Lake Naivasha

Lake Naivasha

 

Lake Naivasha is one of the primary drinking holes for buffalos, zebras, elands, impalas, waterbucks and other grazers, as well as a favorite place for hippos to cool themselves during the day. Take a night game drive on one of the surrounding private conservancies like Loldia and Oserian, and you will see these incredible animals slowly emerge from their wallowing sites in the lake to grass along the shores.

On your game drive, you may also see the other plains and forest fauna including the elusive leopard. We arrange every aspect of your adventure-seeking travel in Kenya, including your varied Lake Naivasha tour activities.

We recommend a morning or afternoon boating excursion around the lake or to Crescent Island so that a professional guide and ornithologist can help you locate and identify avi-fauna by colors, location and behavior.

Nature walks are another popular way to enjoy Lake Naivasha, and these outings get you close to some of the lakes smaller denizens.

We also recommend horseback riding, community visits, flower farm trip visits, tours of Elsamere and day excursions to Lake Elementaita, Hell’s Gate and Lake Nakuru National Parks.

Naivasha located in central Kenya is only 15 minutes flight or a two-hour drive from Nairobi.
