Tsavo West National Park is located between the cities of Nairobi and Mombasa. Tsavo West National Park is the continuity of one of the greatest National Parks in the world.
The west incorporates rolling vistas of hills and bush, stark, volcanic outpourings, honeycombed tunnels shaped by the bubbling Tsavo River itself. Eden-like pools and freshwater springs, shaded by palm and fig trees can be found at Mzima Springs and along the river banks.
This breathtaking expanse of landscape attracts all of Africa’s Big-Five animals, the small and mysterious ones too. There are also sanctuaries for the black rhino as well as antelope, gazelle, melanistic servals, aardwolves and 400 bird species.
Best Time to Visit Tsavo West National Park
The best time to visit Tsavo West National Park is during the dry months of June to October and January to March, when wildlife gathers around water sources and the park is easier to explore.
While the wet seasons (April–May and November–December) bring lush scenery and fewer crowds, roads can be tricky and animals more dispersed, making the dry season ideal for game drives and unforgettable Tsavo West safari experiences.
