Lake Nakuru Safari from Nairobi

Connect with your tour guide in Nairobi and drive to Lake Nakuru, a small park with over 50% of its area covered by the lake. It is located in the middle of the Rift Valley.
Spot a wide variety of animals, including the Rothschild giraffe, lions, white and black rhinos, and the leopard. Sightings depend on your luck. Birdwatchers also consider the park an ornithological paradise, and a myriad of both greater and lesser flamingos has made this lake their home.
Later, return to Nairobi to end the tour.
