Sandwiched between Tsavo East and the Tanzania border, Tsavo West has an impressive landscape of mountain ranges, river forests, lakes and open wide savannahs. There are no fenced borders so the game roam freely from park to park, game such as leopard, cheetah, buffalo, rhino, elephant, giraffe, zebra, lion, plains game, crocodile. Visitors to the park are able to take part in 4x4 game drives and walks getting really close to nature and taking time to notice the smaller inhabitants such as mongoose, hyrax, dik dik and the nocturnal porcupine.

On safari here you will see large herds of elephant, their hides often a luminous red with dust, as well as lion, buffalo, eland, giraffe impala, kudu and possibly rhinoceros.

One of Tsavos most interesting geographical features is the Lugard Falls, where white water rages through a series of spectacular rock formations. Also not to be missed is the volcanic Mzima springs. These natural springs produce 50 million gallons of fresh sparkling water daily. These waters are alive with shoals of barbel and Hippopotamus and waterfowl.

A unique underwater observatory has been built that gives you an incredible view of this crystal clear underwater world, where massive hippos glide silently through swirling shoals of barbel. These springs have created a sprawling wetland paradise of giant Raphia palms and oases alive with waterbirds.
