Lake Nakuru is one of Kenya’s two Premium Parks and is a bird lover’s paradise, it is also known for its spectacular bird populations
including water birds and the Black & White Rhinoceros which are the major attractions of the area. Discover the beauty of Lake Nakuru,
the wonderful birdlife and diverse wildlife including lions, rhinos and large herds of buffaloes and its striking and diverse landscapes. One
moment you find yourself only meters away from the lake shore, the next moment you are in dense forest amidst a troop of baboons, on a
clearing you suddenly encounter rare rhinos and on top of a sheer cliff you marvel at the birds’ eye perspective of the lake.

drives and be back at your lodge in time for Dinner. Overnight Elsamere Lodge (L,D)

Lake Naivasha is a beautiful freshwater lake, fringed by thick papyrus and surrounded by forests. Naivasha is also a wonderful birding
destination and boat trips on the lake are a great way to spend an afternoon or morning. And, in the evening, enjoy stunning sunsets;
with the haunting call of a Fish Eagle high over the lake bringing the day to a perfect end. Hell’s Gate National Park was named for its
pair of massive red-tinged cliffs which frame the parks active steam vents and bubbling hot springs. The park is home to a variety of
wildlife and birdlife.
