overview

In 1898, long before Tsavo National Park was created, a pair of maleness lions terrorized the area. They reputedly killed 135 railway workers who were building the Kenya-Uganda railway. These man-eating lions dragged men from their tents, despite the thorn fences (bomas) built to keep them out. The maleness lions evaded traps and ambushes and were finally shot by Lt. Col. John Henry Patterson.

Tsavo East National Park is 333 km south-east of Nairobi, and 173 km north-west of Mombasa. Its relative closeness to the beaches and tourist attractions around Malindi and Mombasa make it an ideal one-day wildlife safari destination for those who do not want to stay overnight.

Tsavo East National Park is a natural area of flat, dry plains, with thorny bushes and swampy marshland near the river. It is teeming with diverse Kenyan animals including large families of giraffes, gazelles, heartbeats and zebras, as well as the “Big Five” must-see animals – buffalo, African elephants, lions, rhinos and leopards.
