Our guide did not give us enough time there, we had to wait for him in the morning, so we left late.
We did not see enough of the park. Anyway - there were zebras, giraffes and birds - we did not see many, as we went there after Masai Maara.
To hire a bike you need to pay 10 USD extra. I would say you can skip it.

Overall good, but not extremely spectacular to be honest. Don't fall in the trap of paying additional for the Masai experience, not worth it.

Opt for a cycling tour. Can be skipped if doing Nakuru/Mara, as the gorges are closed.

One of the most beautiful walks i have been on - you can walk all the way through the park or hire a bicylce and cycle through, and see wildlife on the way - zebras, warthog, giraffe etc. The park is in an extinct volcano and so the rock formations are amazing. I would recommend this to anyone to visit!

Hell's gate is great, but not the right thing if you are looking for a "traditional safari". You should add it in a tour while visiting other parks.

It was very different and great to be able to walk in this park and get close to the animals.

Sure this is nice but after Masai Mara this is a bit empty

Beautiful relaxing boat trip and the fantastic opportunity to walk among giraffe and zebra etc in their natural environment. An experience of a life time to be naturally close, within feet of these amazing animals.
