Beautiful lake with a spectacular flamingo scenery and many other animals (no elephants), but often very crowded!

Black & White Rhino, lions if you're lucky, leopard definately, - Lesser & Greater Pink Flamingo and myriads of other birds ranging from Pelicans to Weaver Birds. Good choice of lodge accomodation. As the main route circumvents the lake, you can't really get lost.

An easy to reach park to see big game. Doesn't have the bush vibe of Masai Mara but a great place to check your Big Five boxes.

An exotic park with more than just flamingos. Both Black and White Rhino are found here. There are huge herds of waterbuck, zebra, buffalo, the endangered Rothschild Giraffe and more.

Naukuru is the the best place to watch rhinos. The park is not large but apart from the lake magnificant birdlife (much more than the flamingoes) on and around the lake there are lots of rhinos ( about 120 I blelieve) which are well profected by the KWS. There are also some Rothschild Giraffes which have been hunted close to extinction in the original habitats.
The backdraw of Naukuru is the massive touris, especially on weekends.

Again a very beautiful scenic location. We saw mainly Flamingo, Pelican, and Rhino. Unfortunately we had problems with the vehicle in this park, so did not get to see as much of it as we should have. I believe others saw many more species here.
