Painted on a sprawling canvas of endless skies, emerald hills, liquid lava flows, palm-fringed rivers, teeming wildlife, and sparkling oasis set against the impressive backdrop of mile upon mile of cloud-shadowed African savannah.
Tsavo West is famous for the man-eating lions who, to date, carry a bizarre history long after they terrorized, maimed, and killed construction workers of the Kenya-Uganda Railway in 1898. Arrive at the lodge for lunch, followed by a visit to the Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary, and then a trip to the Mount Kilimanjaro viewpoint. Return to the lodge for dinner.
