Lake Nakuru, ‘Nakuru’ means dusty place in the Masai language. The big catch in this destination is the fascinating army of flamingos gathering in the lake forming a pink layer on the surface. After setting out from your hotel in Nairobi, a drive to Nakuru will take only 2 to 3 hours, following arrival you will embark on a safari inside the park to witness its numerous attractions.
Wildlife predominant in this location that you can’t miss include Rothschild’s giraffe, waterbuck, cheetah, leopard, lion, African fish eagle. Goliath heron, hamerkop, kingfisher, zebra, buffalo and many more. There are some hills visible in the park: Enasoit, Honeymoon and Lion hill ridge. Another spectacular site for tourists to feast their eyes on is a waterfall called Makalia Waterfall. Packed lunch will be served inside the park and finish the drive before evening. Thereafter drive back to Nairobi with good Kenya safari holiday memories.
