5-Day Lakes & Plains Mid Range Safari – Dream Wildscapes

Your journey begins with a morning pick-up in Nairobi, followed by a scenic drive toward Lake Naivasha. En route, pause at a viewpoint overlooking the dramatic Great Rift Valley—a perfect spot to take in sweeping, unforgettable views.

Arrive at your lodge by midday for a delicious lunch, then unwind in the serene surroundings or explore the lush grounds. In the afternoon, head out for a peaceful boat ride across the lake, where pelicans glide effortlessly, buffalo wade through the shallows, and playful baboons gather along the shore.

As evening falls, return to the lodge for a hearty dinner and relax by the campfire, soaking in the calm, starlit atmosphere of the lakeside.
