Lake Nakuru National Park Day Trip from Nairobi

You will be picked early in the morning from your hotel in Nairobi or from the airport. Pick up time is 7am and proceed to Lake Nakuru with a brief stopover at the great Rift Valley view point for photo taking. From here you will proceed to Lake Nakuru with another brief stopover at Nakuru town where you will buy your packed lunch from one of the hotels. Please note that the same can be bought from one of the hotels located in the park though the cost is always higher for the once in the park.

You will then proceed to the entrance of the park where you will pay for your park fees and start game viewing. Arrival at the entrance is estimated to be at 10-10.30am depending on the traffic conditions. You will then enjoy 4 hours of game viewing with lunch taken in the park as you spot the wild animals. Among the animals available at Lake Nakuru are the rhinos, buffaloes, giraffe ( the endangered species of Rothschild giraffe is found here), hyenas, different species of gazelles and antelopes, lions, leopard, different species of birds including flamingos which made the lake very popular a few years back though their numbers have reduced as a result of rise in water levels at the lake.

After game viewing, you will leave the park at around 3pm for Nairobi arriving at around 6pm. You will be dropped off at your hotel in Nairobi.
