Description

Experience Lake Naivasha with a boat ride, a walk on Crescent Island, and an optional horseback ride. Spot wildlife, enjoy scenic views, and learn about the lake’s ecosystem.
Begin your adventure with a relaxing boat ride on the shimmering waters of Lake Naivasha, one of Kenya’s most picturesque freshwater lakes. Glide past floating water lilies while spotting hippos lounging in the water, colorful birdlife, including fish eagles, kingfishers, and cormorants, and giraffes, zebras, and antelopes grazing along the shoreline.

Next, step onto Crescent Island, a private wildlife sanctuary and one of the few places in Kenya where you can walk freely among wild animals. Unlike traditional game drives, this intimate walking safari allows you to get up close to giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, and waterbucks, enjoy panoramic views of Lake Naivasha and the surrounding Rift Valley, and take stunning photos in a serene, crowd-free environment.

For those seeking a unique way to explore Naivasha’s landscapes, enjoy an optional horseback riding experience. Ride through acacia forests, open plains, and along the lake’s edge while spotting wildlife from a different perspective.
