This morning we visit the Giraffe centre which offers the unique experience of hand-feeding these gentle giants at eye level from a raised platform, then we travel on to the Sheldrick’s Centre and get a chance to see the calves being fed and playing with the staff. We depart on the next part of our adventure that takes us from the hustle and bustle of Nairobi city to the small but beautiful soda ash lake located in the famous Great Rift Valley, named Lake Elementaita.

Elementaita & Nakuru
Lake Nakuru
The second great lake we visit on our tour is Lake Nakuru. The lake is situated in the middle of the national park to which it gives its name. Teeming with wildlife the park has so much to offer. Sometimes, when the water levels are low, the entire lake is covered in flamingos, turning the whole area pink. Lions, buffaloes as well as many rhinos call this corner of Kenya home and a game drive around the park is always rewarding. (fullboard)

Back at the camp, dinner is served and gives us the perfect opportunity to look back at our day and relive all those highlights. (Fullboard)

After breakfast this morning we drive across the plains in search of the Big Five and other plains game. The early mornings are one of the best times to view the animals as this is when they are their most active before the heat of the day sets in and after a mid-morning of relaxation and lunch, head out into the reserve for a chance to tick off some more animals on your “must see” list. Keep your eyes peeled as you hunt for the last members on your list. (Fullboard)
