At a glance

Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West National Park each have their own unique atmosphere and resident wildlife, making them both worthy of a visit. Combined, Tsavo East and Tsavo West form one of the largest national parks in the world, covering 13,747 sq km, which is almost 4% of Kenya’s entire landmass.

The sight of dust-red elephants wallowing, rolling, and spraying each other with the midnight-blue waters of the palm-shaded Galana River is one of the most evocative images in Africa. Along with the 300-kilometer-long Yatta Plateau, the longest lava flow in the world, this creates an adventure unlike any other. Tsavo East National Park also features prolific birdlife, with 500 recorded species.

Tsavo West National Park offers some of the most magnificent game viewing in the world. Attractions include elephants, rhinos, hippos, lions, cheetahs, leopards, buffalos, and diverse plant and bird species, including the threatened corncrake and the near-threatened Basra reed warbler.

Detailed Kenya Safari itinerary

Day 3: Kenya Coast

This day, you will have breakfast, then depart at 08:00 for Mzima Springs. The word "Mzima" means “alive.” Yet the life of Kenya’s Mzima Springs is largely born of ash and dung. In the neighboring Chyulu Range stand porous peaks of volcanic ash, whose youngest cones formed about 500 years ago. Rising 7,000 feet (2,000 meters) above an arid plain, these hills trap up to three feet (one meter) of rain each year from moisture-laden winds. All that rain soaks into the sponge-like ash and percolates down until it hits impervious bedrock and begins its underground journey to Mzima Springs, some 25 miles (40 kilometers) away.You will then be driven to the Kenya coast, enjoying a sumptuous lunch on the way, arriving at your hotel at around 18:30 in time for dinner and overnight stay.
