History
Lumo is a community-run conservancy created to protect wildlife corridors between the Taita Hills and Tsavo, generating income through responsible tourism while preserving grazing and migration routes.
Conservation
The conservancy model here depends on low-impact tourism revenue; follow lodge rules, avoid single-use plastics, and minimize noise to support long-term habitat protection.
Reserve your spot on the Private 3 Days Train Package Lumo Conservancy (Taita Hills) today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Book early for train seats
SGR check-in begins well before departure—reserve your train and transfers to ensure timely arrival at Voi station.
Sun and dust protection
Long, open game drives mean strong sun and dust—sunglasses, sunscreen, and a bandana or buff help comfort during drives.
Carry binoculars
A compact pair of binoculars makes distant sightings and birding far more rewarding from the lodge and on drives.
Respect wildlife distances
Follow ranger guidance—do not disembark vehicles near animals, especially elephants and big cats, to avoid stress or danger.
Lightweight long-sleeve shirt
Protects against sun and mosquitoes during early morning and evening drives.
Binoculars (8x–10x)
Essential for spotting distant game and birds in the conservancy.
Sturdy walking shoes
Needed for optional bush walks and uneven lodge paths.
Wide-brim hat and sunscreen
Sun protection is crucial during open-vehicle game drives and midday periods.
