Very touristic, very little animals, maybe it is too big, but compared to the others it's like being in the desert....

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.

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

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

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

Since we had more time in Tsavo east so we had a slightly better wildlife experience here compared to Taita hills.
Also, we really enjoyed our stay at Ashnil Aruba lodge.

I had a lot of luck spotting birds. This was a great place for elephant viewing.
