There were more animals and water birds to be seen at Lake Nakuru. There were more greenery. Tall trees and more birds here. The scenic beauty of the lake above average.

One item checked off my bucket list but I want to do more safari!
The serene lake is the grazing ground for many herbivores, from white rhinos to zebras. I saw so much wildlife in two drives--before sunset and after sunrise, where were the best times to spot animals. The weather was gorgeous in Feb, although very cold in the morning so gear up and wear a down feather jacket and a scarf. The tour operator we booked with put us at a guesthouse inside the park. It's a no frill place but secure with fences around the property. The tour company also dispatched a chef to cook for us. The food was okay but we were not too demanding nor picky anyway. The mini van from the tour company was outdated and very bumpy on dirt roads and unpaved paths. I wish it was a Jeep with better suspension system. Our guide was knowledgeable and great at spotting animals for us to see.

Lake Nakuru is teeming with wildlife. Recent rises in water levels have reduced the number of flamingoes in the lake. The views from Baboon Cliff are still as spectacular as before.

Flamingos, of course, but also rhinos and baboons and an orange-headed blue lizard (probably a Kenya Rock Agama).

Lake Nakuru was very unique - this was the only park we visited with a lake as big as Nakuru. We saw a diverse range of animals, and the flamingos, storks and other water fowl were beautiful. The lunch we had at the lodge inside the park was very nice and it overlooked the lake, providing for a very relaxing and scenic meal. We stayed at Kigio Wildlife Camp while we visited the Lake, and that was a very nice location. We were able to take a nature hike, and walked amid a family of giraffes one afternoon - that was truly memorable!

Scenic
My first time to visit Lake Nakuru National Park was in 2012. It is rich in wildlife and vast scenic beauty. I didn't get to see the entire park due to time but will definitely come back so I can explore some areas like the Makalia waterfalls, which I didn't even know existed. You definitely need a good tour guide so as not to miss such spots and plenty of time on your hands. I also feel good binoculars and a great camera are a must if you want to immortalize such moments.
