Crescent Island Day Trip with Boat Ride from Nairobi

Embark on a day trip to Crescent Island from Nairobi. Enjoy a boat ride to the island, see hippos, giraffes, hyenas, pythons, and buffalo, and take in the views of the Great Rift Valley.
Start your day of adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Nairobi. After a brief meet and greet with your friendly and professional driver, depart for Crescent Island, stopping at the Great Rift Valley Lookout along the way for some amazing vacation pictures.

Here, a speedboat will be waiting to take you to the island. Along the way, witness thousands of birds, animals grazing on the shores of the lake, and the snoring of the heads of huge hippos.

For the duration of this trip, be accompanied by an expert guide who will guide you through the vegetation. After your 30-minute animal watching show, arrive at the island and enjoy the welcome of your friendly guides.

Be driven around the island and shown a lot of animals and vegetation. From the top of the hill, enjoy a 360-degree view across the lake from Longonot to Hell's Gate, across the Mau Escarpment to Eburu, and on to the Aberdares.

This location has more animals per acre than any other park in Kenya. The park is not closed to allow mainland wildlife to enter as they are losing their habitat due to development and the ever-growing population.

During the day, be able to observe hippos grazing and sleeping, giraffes and their cubs, hyenas that appear at night to hunt, many pythons, and groups of buffalo. Stop and enjoy lunch with incredible views of the park.

After spending some time on the island, your boat will pick you up again and take you back to the mainland, leaving for Nairobi with lots of memories.
