Review about Buffalo Springs National Reserve by TR
Many shorter roads where you could get close to game. Smaller park with much game.

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by Chotirot Chalaruk
Lake Naguru National Park is surrounded by dense communities but keeping wildlife free without disturbing them. It is easily to see buffalo seem to be it’s territory. We saw 4 of big five here except elephants. If flamingo was there, it would be a must visit.

Amazing Adenture
Our 10-day tour of Kenya was perfect for my son and me. The trip covered 4 major preserves - Samburu, Nakuru, Masai Mara and Amboseli, as well as, time in the rift area at Lake Naivasha / Crescent Island. We saw the Big 5 - Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Rhino and Water Buffalo - plus hundreds of other animals and birds. Elephants, Giraffe, Impala, Gazelle, Toppi, Wildebeest, Water Buffalo, Water Bok and others were in large herds including babies. White Pelicans and Flamingos were in massive flocks. Several days were in floored tent accommodations within the preserves so you could hear the animals at night (resort was fenced). In the Lake Naivasha area where there were no predators, Giraffe and Zebra crossed the resort yard at dusk. This tour covered much of middle and southern Kenya, so you saw varied landscape (Mt. Kenya and Mt. Kilimanjaro) vegetation and life styles besides the variety in wildlife.
Kenyans were lovely, and food was excellent with many fresh fruits and vegetables. Accommodations were excellent though smaller and more personal than the 5-star International hotels. Our guide had over 20 years in the business, so he knew where and when to go on game outings and was willing to make changes to suit us. We traveled in "shoulder" season about 3 weeks before high season so there were fewer crowds everywhere and the weather was great. Not too hot and not rainy.
This trip was a great balance of value and comfort for an African Safari. We have incredible pictures and memories! However, in our experience it is not a Luxury tour to American standards. There is a lot of time in the van over pretty rough roads, long days, much standing to view game and moderate walking. Since we arranged for 2 of us in a van which could hold 6 persons, I suggest that each party carefully review the size and type of transportation, road travel times and distances and confirm schedule details with your agent. Some days are longer than the materials indicate, and lunch is on the road not at the hotel. Best to travel with one suit case and light weight sun protective clothing. A camera with optical zoom is a must.
ENJOY A TRIP OF A LIFE TIME! FEEL LIKE YOU ARE IN A NEW VERSION OF OUT OF AFTICA!
