Day 1: Nairobi to Lake Naivasha
Your safari begins with a morning drive from Nairobi to Lake Naivasha, one of Kenya’s most picturesque freshwater lakes. The journey takes you through the Great Rift Valley, with opportunities to stop at viewpoints and admire the expansive vistas.
Arriving at Lake Naivasha, enjoy an optional boat ride that takes you close to hippos and waterbirds, including pelicans, cormorants, and fish eagles. The lake’s calm waters and the surrounding acacia forests make it a haven for bird enthusiasts and photographers.
After the boat ride, settle into your lodge or camp, located near the lake, and unwind. In the evening, relish a delicious dinner as you soak in the tranquil ambiance of the lakefront.
Day 2: Hell’s Gate National Park
On the second day, head to Hell’s Gate National Park, a unique destination that allows visitors to explore its dramatic landscapes on foot or by bike. The park is renowned for its towering cliffs, geothermal springs, and diverse wildlife, including zebras, giraffes, gazelles, and buffaloes.
Cycling through Hell’s Gate offers an exhilarating way to immerse yourself in the scenery, while hiking through the gorge reveals stunning rock formations and hidden hot springs. The park also serves as inspiration for the landscapes in Disney’s The Lion King, adding a magical touch to your visit.
After a full day of adventure, return to your accommodation near Lake Naivasha for a relaxing evening. Enjoy a sumptuous meal and reflect on the day’s unforgettable moments.
Day 3: Lake Naivasha to Nairobi
