Description

Tsavo West National Park is a remarkable destination that offers an abundance of extreme and striking natural features. From its diverse terrain and vibrant colors of the desert, sky, and springs to the exciting encounters with wildlife, this park provides an unforgettable experience.

Spanning across vast savannah plains interrupted by dark volcanic lava beds, Tsavo West National Park showcases unexpected panoramas and ancient baobab trees. The park also boasts lush oases sustained by underground springs, creating a picturesque contrast to the arid grasslands.

When exploring the park, you have the opportunity to witness Africa’s famous “big five” animals, such as lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos, as they roam through the dense foliage in search of food. Tsavo West is particularly renowned for its population of Tsavo lions and herds of red dust elephants, which contribute to Kenya’s largest elephant population.

While observing these magnificent creatures, keep an eye out for other wildlife species. Giraffes gracefully reaching for treetop leaves, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos wandering the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary, and the endangered creatures protected within the sanctuary’s boundaries.

Moreover, Tsavo West National Park is home to a plethora of smaller delights, including the bushbaby, hartebeest, dik-dik, lesser kudu, gerenuk, and impala. As you journey through the park with a knowledgeable guide, you will also encounter playful yellow baboons and vervet monkeys swinging from the park’s acacia trees.

The park continues to mesmerize with its diverse attractions. Transition from the arid grasslands to the green oasis of Mzima Springs, a captivating location that receives over 200 million liters of crystal-clear water daily. This life-giving spring attracts a wide range of wildlife, including elephants, hippos, crocodiles, zebras, and various bird species. Nature trails and an underwater observation platform allow for an up-close and personal experience with the inhabitants of this vibrant ecosystem.

Tsavo West National Park also offers thrilling opportunities for rock climbing enthusiasts. Scale heights such as Kichwa Tembo, the Great Tsavo Chimney, or the Ivory Tower on Elephant Rock, and be rewarded with breathtaking views of the surrounding savannah and, on a clear day, a glimpse of Mount Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped peak in the distance.

In addition to wildlife encounters and stunning landscapes, Tsavo West National Park presents other attractions. Discover the mysterious Shetani Lava Flow, a hardened lava formation named after the Kiswahili word for “devil.” Birdwatchers will delight in the park’s abundance of over 600 bird species, including migratory birds and unique finds like the golden-breasted starling and orange-bellied parrot. For those seeking tranquility and sightings of eagles and birds of prey, a visit to the Roaring Rocks offers an easy climb and a peaceful environment.

Tsavo West National Park truly offers a parade of continuous surprises, where extreme natural beauty, diverse wildlife, and thrilling activities await. With its captivating variety, this park guarantees an extraordinary experience for every visitor.

Great Safari with Meektrails

We recently completed a 7 night safari with Meektrails and had a great experience. Our tour was originally organized by Charles who was very responsive and able to customize our itinerary to our wishes and budget. We spent time in Maasai mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo and enjoyed all of them. The land cruiser was in excellent condition, with a pop-up roof, huge roll down windows, comfortable seats, and working power plugs.Our amazing guide was Anthony who really elevated the experience and allowed us to have an incredible Safari. From the start Anthony was so friendly and open, and made it clear his aim was to make our experience as great as possible. He was absolutely amazing at finding animals and getting us as close as possible to all different animals. We saw everything we had expected and more including cubs and young of nearly every species. He knows all the roads, routes, and small trails which allowed us to get very up close experiences. He also seems to know everyone, from other guides to park rangers which helped us learn about and find the location of animals. He was even also able to organize an early entrance to a couple of the parks to allow us to see sunrise in the park with the animals.Throughout the trip Anthony always double checked the planned schedule with us and offered many suggestions for changes or additions to the plan which really improved the trip. It's clear he has a lot of experience, and local knowledge which allowed him to adjust the itinerary in the best way possible. It's also clear he cares greatly for the local communities and organized for us to give our unused lunch packs to local children rather than seeing the food go to waste.We greatly appreciated our time with Anthony and thanks to him the safari exceeded all our expectations. As for Meektrails the booking process was responsive and easy, and everything was organized as discussed with no hitches. We would certainly organize another safari with Meektrails if returning to Kenya.

Best guide, best company

Our 7-day safari with Meektrails Safaris in Kenya with our guide Anthony was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, the experience exceeded all expectations. Our guide Anthony was phenomenal—he was knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to ensure we saw everything on our wildlife wishlist. Thanks to his incredible skill and dedication, we had close encounters with the Big Five, witnessed breathtaking landscapes, and even saw species we hadn’t expected. His passion for wildlife and his deep understanding of the ecosystem made every game drive an adventure filled with learning and excitement. The accommodations and planning by Meektrails were seamless, making the whole journey stress-free and comfortable. Whether it was sunrise safari or tracking animals, every moment was magical. If you’re looking for a safari company that delivers an exceptional experience with a personal touch, Meektrails Safaris is the one. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable first safari

We chose MeekTrails for our first family Safari in Kenya and it was a great choice. We built with them a program that perfectly fitted to our group (with people of different ages 11-60). Our five day safari brought us to Amboseli, Nakuru Lake and Masai Mara Nationals Parks and our fantastic guide Njinu made us see a lot of wild wonderful animals, included the big five! He could always find the best spots that made our experience unforgettable. The Sopa Lodges we chose were clean and comfortable, with a lot of services and pools.We strongly recommend MeekTrails if you’re thinking about going to Kenya to make a safari to discover african wikdlife! 🐆🐅🐘🦒🦏🐃

A week we never will forget

First of all: a big Thank You to the whole team of Meek Trails. From the first contact with Diana until the last drop off at the hotel in Nairobi everything was perfect. Especially Philip: he was calm during driving, told us everything we should know about Africa, the animals, the plants and how to behave in Kenia. Everyday we felt that he was not only doing his job very well, but he was really loving the nature, the big animals and the small ones, specially the moorhens. He was patient, waited with us for the best moments, so we were very lucky to see all the animals we had hoped to see and were able to shoot beautiful photos. We saw the Big 5, the Ugliest 5 and many others and many birds. The days with Philip were full of seeing things and many laughters. The chosen hotels were all beautiful, the meals very good. At last: Thank you Meek Trails for that beautiful and unforgettable surprise at my birthday, when the whole team of the Zebra Camp and a Masai-Group were singing and dancing for me. Diana and Philip: Asante sani - we will miss you!
