Arusha - Tsavo
Help please!! Does anyone know if it's possible to go, flying I guess, to Ithumba, Sheldricks Camp, just for the day. We'd prefer not to stay overnight if possible.
Has anyone stayed at the elephant camp?

Jan has stayed at Ithumba http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...p;tid=34754641
I would say the only way to go to Ithumba for the day from Arusha would be to charter a plane. There are no scheduled flights to Ithumba or any part of Tsavo East.

... and consider if you're in Arusha, Tanzania and have to get to Tsavo in Kenya... different countries, need a point to stop for immigration, you'll require a visa. Even with a private charter, would be best flying from Nairobi, Kenya.
Did you check with the Sheldrick group how, cost, etc.? If doable and not cost prohibitive, would your schedule provide the time (probably 2/days minimum) in Kenya?
