Overnight in Nairobi.
After an early breakfast, drive to Lake Baringo. Our journey will take us out to the west of Nairobi and into the Great Rift Valley. The 280 km drive will take us about five hours, allowing for a couple of photo stops for great vistas, although not in the best light at this time of day. A short boat ride will take us to Island Camp where lunch awaits us and a little relaxation by the pool in the heart of the day before a late afternoon boat ride will take us to explore the shores of the lake. We may even catch a glimpse of an African Fish Eagle swooping on its prey in the magical evening light. And we may see crocodiles too, basking on the lakeshore. There will be great opportunities for bird photography.
Overnight in Lake Baringo.
After an early breakfast at the hotel, proceed to explore Lake Bogora National Reserve. Like Lake Baringo and Lake Nakuru, this lake also lies in the Great Rift Valley. An alkaline lake, it is home to large groups of flamingos, which feast on blue-green algae. Birds of more than 100 other species, including the Yellow-Billed Stork and the African spoonbill, are found on the lake, which is famous for its geothermically active and hot springs. You will have all day to test your skills with those big 500 mm or 600 mm lenses!

After breakfast at the hotel, drive to Lake Nakuru. On arrival, check in at the hotel and rest of the day at leisure. Lake Nakuru is famous for its spectacular birdlife- of flamingos, pelicans, cormorants, herons, grebes, and birds of prey. A veritable paradise for Ornithologists, Lake Nakuru is also good place to see large mammals – including Rhinoceroses both black and white, African Buffaloes, and Rothschild’s Giraffes. Lions too and leopards are often seen, and large troops of Olive Baboons wander about look down from the cliffs towering over the park. This makes for a beautiful overnight stop.
