Safari summary
Adding to two memorable days at the game filled plains of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, this safari also takes you to Lake Nakuru National Park. Other than the bird population of different species and especially flamingos that carpet the lake in Nakuru, the park has its fair share of wildlife that include the endangered black rhino. From Lake Nakuru you will proceed to the neaby Lake Naivasha where you will enjoy a boat ride on Lake Naivasha that will take you to Crescent Island for a walking safari – one of the few places in the world where one can wander on foot amidst wild animals as there are no predators.
