The 15 Best Tsavo Safaris

82 tours  ·  from $141 a head

Tsavo is enormous, red and much closer to Mombasa than to Nairobi, so where you start decides the trip. The 15 below cover East and West, the Mzima Springs day and the coast pickups, with prices and real driving times.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 55 reviews · from $200

Review of the Tsavo East day safari from Diani, with Big Five viewing, costs, timing, guides, transport, and practical booking advice.

“This excursion is not appropriate for tourist staying in Mombasa and surrounding areas. The park is 3 hours each way which allows for approximately 4 hours in the park. Tour operator stops at tourist trap on way to and from park. Guests are pressured to make a purchase and expected to eat in the restaurant before returning home. Poor communication by Viatour. We were told only USD accepted when in fact only credit cards are. No quoted amenities(water) were provided. Due to arrival and exit times you miss peak animal viewing time. This trip is too long for the amount of enjoyment.”

Review of a private 2-day Tsavo East safari from Mombasa or Diani, with three game drives, meals, lodging, park fees, and transport.

“We had a great private tour of Tsavo with our guide Charlie who was an excellent driver, navigating not only traffic to the park but also the terrain of Tsavo. The Voi Wildlife Resort was convenient with an amazing watering hole overlooking the dining area for wildlife viewing and the outdoor pool was a welcome relief from the heat. All in all, a great experience.”

“Safari at Tsavo east was an incredible exciting experience , we saw a lot of animals , elephants, giraffes, hippos, many kind of antilopes, impala, warthogs, ostriches, zebras , and at the end on our way back to the gate, a family of 7 lionesses and little lions laying on the side of the road , amazing !!! Katana was a great driver, but we missed a guide describing us what we were seeing , this was a little disappointing. Other than this , it was one of the best safari in our life !!”
