All arrangements including hotel, game drives, food arrangements, personalised s (Read More)ervices by İmara Destinations was excellent We started our trip from New Delhi to Nairobi via Mumbai by Indigo flight. Dennis was there to welcome us at the airport early in the morning. We started off to Samburu, had lunch on the way had a relaxing evening at the resort. We had a wonderful game drive next day at the samburu national reserve, saw a leopard, zebra, giraffe, ostrich, etc from close quarters. We went to ol Pajeto conservancy, fed blind rhino, saw chimpanzees and other animals including two horned rhinos, proceeded to Nakuru saw pelicans, flamingos etc there, Masai Mara we stayed for three nights and had two game drives. Could see lots of lions, cheetah with its prey as well as a pregnant cheetah, zebras, giraffes etc. we also saw ostriches and other animals and birds there. We then went to Naivasha had a boat ride with walk and see crocodiles and hippos and crescent island visit walked with zebras, impalas and wildebeest but couldn’t see giraffe there. Due to floods last year many parts of crescent island got submerged so could only see part of the island. Our last destination was Amboseli park with game drive there. Overall it was a highly satisfying and interesting experience. İmara Destinations did a very good job of taking us to the exact spots where animals would be seen uninterrupted. Well done İmara Destinations. Thanks to Dennis and Murray for it

Just went for 8 day safari with James and Wild Portraits Safaris...it was spot o (Read More)n perfect. Reasons 1.Clear communication and replies always comes very quickly on WhatsApp. 2. Very genuine with suggestions and doesn't do things as a job or formality. 3. James is very knowledgeable. 4. The enthusiasm and passion shown by James was just so infectious. 5. The planning of itinerary takes care of all the finer details. 6. They really take care of your focus and they don't try to sell anything you are not interested in. For example we skipped the village visit because we didn't see value in it. 7. Quite flexible and adjusts as things progress.

The entire trip was handled with extreme professionalism by both Janet and our g (Read More)uide Bonnie. We got to see the Big5 within 3 days of our itenary and more on the next days. Janet was very thorough with our itenary and helped us throughout and Bonnie knew all the best spots on all of our game drives. We didn't feel rushed throughout our tour, because it is designed very well to accomodate enough rest. 10/10 recommend

Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit Lake Nakuru National Park is from June to September and January to February, during the dry seasons. Wildlife viewing is excellent, and roads within the park remain accessible. Temperatures stay between 12°C and 26°C. March to May brings the long rains, when the park becomes lush but some tracks turn muddy. October to December offers short rains and vibrant landscapes with fewer tourists.

Ideal Duration & Popular Itineraries
Lake Nakuru safaris usually last 1 to 2 days, often combined with Masai Mara or Amboseli. Popular formats include:

  • 1 Day: Full-day game drive and birdwatching along the lake.
  • 2 Days: Adds sunrise and sunset drives with overnight lodge stay inside the park.

Top Things to Do
  • Spot flamingos and pelicans that gather along the shores of Lake Nakuru (seasonal, depending on water levels)
  • Enjoy game drives to see lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and buffalo
  • Visit the Rhino Sanctuary, home to both black and white rhinos
  • Climb to Baboon Cliff or Lion Hill for panoramic views of the lake and park
  • Go birdwatching, with over 400 species recorded, including eagles and storks
  • Visit Makalia Waterfall for scenic photography and short nature walks

  • Safari logistics handled: Packages include park entry, 4x4 vehicles, and licensed guides for safe and structured game drives.
  • Flamingo and wildlife coordination: Packages plan visits based on current flamingo migration patterns and animal movement.
  • Stay arrangements: Packages secure lodges inside or near the park, offering direct access to sunrise and sunset drives.
  • Transport convenience: Packages arrange transfers from Nairobi or neighboring parks, as public transport does not operate inside the park.
  • Combined circuits: Packages efficiently link Lake Nakuru with Masai Mara and Amboseli for a complete Kenyan safari route.
  • Better value: Inclusive packages with meals, permits, and guided safaris offer better pricing and safety compared to independent travel.
