Tsavo West National Park

This Park covers a huge variety of landscapes, from swamps and natural springs to rocky peaks, extinct volcanic cones and rolling plains. Wildlife is difficult to spot because of the dense scrub. Birds are common and there are large populations of elephants, zebras, hippos and leopards. Lions are out there, but they tend to stay hidden.

The focus is Mzima springs, which produces 93 gallons of fresh water a day. There’s an underwater viewing chamber. Another attraction is the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary, at the base of Ngulia Hills, part of Rhino Ark program.
