Overview

Lake Nakuru National Park • Lake Naivasha
3 Days / 2 Nights
Private 4×4 Land Cruiser Safari
 

Safari overview

Two of Kenya's most beautiful Rift Valley lakes, one unhurried three-day journey. This private safari pairs classic wildlife encounters with sweeping landscapes, comfortable lodges and a peaceful lakeside finish, all just a short journey from Nairobi.

Your adventure begins in Lake Nakuru National Park, a sanctuary famed for its flamingos and rich birdlife. On your game drives, look out for both black and white rhinos, Rothschild's giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and lions. You'll spend the first night at Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge, set inside the park and overlooking the landscape, so the safari atmosphere stays with you long after the day's drive ends.

Next, you'll travel on to Lake Naivasha and Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort. Its landscaped grounds are home to giraffes, zebras and waterbuck that wander freely past your door. Set out on a boat safari across the lake, where hippos and abundant birdlife are often spotted, for a gentler, more tranquil contrast to the drives in Nakuru.

Your safari begins and ends in Nairobi and is operated privately, in a 4×4 safari Land Cruiser, so you can travel at your own pace.
