Tsavo Classic Safari — 5 Days
Chyulu Hills, waterholes & the red elephant herds
Overview
A well-paced introduction to both Tsavo parks. Watch elephants troop to floodlit waterholes at Kilaguni Serena, then move to the open plains of Tsavo East for big herds and prides beneath the Yatta Plateau. Four nights, full board, at a comfortable mid-range price.
Stay at Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge in Tsavo West and Satao Camp in Tsavo East. A great-value pairing that still delivers the parks' signature scenery and wildlife.
