Lake Nakuru

Lake Nakuru
National Park

This safari is normally combined with the Masai Mara Safari because of the short distance between the two national parks, about three hours by car.

We generally depart early in the morning, at about 7am from the Masai Mara National Park to the Lake Nakuru Reserve.

Once inside the park you will head in the direction of the booked lodge and depending on your arrival time, you will have a morning mini game drive.
Check-in of the rooms and short rest.
In the afternoon, game drive until sunset, about 18:30, and then return to your lodge for dinner.

This national park was established in 1961, around the lake of the same name, mainly to protect the very large colony of pink flamingos.

In addition to the flamingos, the white rhinoceros was introduced in 1988 to protect the species. In this reserve, it is possible to observe both white and black rhinoceroses and many other savannah animals.

 

The safari I organise includes:

- Entrance fees to parks

- Accommodation in lodges or tented camps full board excluding drinks

- All transfers will be made in a 4X4 Jeep.

- The Jeep will be equipped with bottled water

- You will be accompanied by professional licensed drivers who are knowledgeable about the place and the animals that inhabit the Savanna.

 

Information and equipment

It is very important to carry your passport with you on any trip.

For safaris, it would be advisable to be equipped with sunglasses, headgear and sun cream, and for those who want mosquito repellent (inland there are usually not too many mosquitoes).

For those who need it, a small travel pharmacy is available.

During your stay in the lodge or tented camp, there will be times when the power will be out, so it would be a good idea to charge all your electronic devices before your trip, a power bank and/or spare battery for your devices are always recommended so you don't find yourself in unpleasant situations.

Internet connections... To always find good coverage, it is recommended to buy a Kenyan Sim card (Safaricom) so that you can use your mobile phone at any time.

Bring your swimming costume with you. There are swimming pools inside the lodges.
