3 Days 2 Nights Tsavo National Park safari


Description

Tsavo National Park is one of Kenya's most renowned and largest national parks, situated in the southeastern part of the country. It is divided into two separate parks: Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West National Park.

Tsavo East National park is the larger of the two parks.

  • This park is known for its vast open savannahs, arid landscapes, and the Yatta Plateau, one of the world's longest lava flows.
  • Wildlife is abundant in Tsavo East, and you can spot various animals, including elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, and a wide variety of bird species.
  • The Galana River, which flows through the park, is a focal point for wildlife viewing, especially during the dry season when animals gather around the waterholes.

 

Tsavo West National Park is slightly smaller than Tsavo East 

  • The landscape in Tsavo West is more diverse, with rolling hills, volcanic craters, and a variety of habitats, including swamps, springs, and dense woodlands.
  • Notable attractions in Tsavo West include Mzima Springs, where you can observe hippos and crocodiles underwater from an underwater viewing chamber, and the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary, dedicated to the conservation of the endangered black rhinoceros.
  • Tsavo West also boasts stunning geological features like the Shetani Lava Flows and Chaimu Crater.
