Lake Naivasha Christmas Holidays Packages
Naivasha
1 / 5




Two nights at Lake Naivasha over Christmas: hippos at dusk, Hell's Gate Gorge, and the Rift Valley at its most relaxed.
Lake Naivasha is the closest freshwater lake to Nairobi: about 90 km away and 1,800 metres above sea level, so the air is cool and fresh. The lake has a large hippo population, and a boat trip in the late afternoon often gets you within metres of them. Hell's Gate National Park, adjacent to the lake, has Africa's only walk-in wildlife experience. This package covers two nights at a lakeside property over Christmas, with a boat trip, a Hell's Gate gorge walk, and cycling in the park.
Safari Highlights
- Boat trip on Lake Naivasha at dusk: hippos, African fish eagles, and waterbirds
- Hell's Gate National Park: walk or cycle through Africa's only pedestrian-accessible game park
- Hell's Gate gorge: a dramatic slot canyon carved by volcanic activity
- Fischer's Tower: a volcanic rock column rising from the floor of the Rift Valley
- Short drive from Nairobi, easy for the Christmas long weekend
