Day wise Itinerary

• Day 1 : Nairobi - Lake Baringo

  Pick up from your Nairobi Hotel at 0800hrs and drive through Limuru Tea Farms, descending to the floor of the Great Rift Valley with a brief stop at the View Point. Mt. Longonot (which is of volcanic origin) and Lakes Elmentaita and Naivasha can be seen from afar as we proceed via Nakuru town to Lake Baringo. This is one of the two Fresh Water Lakes in the Rift Valley and a Bird Watchers’ Paradise, hosting over 460 recorded bird species and a number of hippos. Check-in and have lunch at the Campsite. Note: A resident ornithologist leads walks before breakfast and in the evenings.
  Dinner and overnight is at the Campsite.

• Day 2 : Lake Baringo-Lake Bogoria

  After breakfast, take a 1-hour Bird Watching Trip by boat to the Island to view more birds and hippos. On the Island, at an extra cost, you can organize short excursions to see the local tribe Njemps village and traditional dances, or a local Snake Farm. After that, you proceed to the nearby Lake Bogoria which is 1- hour away. This lake is a shallow soda lake hosting thousands of pink flamingos, a large number of other birds and the lesser kudu. Scalding Hot Springs and Geysers at the southern end of the lake spurt and steam their alkaline waters. The bubbling of numerous Hot Springs, hundreds of singing weaverbirds and a million flamingos feeding in the bluish water present a rare scenic beauty. Dinner and overnight is in a Campsite.

This is the Country’s only remaining indigenous Tropical Rain Forest that forms part of the dense rain forest stretching from West Africa, across Central Africa and in to the highland areas east and west of the Great Rift Valley. The Forest is world renowned as home to several hundred species of birds including rare snake-eating birds, insects, monkeys and other mammals as well as countless exotic tree species.

Dinner and overnight is at the campsite/budget hotel.
