Lake Naivasha Boat Ride & Crescent Island walking safari From Nairobi
Description
Lake Naivasha is a stunning freshwater lake located in the heart of Kenya's Great Rift Valley. Known for its rich wildlife and vibrant birdlife, it offers a peaceful escape from the hustle of Nairobi. Visitors can enjoy boat rides to spot hippos, exotic birds, and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes.
Crescent Island, a private sanctuary on the shores of Lake Naivasha, is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. The island is home to giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests, all roaming freely in a serene environment. Unlike many other game reserves, Crescent Island allows visitors to walk among the animals, providing an intimate and unforgettable safari experience.
With Gemfinders Safaris, you can enjoy a seamless and well-organized day trip to these incredible locations. From hotel or JKIA pick-up to guided tours on the lake and island, Gemfinders ensures a memorable and hassle-free adventure in one of Kenya’s most beautiful regions.
