3 Days Tsavo West and Tsavo East National Park

This short yet immersive safari takes you through Tsavo West, known for its dramatic landscapes, volcanic hills, lava flows, and natural springs, followed by the wide-open plains of Tsavo East, home to the famous “red elephants,” large lion prides, and the Yatta Plateau—the longest lava flow in the world.
