A safari to Tsavo East, Kenya's largest national park, known for elephants that appear reddish after dust-bathing in the park's iron-rich soil.
Tsavo East's vast open plains and red laterite soil give its elephant herds a distinctive rust-colored appearance after they dust-bathe - a visual signature unique to this park. Its scale means wildlife is more spread out than in smaller reserves, rewarding travelers who enjoy a wilder, less concentrated safari experience.
