Set on the floor of the Great Rift Valley, Lake Nakuru National Park is one of Kenya’s best places to see both black and white rhinos, living under close protection. Rothschild’s giraffes, lions and buffalo roam the acacia woodlands, while the alkaline lake draws flamingos and pelicans in changing numbers. Its compact size makes every game drive rewarding.
