DAY TOUR- LAKE NAIVASHA AND HELL'S GATE PARK-WITH PARK FEES

The driver and guide were very nice, and the bike tour was also at a pleasant pace.

It may seem a bit pricey (we took a private tour) at first, but it is worth every cent. The organisation is flawless, the safaris (as you get to try morning, day and evening tours, with different perspectives) are perfectly run and the Salt Lick lodge is uniquely "out of this world" with close encounters to the animals when they come to drink. What brought these two days beyond our expectations is the incredible service and knowledge of Benjamin. He went out of his way to get us the best spots possible, was very informative and offered assistance even for matters outside the safari (like booking train tickets, which can be challenging for tourists !). His skills gave us the opportunity to encounter almost all the game, including lions. Because nothing is perfect and there is always a path for improvement, I should mention that prices for the extra (namely drinks) in the lodge are prohibitive. Of course it's far from everywhere, but it is beyond reasonnable.
