Hot Deal: 2 Days Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha Short Tour

$190 per person, joining safari


Lake Nakuru offer sightings of baboons, birds of prey and scurrying hyraxes, as well as great views of the park. The national park covers 180 sq km and is home to warthogs, waterbuck, buffaloes, reedbucks, and the occasional leopard as well as white and black rhinos which were introduced to the park some years ago. Lake Naivasha, fringed by thick papyrus is almost 13 km's across, but its waters are shallow with an average depth of five meters. The waters of the lake draw a great range of game to these shores. Visit the Crescent Island. There is just one “Crescent Island Game Park”. It is simply one of the most beautiful parks in Kenya, often called Naivasha’s best kept secret.

Day 1: Nairobi - Lake Nakuru

Depart from Nairobi in the morning. You’ll enjoy a full day of game drives over the stunning terrain of Lake Nakuru Park. This is a place of great rocky escarpments, waterfalls, forests, wooded hills and of course, the lake itself. Besides the flamingoes, you’ll be treated to flocks of storks, herons, eagles, and pelicans. The birdlife is profuse but so is the land-based wildlife and you may see some of the larger species like rhino, buffalo and possibly lion. Lake Nakuru is compact which only increases our chances of spotting the great variety of animals that inhabit this very diverse park. This shallow Soda Lake has been famous for its flamingos but has also retained its reputation as an ornithologists’ delight with more than 400 species of bird found here. You may get out of the vehicle at the lake shore to get a closer look at the birds. The nearby cliffs offer sightings of baboons, birds of prey and scurrying hyraxes, as well as great views of the park. The national park covers 180 sq km and is home to warthogs, waterbuck, buffaloes, reedbucks, and the occasional leopard as well as white and black rhinos which were introduced to the park some years ago. Dinner and overnight at lodge.

Day 2: Lake Nakuru- Lake Naivasha

We’ll enjoy more bird and game viewing around the lake and through the environs of the park. Then, we’re off on a short drive to Lake Naivasha. We’ll get to experience a boat safari across the lake as we sail past hippos, birdlife and perhaps spot grazing zebra and antelope on the shore. But also keep an eye out for buffalo, eland, impala and occasionally… leopard. Then, we’ll take a special trip to nearby Crescent Island Game Sanctuary – a beautiful private reserve that is filled with animals, mostly gentle grazers. The Sanctuary’s naturalist will take us on a guided walking safari to view the herds of wildebeest, waterbuck, zebra, gazelle and more.Now it’s time to head back to Nairobi. We should arrive back in town toward the early evening and will bring you to your hotel, residence or the airport.
