No flamingoes, but did see a black rhino and hippos and lions. Did not see Rothschild's giraffes as road was closed due to bad weather

Hippos are in the lake. The lake provides a beautiful view. There are many different birds on the lake as well.

We saw Rhinos and lots of monkeys.
Small park, we spent 2-3h there.

Lake Nakuru felt like being in Jurassic Park - hugely diverse landscape, and we would've enjoyed our time on Safari even without seeing any animals. The scenery around the salt water lake is breathtaking, the forests around it are incredible and the sometimes hilly terrain means bumpy but fun rides in the Landcruiser! The Park bursts an amazingly diverse fauna within quite close proximity. The terrain ensures animals have plenty of space to roam off the paths where vehicles drive, which makes for a more "natural" experience.

The park is experiencing the effects of global warming with a lack of flamingos.

This is the place to see rhinos plus other wildlife. The park is smaller and surrounds part of the lake. Birding is also nice here.
