Combined, Tsavo East and West form one of the largest national parks in the world, a territory larger than many small nations. This is a land of legends—from the “Man-eaters of Tsavo” to the famous Red Elephants, so named for the red volcanic soil they dust themselves with for protection.

While Tsavo East is characterized by semi-arid plains and the immense Yatta Plateau (the world’s longest lava flow), Tsavo West is a volcanic marvel featuring Mzima Springs—where fifty million gallons of crystal-clear water gush out daily—and the dramatic black Shetani lava flows. It is a destination for those seeking a raw, untamed safari experience.
