Southeastern Kenya
Tsavo East & West
Kenya's wild, red-earthed wilderness
Together forming one of the largest protected areas on Earth, Tsavo East and West remain refreshingly uncrowded. Its famous red elephants — dusted the colour of the volcanic soil they bathe in — roam vast plains, while Mzima Springs offers a rare glimpse of hippos and crocodiles through underwater viewing chambers. Tsavo West's Shetani Lava Flow and dramatic Ngulia Hills add striking geological drama.
