It is huge area with few tourists, but also animal are quite invisible. Nice to be alone with sun and nature and enjoy peace and red landscape.

Tsavo West is enormous. In December, the animals are quite scattered, so it seemed like we had to do a lot of driving to see the animals.
The scenery is excellent.

We did not see as many animals in this park as the others because the park offers so many more hiding places for the animals but it was at Tsavo when we encountered the leopard which completed our big 5!

Thanks a lot to the team of Beacon Safaris, my week in Kenya was awesome. I enjoyed EVERY MINUTE OF MY TRIP from the great lodge accommodations in Amboseli (Kibo) and in Tsavo (Kilaguni) and the exciting game drives (thank you John for everything). The perfect end was the 3 days in Diani Beach, a paradise on Earth. I gladly recommend Beacon Safaris for a stress free experience!

Ride through while in the train to Mombasa. Saw animals from a distance but didn't get a real feel for the park.

Many animals in a interesting landscape.
Animals are some times difficult to watch because there are many bushes and trees. Sometimes we've seen them after we passed them.
We've seen zebras, ostriches, elephants, giraffes, buffalos, hyenas, hippos and crocodiles (at Mzima Spings). And a lot of birds.
We has a very beautiful lodge inside the park (Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge) with its own water hole. So we could watch several animals at the evening from the balcony of our rooms or the bar.

The wildlife is exceptional, you can see the big five as well as numerous birding opportunities. The weather is just perfect for safari and accommodation is top notch.

Tsavo West lies between the main Nairobi to Mombasa road and Mount Kilimanjaro.

The area is best known for its broad red plains, whose endless acacia scrub and occasional waterholes provide sustenance to a population of elephants
