Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best area to stay in Shimba Hills National Reserve?

The best area to stay in Shimba Hills National Reserve is within the reserve itself, particularly near Sheldrick Falls or the main gate.

Staying inside the reserve offers unparalleled access to wildlife. The main lodge, often situated with views over the Mwaluganje Elephant Sanctuary, provides a direct connection to nature. You'll find yourself surrounded by the sights and sounds of the bush, with opportunities for game drives right from your doorstep.

For couples seeking a romantic and exclusive escape, properties within the reserve provide a secluded setting. Imagine waking up to the sounds of birds and enjoying breakfast with panoramic views of the plains, followed by guided walks to Sheldrick Falls or evening game drives.

When is the best time to go to Shimba Hills National Reserve?

The best time to visit Shimba Hills National Reserve is during the cooler, dry seasons, specifically from June to October and January to February.

These months offer clearer skies and less humidity, making wildlife viewing more comfortable and enjoyable. The drier conditions mean animals tend to congregate around water sources, which can make them easier to spot. It's also a good time for walking safaris to Sheldrick Falls as the trails are less muddy.

For travellers who enjoy comfortable weather and want to maximise their chances of seeing wildlife, especially the rare sable antelope, these dry periods are ideal.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by logging in, going to "My Trips", and selecting your reservation. To find flexible deals, filter your search by "Fully refundable property" for hotels in Shimba Hills National Reserve.

Prices for hotels in Shimba Hills National Reserve often vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $22 on Expedia.
