"The early bird catches the worm!" We test this old
adage by embarking on an early pre-breakfast game

it's splendor as the drama of the wild unfolds amid
the freshness and beauty of the morning. We
spectacle as the grazers and hunters move on
unperturbed by our presence. We will head to the

exotic fish and a variety of bird species. The
greenery surrounding the springs is a welcome
contrast to the harsh terrain that forms the bulk of
Tsavo West.
