Nairobi- Tsavo West National Park
You will have a morning departure from Nairobi, preferably around 8:00 a.m., to make the most of the day in Tsavo West National Park. You will arrive in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive. Tsavo West is the most visited section in the Tsavo National Park, offering many attractions apart from its wildlife. The foremost is the famous Mzima Springs, where up to 227.3 million liters of cool, crystal-clear water flows out of the ground through porous volcanic rocks. The water is believed to originate from Chyulu Hills via an underground river. Here, you will also meet the vast red-dust elephants, among other wildlife species such as lions, giraffes, zebras, and various antelope species. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge.

Full-Day Tsavo National Park
After breakfast, you will have a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch. One noteworthy place you will visit today is Roaring Rocks, which gets its name from the sound of the lions roaring when they are in the area. The views over Tsavo from the top of the 98m rock face are beautiful. You can expect similar views from Poacher's Lookout, a hill in the centre of the park. You can also visit (and climb) the Chaimu Crater Viewpoint, a volcano less than 200 years old and composed of black coke. This area is an excellent place to look out for klipspringer, a small antelope that is as agile as its Swahili name which refers to mbuzi mawe or mountain goat. In the southwest corner of Tsavo West National Park is Lake Jipe, which has the Kenyan-Tanzanian border running through it. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at the lodge.
