Description

Discover Lake Naivasha, a stunning freshwater lake in the Great Rift Valley, Kenya. Located about 90–100 km northwest of Nairobi, it is a popular weekend getaway known for its lush surroundings, calm waters, and vibrant ecosystem. Embark on a boat safari, the most iconic activity, allowing you to get close to large pods of hippos and see fish eagles hunting. Visit the Crescent Island Game Sanctuary, a moon-shaped peninsula (accessible by boat) where you can take a walking safari amongst giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests—there are no predators, making it safe for on-foot exploration. Enjoy bird watching in a paradise for birders, with over 400 species, including kingfishers, herons, and pelicans. Use the lake as a base for exploring Hell’s Gate National Park (famous for cycling and hiking) and climbing Mount Longonot. Visit Elsamere, the former home of Joy Adamson (author of Born Free), for high tea and a history of local conservation.
