Together, Tsavo East and Tsavo West form Kenya’s largest national park and one of the wildest safari destinations in Africa. Known for their dramatic landscapes, red-dust elephants, and diverse wildlife, the parks offer a more rugged, off-the-beaten-path experience. From lava flows and springs in the west to open plains in the east, Tsavo is a land of raw beauty and adventure.
