We had a wonderful day on this excursion to Hell’s Gate and Lake Naivasha. Our driver Peter arrived at our hotel early and gave us lots of wonderful information about the areas we were passing along the drive. He answered all of our many questions and got us everywhere safely and efficiently—no easy task given the amount of trucks and traffic on the roads outside of Nairobi! We then had a phenomenal bike ride and canyon hike in Hell’s Gate with our awesome guide Charles where we had several close encounters with animals like warthogs, giraffes, gazelle, and zebras. It was amazing! Next was a beautiful boat ride on Lake Naivasha to see dozens of hippos along with ample wildlife along the shores of Crescent Island before eating a delicious lunch al fresco and heading back to Nairobi with Peter competently at the helm while we relaxed after a long but wonderful day. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, physical day exploring one of Kenya’s beautiful regions!
