Lake Naivasha - Boat Ride on Lake Naivasha
A highlight of visiting Lake Naivasha is the boat ride. The one-hour boat tour typically allows exploration of the tranquil waters while observing wildlife. Hippos are frequently seen, as the lake hosts one of the largest hippo populations in Kenya. The boat ride also provides excellent birdwatching opportunities, with sightings of over 400 bird species around the lake, including pelicans, kingfishers, and herons. You might also spot other animals like giraffes and buffaloes on the surrounding shores, especially if you’re fortunate. Some tours also include a visit to Crescent Island, a sanctuary where you can walk among the animals. -
