After an active morning, head to the serene shores of Lake Naivasha, a freshwater lake known for its hippo pods and vibrant birdlife. Here, you’ll enjoy a boat safari across the lake, where you can spot African fish eagles, cormorants, and herons while floating near hippos basking in the water.
In the afternoon, visit Crescent Island Game Sanctuary for a guided walking tour. This private sanctuary allows you to walk among giraffes, zebras, waterbucks, and more—an unforgettable experience that brings you even closer to Kenya’s wild charm.
Your overnight stay will be at the beautiful Naivasha Simba Lodge, a mid-range safari lodge nestled along the lake’s edge. The lodge offers comfortable en-suite rooms, delicious meals, and panoramic views of the Rift Valley. After a full day of adventure, relax by the pool, watch the sunset, or simply enjoy the tranquillity of nature.
