Adventure to Safari
Location: Tsavo National Park at Tsavo, Kenya |
Tsavo
National Park is one of the oldest and largest parks in Kenya at 22,000 square
kilometers. This attracts tourists from every corner in the world. Like the
Masai Mara Reserve, it is the ultimate place to be one with wilderness. It is
the perfect place for educational trips. Tsavo also provides a sense of
solitude and calmness, perfect for retreats and meditation.
The
National Park is divided into two, Tsavo East and Tsavo West, by the A109
highway, for easier management. Both sides serve as homes to hundreds of wild
life species. The park is perfect for spotting bird species too.
The
Tsavo East is known for its large herds of elephants. People can see groups of
buffaloes, having a thousand in a herd. Its hills are covered with scrub. The
savannah on the East is best for game viewing. From a distance, lions can be
spotted near the Aruba Dam. You can see the ecosystem in its natural
form—without cages. You can see lions moving stealthily around their target
preys.
Tsavo East |
The
Tsavo West, just across the road, attracts more visitors. This is because of
its geographic features. The lodges here have beautifully designed
infrastructures to provide better view of the volcanic landscape. The place has
several antelope and hundreds of bird species too. However, the hills and
bushes made it hard to spot games. This is why the lodges built artificial
water holes. Now, that solves the game viewing problem.
Tsavo West |
You can visit the Lugard Falls and the Mzima Springs. Lugard Falls is the major attraction in Tsavo National Park. These are the fresh water
sources of Mombasa. The Tsavo National Park has lodges in it too. So there is
no worry when you want the comfort of a soft bed, or the taste of Kenyan
delicacies. Popular lodges include the Kilaguni Serena Safari, Sarova Salt Lick
Game and the Voyager Ziwani Lodges.
Other attraction in Tsavo National Park are: Elephant in Eden, Aruba Dam, Mudanda Rock, Game viewing, Camping, Trekking and Bird Watching.
