Aberdare
After breakfast, travel south, crossing the equator to The Aberdare Country Club, nestled on the slopes of Mweiga Hill. After lunch and high tea, set off for Naro moru River Lodge, located in the forest on mountain slopes of the Aberdare Mountains at 7,000 feet. You can request to be awakened at night if your favourite animals show up. A herd of elephants might be just feet away, and if you are lucky, a leopard or large male lion might appear.

The lake is alkaline and recognized as one of the natural wonders of the world. You’ll arrive at the flamingo-fringed Lake Nakuru National Park in time for lunch and check-in. In the afternoon, we will embark on a comprehensive game drive of this scenic park, including visits to viewpoints.

naivasha
Naivasha is yet another area popular for birdwatching (over 400 species). There are no crocodiles in the lake, as the water is too cold for them due to the altitude, but there are several hippos. An optional boat ride can be organized at an extra cost. You will also visit Crescent Island, which can be described as a garden, an animal sanctuary or simply a little paradise. If you enjoy photography, then you will be overwhelmed by the beauty that Crescent Island holds.
Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp
