The landscape is filled with bushes and trees, which makes the sight bad.

Most of the park consists of semi-arid grasslands and savanna. A diverse wildlife that can be seen, including the famous 'big five'.

Very nice scenery, and if you drive around can normally find plenty of animals.

Vast but sparsely populated

Visited both Tsavo East and Tsavo West. They are quite vast, but sadly not a wide variety of animals are present. You see plenty of elephants and zebras, some giraffes, and that's almost it! We spent 2 days and only saw 2 lions in Tsavo East on our very last hour after a very frantic search for them (our guide had been told where to go and look for them!). There was the occasional monkey and one buffalo. This is all over 2 days! If you really want to see animals go to Maasai Mara, Amboselli, etc.

Pretty sparse with animals the evening and morning we went. It wouldn't have been worth it if it weren't for staying at the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary.
