Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake in the Great Rift Valley, surrounded by papyrus swamps and acacia woodland. Boat safaris bring you close to hippos, fish eagles, kingfishers and colobus monkeys in the lakeside forests.
Crescent Island Sanctuary allows walking safaris among giraffe, zebra and wildebeest with no predators - a rare and memorable experience. Hell's Gate National Park nearby offers cycling and hiking beneath towering cliffs.
Naivasha is a popular stop on Kenya cultural and classic safari routes, offering relaxation between intensive game-drive days.
