We had a great night drive experience with seeing lions take down their prey and eat it alive until it finally died, but in general there wasn't a huge amount of wildlife to see at this place. They need to add more roads closer to water areas to see more animals. It's very dry and hot so the animals are probably at the water areas that vehicles do not have access to. I think we were lucky to have seen the lion experience. Without that it would have been pretty slim to see a lot of wildlife. It's a long drive especially if you don't get to have an amazing experience. The tent camp did have a lot of hippos in their water. I give this 4 stars only because of the night drive Lion experience. If that did't happen it would be a 1 or 2 stars max.

Fantastic scenery but the park has got quite much bush so a bit harder to see a lot of wildlife. I realy want to go back.

We just spent 1 day in tsavo, which may not be enough to get the whole impression. I was there already before, but it is worth it to stay a 2nd day, I would say. Really Nice jungle feeling while driving through very big green bushes and trees.

Prettier scenery, better purity of air, wider variety of wildlife. Smaller areas to cover.

Tsavo West was a very nice surprise. As it is quite small you get to see the animals quite quickly (if you are lucky).
Also it has a lot of leopards, so this increases your chances to see it.
The Park also has a protected area for a Rhino.
I loved the park and the lodge inside the park as well.

The various terrains were spectacular. There was lots of animals. It was interesting to see some of the variations in the animals. The elephants were reddish in color, smaller in size. The giraffes were a darker color.

Compared to Amboseli: it's harder to see animals here, but there aren't as many tourists and the park is enormous. It feels more like a safari, because you'll cover more terrain and see less tame animals. It's the opposite of Amboseli (in a good way) and Amboseli is the opposite of Tsavo (in a good way). I really enjoyed the diversity of going to both parks, they compliment each other perfectly!

I did not have great luck here, especially since I arrived at noon. I did like the guided hike at Mzima Spring.
