Very few flamingos, apparently the water levels have increased over the last few seasons making it unattractive for the flamingo who have subsequently moved on.

Coming from 2 amazing days in the Masai Mara we experienced Lake Nakuru as quite small. Flamingos were observed on a big distance......But much wildlife!

We spent the least time here. The highlight was seeing a baby rhino nursing.

Solid option for a 1-day stop. Lodge was right in the park, and views from the rooms were absolutely spectacular.

Heavy rains made lake level to high to access flamingo sites but still plenty wildlife to see. Large Buffalo herds.

The driver did not seem to be very keen to show us the best or may be there is no "best" there. I am not sure which one is the reason for my disappointment for having chosen this one as part of my vacation package.

Lake Nakuru is more jungle then anything else. You can see rhinos, but less lions etc.
