Adventure Vacation at Tsavo National Park Ensures Unbelievable Thrill

Kenya is a popular African nation that is located near the Great Lakes region. The country lies almost flat on the equator with an extensive coastal stretch formed by the Indian Ocean to its south east. Nairobi is the national capital and the country has a warm humid climate across the coastline. However, the savannah grasslands cover the inner stretches of the country. These savannah grasslands are most ideal for the country's exotic range of wildlife species, which include Wild elephant, Lion, Leopard, Impala, Giraffe, Hippo, Ostrich and Crocodile, etc.

Kenya is home to some of the renowned wildlife reserves, namely the Tsavo, the Maasai Mara, the Lake Nakuru and the Aberdares National Park, etc.

The Tsavo wildlife reserve covers approximately an area of 22,000 sq km, which makes it the largest wildlife sanctuary not only in Kenya but also one of the largest across the world. As such, an ambitious railway project that connects Mombasa to the interiors of the nation runs right through it. Thus, the park has been bisected into Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Park respectively.

The Tsavo East is slightly larger than the other fragment and it has usually a flat terrain. The Galana River flows across the dry plains of this part of the park. Other noteworthy geographical features include the Yatta Plateau and the Lugard Falls. On the other hand, the Tsavo West is more mountainous and much wetter with the presence of an array of natural swamps, including the Lake Jipe and the Mzima Springs.

Given this exotic range of natural topography and unbelievable richness of wildlife around the region, Tsavo National Park safari itself is a globally renowned adventure tourism destination. Scores of tourists from all corners of the world flock to this place round the year. As such, there are several exotic lodges located right in the middle of the unbelievable wilderness of the Tsavo wildlife sanctuary. These include

* Galdessa Bush Camp
* Finch Hattons Camp
* Ol Donyo Wuas
* Man Eater's Camp
* Voyager Safari Camp
* Lion's Bluff lodge and

These lodging facilities provide the rarest of the rare opportunity to make exotic first-hand experience on typical sub-Saharan wilderness. As such, danger from the wild beasts surrounding the vast park looms over one's head almost every now and then. This adds to the thrill of spending a vacation at any of these destinations within the typical African wilderness.
