OVERVIEW
Tsavo is a huge protected savanna region in southern Kenya, with dry plains, woodland and volcanic landscapes supporting elephants, predators and diverse birdlife. Separate eastern and western sectors feel markedly different. The relationship between red earth, volcanic hills and vast elephant country across an immense savanna divided by roads and rivers and lava gives the wider destination a distinctive structure beyond its principal visitor area.
Game drives cover long distances, while springs, lava fields and river corridors add variation. The scale rewards more than one day and careful sector selection. Spending time with both red earth and volcanic hills and vast elephant country across an immense savanna divided by roads reveals more of the destination than focusing only on its best known sights.

THINGS TO DO
See Tsavo’s savanna panoramas
Set aside time at Tsavo’s savanna panoramas specifically for the natural panorama, not merely as a stop between activities. Visibility and access can change with weather and season.
Drive Tsavo’s scenic roads
Build a manageable drive through Tsavo’s scenic roads, allowing for stops and slower roads. In a destination as spread out as Tsavo, choose a route that works from your base.
Road Trips
Half or full day
Take a game drive in Tsavo
Take a guided game drive in Tsavo’s principal game-viewing area, using local expertise to understand habitats and animal behaviour. Wildlife moves freely, so no species or sighting should be guaranteed.
