The last major eruption here is believed to have taken place around 200 years ago. Nearby are the Shetani Caves, which are also the result of volcanic activity. Picnic lunch included. Park fees are payable direct and not included.
