With over 13,000 square kilometres, Tsavo East National Park is huge and impressive, and, since it was founded in 1948, one of Kenya’s oldest national parks. Cruise the outstretched savannah of the Yatta Plateau with its large groups of red elephants, observe some of the last remaining supertuskers and maneless lions. While you listen to the famous stories about the man-eater lions, you also get to see an amazing amount of other animals; four of the Big Five (minus rhinos) together with species like dik-diks, zebras, giraffes, yellow baboons, cheetahs, African wild dogs, elands, gazelles, gerenuks, hyenas, jackals, and over 500 species of birds.
