Tsavo East National Park is one of the world's largest game reserves, providing undeveloped wilderness homes to vast numbers of animals.We have stayed at a few lodges both in Tsavo east and West and had good sightings of most of kenya's wildlife.

This is the first park my 5 yo son and I visited during this trip.
We had an excellent driver and confortable car for the whole safarifrom ketsafaris.com and spent our night in a good place with wonderful view, good food and leopards elephants and buffalo coming in front of us. Scenic view was excellent and we did really enjoy the time we spent there

Tsavo EastNational Park is big and has a bigger number of wildlife. though most of them are hard to find. if you happen to be at the right place in the right time, you will be happy you visited. if you are lucky enough you'll find all the big five members in a day. There are good hotels inside the park incase one plans on staying for a fews days.

It's a very large park and you may drive for a long time without seeing many animals. The scenery is nice though and there is plenty of elephants. You are also not likely to encounter many other vehicles

Tsavo East is as epic.

Wild animals living free in copious amounts of land.

We even managed to find a lion pride eating a kill and a lion stalking a gazelle through the bush.

The whole experience was a great adventure and one I would recommend to anyone seeking a taste of what it's like to see animals in the wild instead of a false zoo experience where the animals are caged

Not nearly as much wildlife as Tsavo West. Very sparse sightings. But the beauty is fabulous. I wish we had spent more time there and my opinion may be more favorable.

Elephants on the rocks just above the track and a tower of giraffes on a steep incline. Amazing to the these huge animals in this terrain. Mzima Springs is worth a visit to see hippos, crocs, monkeys and blue fish. When we arrived at Chyulu Gate to enter the park a very friendly kudu antelope approached us and wanted to be petted. An amazing encounter. On our way out, twenty minutes from the Tsavo gate, we observed a leopard resting in the shade on the side of the track.

Unfortunately, there was a temporary drought in this reserve during my visit. Lots of animals have moved elsewhere as a result.

We had an excellent time viewing hundreds of red elephants, antelope of varying types, lions, giraffe's, zebras and so much more. Beautiful scenery in a lovely park.
