Tsavo East National Park
Home of dust-red elephants
Tsavo East National Park measures 13,747 square kilometers, making it one of the largest and most popular national parks in Kenya. The park displays magnificent sceneries with a grand set of biodiversity-a lifetime experience for nature and adventure lovers. Equally dramatic, one of its outstanding features is the population of elephants, which are famously dust-red from the iron-rich soil they wallow in. It is these commanding creatures together with lions, leopards, cheetahs, and crocodiles that create an incomparable spectacle of African wildlife in its natural setting.
Tsavo East is also known for its heaven of bird watchers, with many variances in species. The meandering Galana River adds serenity and adventure to the park. One can take scenic river cruises, fishing, or even refreshing swims with breathtaking views. Landscapes and the river are well-suited for guided nature walks to take in flora and fauna. Other highlights include game drives whereby tourists get to travel across expansive plains and see wildlife from close quarters.
These accommodations in the park cater to the needs and tastes of as many travelers as possible: from luxury in a safari lodge to a simple, cheap campsite view. Tsavo East offers comfortable places to rest amidst the wild. Scenic views of abundant wildlife and exciting activities make Tsavo East National Park one of those places promising an unforgettable journey into the heart of Kenya’s beauty.
