Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park

Your adventure will begin with a pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or JKIA, followed by a direct drive to Lake Nakuru National Park—an adventure in itself!

On the way, you will stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the escarpment.

You will then continue your journey and arrive at Lake Nakuru in time for lunch. Upon arrival, check in at the Sarova Lion Hill Lodge, freshen up and enjoy a hot lunch.

At around 4:00 pm, after some time to relax, you will set out for an afternoon game drive. The game drive starts at the park gate, where the camp is located.

Lake Nakuru National Park is famous for hosting thousands, sometimes millions, of flamingos, hundreds of black and white rhinos and the highly endangered Rothschild's giraffes. The park also offers stunning scenery and the chance to see the Makalia Waterfall.

After the game drive, you will return to the lodge for a hot dinner and an overnight stay.
