Day 1

Lake Naivasha

Lake Naivasha

Your adventure begins with a morning departure from Nairobi. We will pick you up from your hotel or at the airport, driving through the scenic Great Rift Valley to Lake Naivasha (approx. 2 hours). Upon arrival, check in at your lodge nestled along the lake’s edge and enjoy lunch with panoramic views of the water. In the afternoon, head out for a boat safari on Lake Naivasha—glide past pods of hippos, flocks of cormorants, and the iconic African fish eagle. Dock at Crescent Island, where you’ll take a guided walking safari among giraffes, zebras, waterbucks, and wildebeest. With no predators around, it’s one of the safest places in Kenya to walk with wildlife. Return to the lodge for dinner and a peaceful evening by the lake.

Mid-morning, embark on an optional guided hike into the Hell’s Gate Gorge, where you’ll discover narrow canyons, hot springs, and rock towers like Fischer’s Tower. Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park or return to the lodge for a relaxed afternoon. Spend the evening at leisure, watching the sun dip behind the acacia trees or enjoying a fireside drink.
