Lake Nakuru

• Travel, Lifestyle

Early morning pick-up, then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park, through the rift valley floor, lies lake Nakuru National Park. It used to be known as the pink lake for its flamingos, it's home to both the greater flamingo and lesser flamingo. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harbouring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos, but the flamingoes, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times there may be almost 2million flamingoes in the residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lake shore. Arrive in time for lunch then have an afternoon game drive. Evening return to Nairobi.
