Accommodation

Ashnil Aruba Lodge lies in the heart of Tsavo East National Park in Kenya. The lodge features 46 rooms and six tents. Its location is superb, just a couple of hours from the coast of Mombasa, a five hours leisurely drive from Nairobi, and is located on the banks of Aruba Dam which was built in 1952 as a sport fishing recreational point in the park.

Several watering holes nearby attract wildlife and spotting animals is easy because the park lies flat with savanna grassland.

Location

This safari will take you to explore Tsavo East National Park in Kenya.

Tsavo East National Park

Both Tsavo National Parks are roughly kidney-shaped and 7,930 sq. mi (20,812 sq. km) and is bisected in the middle by the Mombasa road. For administrative convenience, the part north-east of the road is called Tsavo East with headquarters near Voi and measures 11,747 sq. km and the part southwest of the road are Tsavo West with the wardens’ offices near Mtito Andei and measures 9,065 sq. km.

Overall, this famous park covers a vast section of the 200 miles of thorn scrub, spiked with bulbous trunks of baobab trees, that separate the tropical vegetation of the coast from the great central plateau of the African continent.

Tsavo East is less hilly with the exception of the dramatic line of the Yatta Plateau which rises almost parallel to the Mombasa road. Beyond this escarpment, to the east, is a seemingly endless expanse of low lying semi-desert, spiked with thorn bushes, most of which you can only visit by special permission of the Park Warden.

All roads north of the Galana River, which cuts across Tsavo East, are closed to the public. Lugard Falls and Crocodile Point on the river are worth a visit, though the best places to see animals are unquestionably Aruba. The former is a great hump of rusty-colored rock overlooking a huge waterhole making a natural amphitheater. At the end of an exciting day, you can always relax at the Voi Safari Lodge, the Tsavo Safari Lodge, Ashnil Aruba Lodge, Voi Wildlife Lodge, and the famous Crocodile Camp.
