Amboseli - Lake Naivasha - Lake Nakuru National Park

You will depart Amboseli after breakfast. Our destination today is Lake Nakuru National Park. You will stop for lunch on the way after the Great Rift Valley escarpment, and then proceed to the famous boat ride at Lake Naivasha. You will reach the park in time for an afternoon game drive. You can expect to see buffalos, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and lions that prey on them, as well as vast flocks of flamingos clustered near the lake shore.

Lake Nakuru is renowned for its high concentration of flamingos and is home to over 300 bird species. It is a sanctuary for both the black and white rhinos.

Also found in plenty are zebras, waterbucks, buffaloes, and warthogs. Leopards are sometimes seen sleeping on the horizontal branches of the fever trees. Dinner and your overnight stay are at the lodge overlooking the lake.
