Itinerary

Your day begins with an early pick-up at 7:00 AM from your hotel, residence, or airport within the Nairobi area. You’ll then set off on a scenic drive toward Hell’s Gate National Park, with a brief stop to admire the breathtaking views of the Great Rift Valley.

Expected arrival at Hell’s Gate is around 9:00 AM, where you’ll kick off a guided biking adventure lasting approximately 2 hours. This unique park is among the few in Kenya where visitors can explore on foot or by bicycle. As you pedal through the park, you’ll have the chance to ride past freely roaming wildlife including gazelles, antelope, zebras, and giraffes — a memorable and immersive experience.

Around 1:00 PM, you'll head to Naivasha for lunch at Fisherman’s Camp (meals at your own cost). After lunch, at about 2:00 PM, you’ll enjoy a peaceful boat ride across Lake Naivasha to Crescent Island Sanctuary. Once there, you'll embark on a guided nature walk among giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, impalas, elands, and hippos. The sanctuary is also a haven for birdlife, such as fish eagles, ospreys, and jacanas.

The trip wraps up around 5:00 PM with your return journey to Nairobi, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel, residence, or airport
