Mount Longonot Hike and Lake Naivasha Boat Safari
Your day begins with an early-morning pickup from your hotel or selected meeting point in Nairobi. Travel through the beautiful Great Rift Valley countryside toward Mount Longonot National Park.
On arrival, meet your hiking guide and begin your ascent through the volcanic landscape. The trail climbs steadily toward the crater rim, rewarding you with impressive views across the Rift Valley and surrounding countryside.
Once at the rim, take time to rest, enjoy the scenery, and take photographs. More experienced hikers can continue around the crater rim for an additional challenge, while guests who prefer a shorter hike can return to the park entrance after enjoying the views.
After the hike, continue to Lake Naivasha for lunch at a local restaurant before heading to the lake.
Step aboard a motorboat for a relaxing cruise across Lake Naivasha. Keep your eyes open for hippos in the water and African fish eagles soaring above the lake. The boat ride offers a peaceful contrast to the morning's hike and plenty of opportunities for photographs.
After the boat excursion, begin your return journey to Nairobi, arriving in the late afternoon or early evening.
