Time permitting, you will also stop at the peaceful Makalia Falls in the southern section of the park.
Head to one of Lake Nakuru's premier safari properties, such as Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge, Lake Nakuru Lodge, or The Cliff. Here, you can relax and enjoy lunch while taking in views overlooking the national park and the lake landscape.
