Overview

What this trip is.

Naivasha is fresh water rather than alkaline, which gives it fever-tree woodland along the shore, large hippo populations and an unusually rich bird list. A boat trip is the way to see it.

Most days add a walk on Crescent Island, a peninsula sanctuary with giraffe, zebra, eland and waterbuck and no large predators, so you can explore it on foot.

Highlights

What you get out of it.

  • Hippo at close range from the boat
  • African fish eagles and a long waterbird list
  • Fever-tree woodland along the shore
  • A walking sanctuary on Crescent Island
