Package Overview
Experience the magnificent wilderness of Kenya with our carefully crafted 6 Days Lake Nakuru Safari, rivaling popular routes like the 6 Days Tsavo East Safari in its spectacular wildlife viewing opportunities. This comprehensive Lake Nakuru Kenya Tour takes you through one of Africa’s most stunning landscapes, where flamingos paint the lake’s shores pink and rhinos roam freely against dramatic mountain backdrops.
Tour Highlights
Unlike traditional Safaris from Mombasa that focus solely on coastal parks, this journey brings you to the heart of the Great Rift Valley. Lake Nakuru National Park, a jewel in Kenya’s crown, offers a unique ecosystem that attracts wildlife enthusiasts from around the globe. While the Tsavo East and West Safari might be known for its vast savannah, Lake Nakuru presents an intimate setting where you can observe diverse wildlife up close.
What to Expect
Your Lake Nakuru Tour begins with a comfortable drive from Nairobi through the scenic Rift Valley. The park, comparable in beauty to destinations featured in the 6 Days Amboseli Safari, boasts both black and white rhinoceros, making it one of Kenya’s most successful rhino sanctuaries.
