Itinerary
3 Hours
Meals: Lunch & Dinner
7:30 – Hop into your private 4 x 4 Safari Jeep for the easy ride to Lake Nakuru National Park. Along our route, we’ll take in the farms of the central highlands in the early light and enjoy the dramatic landforms of the Rift Valley escarpment.
Arriving at Lake Nakuru you’re certain to be delighted by the park’s natural beauty – waterfalls, acacia forests, the alkaline lake, and rocky peaks.
The birdlife here is abundant – pelicans, storks, herons, and sometimes you’ll even see bright, dazzling flamingoes, adorning the lakefront.
But we’ll also be looking for lion, leopard, buffalo, and rhino on the plains and in the wooded areas.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
Today is a triple-threat – 3 parks! We’ll take a last game drive through Lake Nakuru on the way to Lake Naivasha. This is another Rift Valley lake, but the wildlife and birds found here are a bit different owing to the lake’s freshwater.
You’ll see hippos bathing on your sailing safari across the lake. While nearby, over on the shore, look for buffalo, eland, and grazing antelope.
Our third reserve on this compact safari is nearby Crescent Island Sanctuary. We’ll take a quick trip to this small but delightful park and enjoy a guided walking tour past wildebeest, waterbuck, zebra, and gazelle. This is the best way to get close to these gently grazing animals.
Now it’s time to head back to Nairobi and we’ll take you to the destination of your choice by the early evening. We’ve enjoyed lots of landscapes, colors, and especially wildlife in our 2-day adventure.
