SAFARI TO TSAVO







Tsavo’s massive area and wide range of landscapes make this an ideal place for a varied wildlife safari. The sheer space and freedom of Tsavo lets you really explore and feel at one with this awesome wilderness. Exploring both parks means that your safari will take you through several very different habitats in a single day, encountering many different species.
The open plains are the best place to see the large herds of game. Tsavo is well known as home of Red Elephants which are not friendly.
The plains  of Tsavo is also home to Lions, Elands, Impalas, Kudus and possibly Rhinoceros. In the forested hills, large herds of Buffalo and Giraffe are often found. The forests of Tsavo is home of birds, with a fantastic range of species recorded including a variety of weavers, hornbills, sunbirds, rollers, raptors,owls,eagles and many more.Mzima springs is among the attractions in Tsavo, where the plentiful supply of fresh water has created a verdant oasis. the springs attract plenty of game, and there is an underwater observatory that gives the visitor a unique glimpse into an underwater world dominated by the presence of large pods of hippopotamus. The sight of these ungainly three tonne animals gliding gracefully through the crystal clear waters of Mzima is unforgettable.
