Lake Nakuru National Park - Lake Naivasha

Today will start with an extensive game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park. This alkaline lake is home to millions of pink flamingos that cover the lake’s shorelines. The lake ecosystem is also a habitat for over 400 species of birds. The park has cliff tops that serve as viewpoints for seeing lions, white and black rhinos, waterbucks, reedbucks, warthogs, and buffaloes. This is one of the few places in Kenya where you can see both white and black rhinos in the same place, as the park is also a rhino sanctuary.

Later, we will exit the park and drive to Lake Naivasha, a beautiful freshwater lake fringed by thick papyrus and almost 13 km across. The lake attracts a great range of wildlife to its shores. You will have an afternoon boat safari on Lake Naivasha, where you can view exotic birdlife and hippos amid the serenity of this freshwater Rift Valley lake. Later, proceed for a guided walking safari on Crescent Island.
