What To Expect

1

Hell's Gate National Park

Begin with 7am pickup in Nairobi, then travel to Lake Naivasha and Hell’s Gate National Park, with a break to get views of the Great Rift Valley from a scenic overlook along the way. Upon arriving in the park at roughly 9am, begin a 2-hour, guided bike/walking tour: watch for beautiful rock formations, herds of Thompson’s gazelle, eland, zebra, giraffes, warthogs and hartebeest as you ride. Keep an eye on the sky throughout the tour, as Hell’s Gate National Park is home to more than 100 species of birds, including Verreaux’s eagles, augur buzzards, vulture, and swifts. Continue on foot into the park’s distinctive gorges, where narrow passageways and caves are sunk into sedimentary rock. After a 1-hour walk, depart for Lake Naivasha, then head to Naivasha Marina camp for lunch (own expense). Note: If you cannot bike, you can tour the park with the vehicle, the driver/guide is happy to stop for photos of wildlife and scenery at no extra cost

At 4pm, begin the return trip to Nairobi, and finish the day with drop-off in Nairobi at roughly 6pm.

    Had an amazing time at the national park, biking around and hiking the Gorge. Unique experience and truly an unforgettable safari. The boat ride on the lake was well worth it on the way back.

    Great professional experience. Definitely worth it if you want to see some animals while doing some physical activity. David was a great driver and host and organised everything. Great value for money with all transfers, bike rentals, entry, and guides included

  • Would go again!

    We had a great day with Patrick (our driver) and Reagan (our biking and hiking tour guide)! Both were very knowledgeable about the area and Reagan did a great job helping us with our bikes when we needed it. He was also very patient, letting us go at our own pace (of which mine was very slow on the uphill bike ride back 😅). Both were very professional!
