Supports a large number of pelicans and many other species of bird life. Not the best place to visit if you only wish to see large game.

Nakuru is quite a small park, but the lake is quite nice and there are plenty of rhinos, some lions and the occasional leopard. The water level of the lake has risen quite which has deducted the number of flamingos.

This is the best place to visit to see Flamingos in the Lake and known for white rhinos and tree climbing Lions.

Nakuru - Pretty. Pink. Perfect.

Lake Nakuru National Park is one of my favourite parks in Kenya. It offers so much variation on so little space.
One of the remarkable things with this park is the flamingos. The shore of the lake is often completly pink with tens of thounsands flamingos. When you get up in the highlands and look down on the shore, you see how numerous they are. Incredible!

I also like the variations in the landscapes of the park. From deep forest to the big lake, and also savannah.

Perfect park. HIGHLY reccomended

An excellent combination of birdlife and big wildlife especially the rhino's!

Lake Nakuru is an excellent combination of 'normal' wildlife, special birdlife and the rhino's. Scenery up was beautifull, you could see how pelicans are fishing together in a circle. Accomodation in both lodges was OK. Our guide was kind and knew a lot.

Not much wild life but was surprised to see a Lion with a kill and the a lone White Rhino being guarded by two rangers. As we were leaving the park what a surprised to be chased by a Rhino - that was the biggest highlight for me. Sad we could not see the famous Flamingo's as our timing was not the best.

Semi- arid but we sighted a leopard and three rhinos apart from flamingos (not many), zebras and other animals.

We went out on the lake. It was beautiful, with many birds and nice to be on the water. It was more civilized where we were where even a local wedding was going on while we were there. It was a perfect contrast to the Masai Mara safari.
