Lake Nakuru lies in the volcano-strewn Rift Valley, one of a chain of 8 lakes which stretches the length of Kenya from Tanzania to Ethiopia. The 160km’s drive from Nairobi passes through highland farms of the Kikuyu people before descending the escarpment into the dramatic landscape of the Rift. Lunch is taken within the park followed by an extensive game drive which focuses on the bewildering spectacle of a million flamingo. The park is also famous for its various wildlife species. On return journey the tour passes via Lake Naivasha where tea is taken among the fever trees and where bird watchers will delight in the fantastic array of birdlife.
