Tsavo National Parks

Tsavo National Park is split into Tsavo East and Tsavo West. The Tsavo Parks are vast and the landscape is wild. Tsavo East is less developed than Tsavo West but more accessible. In Tsavo West you can watch elephants bathe among the hippos and the crocs from a unique vantage point of an under-water glass tank. The “Big Five” do live here, but you have to look carefully to spot them.
