This morning you will depart early in your landcruiser with your private driver to Lake Nakuru National Park. Lake Nakuru can vary in size from 5 – 30 square kilometres and the park started life as a
bird sanctuary before becoming a National Park. The lake itself is shallow and strongly alkaline which attracts huge flocks of flamingos that dapple the shore line. It is now home to herds of zebra, waterbuck
and buffalo as well as the endangered Rothschild giraffe and other mammals. It is also possible to see prides of lions during game drives and its one of the best places in Kenya to spot leopard. The park
is an important sanctuary for white and endangered black rhino which can be seen resting in the shade of acacia trees on the lake shore. You will spend your time here on game drives in the park and enjoying
'sundowners' as the sun sets casting a golden refection across the lake.
