Tsavo West
Tsavo West National Park is known as the land of Lava, springs, man-eaters and magical sunset Tsavo West is the second largest national park in Kenya covering a total area of 9,065 square kilometres and it’s the rocky park that is characterized by the rugged wilderness, scrublands, acacia woodlands and many more vegetation covers. Our Bush & Beach Safaris are tailored to your desires, so you can spend more time in the remote outback with shorter trips to the beach, or you may lounge by the sea for an extended time with limited tours of local protected areas.
A longer beach retreat with a shorter safari option suits the needs of some of our guests who are planning a first time or repeat bush and beach trip to the East African coastline of Kenya. You may wish to board a flight that arrives into Mombasa, sometimes on a weekly charter flight. You can then spend a few days on the beachfront then journey out into parks and reserves like Tsavo, Amboseli or even Masai Mara for two to three nights for safari game driving, village visits, nature walks, hiking and other wilderness activities before returning to your seaside hotel for the remaining period of your vacation. The third option is to have equal time on safari and at the seashore. The good thing is that our itineraries can be customized to fit each client’s needs and budget.
On the first day of the safari, you will be picked from your hotel for an early departure by your safari driver guide. You will embark on your drive to Tsavo West national park which takes approximately 6-7 hours.
