Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha Full-Day Safari Adventure


Escape Nairobi for an unforgettable full-day safari through Kenya’s spectacular Great Rift Valley, where breathtaking landscapes, remarkable wildlife, and scenic lakes combine to create an exceptional outdoor experience. This guided excursion takes you to two of the region’s most celebrated destinations, offering outstanding opportunities for wildlife viewing, photography, and nature exploration.


Begin your adventure at Lake Nakuru National Park, a renowned wildlife sanctuary famous for its rich biodiversity and beautiful lake surrounded by forests, grasslands, and rocky escarpments. The park is home to both black and white rhinos, along with buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, baboons, antelopes, and numerous other mammals. Lake Nakuru is also one of Kenya’s premier birdwatching destinations, where hundreds of bird species, including the park’s famous flamingos, create spectacular displays along the lakeshore. The surrounding woodlands occasionally reveal large rock pythons, adding another fascinating element to this remarkable ecosystem.


Continue exploring the park with visits to some of its most scenic viewpoints and natural attractions. Admire the sweeping panoramas from Baboon Cliff, visit the beautiful Makalia Waterfall, and stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint for breathtaking views across one of Africa’s most dramatic geological landscapes. These locations provide excellent opportunities to appreciate the region’s natural beauty while capturing unforgettable photographs.


The journey then continues to the tranquil waters of Lake Naivasha, where an optional boat safari allows you to glide across the freshwater lake while observing hippos resting near the shoreline and an abundance of colorful water birds. Complete the experience with a guided walk on Crescent Island Sanctuary, where you can safely stroll among freely roaming wildlife, including giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and other herbivores in a peaceful natural setting.


Led by experienced guides and featuring comfortable transportation throughout the day, this excursion offers a perfect combination of wildlife encounters, spectacular scenery, birdwatching, and outdoor adventure. Blending the beauty of Lake Nakuru, the serenity of Lake Naivasha, and the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley, this safari promises an enriching and memorable Kenyan experience.

It was absolutely beautiful! Tony is very kind and welcoming and our boat driver James knew a lot about the animals and knew how to spot them. It was only my friend and I but it was not uncomfortable at all. We will definitely come again. Already from the boat only can you see the animals on crescent island, its amazing.

We loved the experience and everything went as agreed, in terms of price and timing. Our guide Shelton was excellent, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the lake and its animals. We highly recommend them; they are very professional. Thank you so much! 🙏🏼😊

I had a very amazing experience riding the boat at this lake. I think I can recommend doing it in the evening so that you catch a glimpse of the Hippos and further enjoy the sunset as you circle the little island and having some chatter. Good thing about the boat owners they insisted on safety at all times and ensured all passengers wore the life jackets and briefly gave a safety education session.
