Africa Safari Vacations In Kenya & Tanzania

TSAVO WEST NATIONAL PARK, KENYA

Tsavo (East & West) is the largest park in Kenya, and at 20,807 km², it is one of the largest in the world. Tsavo West National Park is an international wildlife and environmental treasure chest. It contains a variety of habitat, geological soil types, animals, birds and plants. Tsavo West (7000 km²) is divided by the Nairobi - Mombasa road and railway. The park is close to Amboseli National Park, and on a clear day in Tsavo West, you can see the Kilimanjaro. Tsavo West in Kenya is hilly, rocky, greener and more vegetated than Tsavo East but each has its own diversity.

More than 50 different kinds of mammals graze, browse, hunt and scavenge in the grasslands and bush country of the Tsavo West. Zebras are always seen slaking their thirst near Tsavo West's luxurious game lodges. Among the more unusual of the animals are the gerenuk, a long necked antelope that browses on the higher, sweeter leaves of the acacia thorns. Carnivores are also abundant in the park.

The most famous of Tsavo West's site is Mzima Springs, where rainfall collected in the porous volcanic rocks springs forth at the rate of 225 million liters a day into pools and streams of crocodile and hippo infested waters. Tsavo West offers excellent luxury camp and lodges for your safari in Africa. Severin Camp, Kilanguni Lodge and Finch Hattons Camp are the famous and opted ones.
