Day Trip
Depart from Nairobi at 5:30 am to arrive at Lake Nakuru National Park at about 8:00 am and proceed for a game drive. Lake Nakuru is the most famous of the Great Rift Valley lakes, renowned for its magnificent birdlife. It is a paradise for those who are particularly interested in ornithology and also offers the opportunity of seeing white rhinos, the rare Rothschild’s giraffes, large herds of buffalos and an abundance of various plains game. Sightings of leopards resting on the branches of acacia trees are relatively common but never guaranteed. The 40 square kilometer alkaline Lake Nakuru lies within the park and has been given the Ramsar Conservation Site designation. As you move further afield into the woods, you find black and white colobus monkeys and closer to the escarpment walls and rocky ridges, mountain reedbucks, dik-diks, rock hyraxes and klipspringers, making game viewing worthwhile. You will enjoy a game drive before returning to Nairobi in the late afternoon. There’s an option of carrying a packed lunch and having a picnic in the park or to stop at one of the lodges in the park for lunch.
