5.00Had 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.

5.00Great tour, our guild David was excellent! He was early to pick us up, very informative on the history of Kenya and the park, took pictures for us, and went out of his way to make the experience a great one.
Great professional...

5.00Great 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!

5.00We 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!
If you have gone on...

3.00If you have gone on safari, I would not do this tour. We had done safari just prior to visiting Nairobi and this was honestly a waste of time to us. We wish we had spent our little time hanging out in the city. It was 5.5-6 hours of driving from Nairobi, followed by 11 miles of biking on a torturous bike (seriously, they should maintain those bikes better), a short hike thru a gorge where we were told we couldn't see the actual interesting part of the gorge because of risk of flooding, and then a lunch at a restaurant that did NOT overlook the lake. If you only have a few days in Nairobi - don't do this tour. If you have time, I would instead recommend staying a couple of nights at one of the lakeside accommodations such as Sopa Resort. If you don't opt for the boat tour, you don't even go to the lake! I'm not sure why they call this a Lake Naivasha tour. If you still want to see this area, I recommend hiring your own car, taking a land cruiser through the park, and having lunch somewhere lakeside. I wish the other reviews had been more honest so I could have saved one of my precious 3 days in Nairobi.
