Lake Nakuru National Park to Lake Naivasha

This day will start with an extensive game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park. This alkaline lake is home to millions of pink flamingos that cover the lake’s shorelines. The lake ecosystem is also a habitat for over 400 species of birds. This is one of the few places in Kenya where you can see both the white and black rhinos at the same place, as this park is also a rhino sanctuary. Later, you will exit the park and drive to Lake Naivasha, a beautiful freshwater lake, fringed by thick papyrus, almost 13 km across. The lake draws a great range of game to these shores. Giraffes wander among the acacia, buffalo wallow in the swamps, and colobus monkeys call from the treetops while the Lake’s large hippo populations sleep the day out in the shallows. You will have an afternoon boat safari at Lake Naivasha, where you view exotic birdlife and hippos amid the serenity of this freshwater rift valley lake. Later, you'll proceed on a guided walking safari at the Crescent Island. Mid-range lodge located near Lake Naivasha (Naivasha) All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

After breakfast, you'll head to the park for your full-day game viewing. Your Kenya adventure safari today consists of panoramic views, large herds of elephants walking slowly against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, buffalo bathing in the swampy areas, giraffes feeding on the treetops, zebras, warthogs, lions, and more wildlife. You will have your picnic lunch under a tree's shade and continue scouring this semi-arid park for more of its wildlife. In the evening, when the clouds open, the snow-capped highest peak of Mount Kilimanjaro is more visible and gives a fairytale view as you marvel at the elephants roaming at the foot of the Mountain. Amboseli National Park is one of the best places in Africa for getting up close to free-ranging elephants. The population is so robust here that sightings are guaranteed! As always, your driver-guide will be at your disposal for even more game viewing drives.

Amazing

It was a great experience — the service, the kindness, the knowledge of the guides, the punctuality, the hotels. On my next trip to Africa, I would definitely choose Rochar African Expedition again. Jhon, Simon, and Luis are the best

Wow

It was the reviews on this page that helped me to book a safari with Rochar Africa so it is my pleasure to write this. First and foremost, at the centre of it all was Phinorah who put together our Maasai Mara itinerary. She was amazing from start to finish. I was most impressed by her attention to detail and the fact that she worked around the clock to provide us with the best options to suit all our needs. She was kind, professional and, unassuming. What an unforgettable experience of a lifetime. Special thanks to Jonathon and Denton our safari guides too. 10/10 experience. Majestic in every way.

Excellent Safari Experience

From our first communication with Phinorah to our final few moments with Jonathan, our guide/driver, our seven day safari was excellent. Our accommodations at the four locations where we stopped were exceptional. The game drives in each park provided many opportunities for seeing many animals of every kind.
