Tour Plan: Day-wise Itinerary
Upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi, you will be greeted by our friendly safari guide who will brief you about your exciting journey ahead. Begin your drive towards Lake Nakuru National Park, passing through the breathtaking Great Rift Valley. Along the way, stop at designated viewpoints to admire panoramic vistas and capture stunning photographs of the valley floor and escarpments.
Arrive at your lodge or camp in time for a delicious lunch. After some rest, set out for your first afternoon game drive inside Lake Nakuru National Park. Watch in awe as the shores of the lake turn pink from thousands of flamingos feeding in the shallows. Keep your eyes open for both black and white rhinos, buffaloes, waterbucks, and playful baboons. The park is also home to tree-climbing lions and an impressive variety of birds.
Return to your lodge for a freshly prepared dinner and spend the night surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.
Wake up to the calls of African birds and enjoy a hearty breakfast before heading out for a full-day safari adventure. Start with a morning drive along the shores of Lake Nakuru, where you’ll witness an incredible spectacle of pink flamingos and large flocks of pelicans gliding over the water.
Explore the park’s wooded forests and open savannahs, searching for wildlife such as lions, leopards, Rothschild’s giraffes, zebras, hyenas, and warthogs. With over 400 bird species recorded in the park, birdwatching enthusiasts will be in paradise.
Pause midday for a picnic lunch at a scenic spot inside the park, surrounded by stunning landscapes. Continue your game drive into the afternoon, with opportunities to photograph wildlife against the dramatic Rift Valley backdrop. Return to your lodge in the evening, where a warm dinner and cozy accommodation await.
Start your day early with a sunrise game drive, a magical time when the golden morning light enhances the beauty of the park and animals are most active. This is your chance to spot predators returning from a night hunt or herds of herbivores grazing peacefully.
After breakfast at your lodge, check out and enjoy a relaxed drive back to Nairobi, arriving in the afternoon. Your guide will drop you off at your hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward journey, carrying unforgettable memories of your Lake Nakuru Flamingo & Rhino Safari.
