Trip Overview
Escape Nairobi for a full-day adventure combining the dramatic landscapes of Hell’s Gate National Park with the peaceful waters of Lake Naivasha. The journey takes you through the Great Rift Valley, where sweeping viewpoints, towering cliffs, volcanic formations and open grasslands create one of Kenya’s most distinctive day-trip experiences.
At Hell’s Gate, explore the park by safari vehicle or enjoy an optional cycling experience along wildlife-viewing trails. Continue to Lake Naivasha for lunch and an optional boat safari, with opportunities to see hippos, waterbirds and wildlife along the shoreline.
