Great day out seeing animals, cycling, rock climbing and chilling with hippos on a lake. - Really enjoyed my trip to hells gate and lake naivasha. Patrick was a great and friendly driver who took me to hells gate via the great rift valley. David took me on a cycle tour round the park. We saw zebra, giraffe and went on a hike around a gorge. Even stopped to do some rock climbing. Lunch was a great buffet followed by my trip with Joseph in lake naivasha where I saw some hippos. Patrick took me back and will recommend the tour to everyone. Thanks to all involved. ✌️🔥

Hells Gate by bike - Hells Gate has a stunning scenery and the best way to experience it is by bike. Our driver and guides were very friendly and knowledgeable and the boat tour can be recommended as well! It was a super experience 💯

Absolutely Amazing experience you will remember - Unique, fantastic experience and highly recommended!! How much we enjoyed the whole day. Good, friendly service and everything was top arranged! Tour even ran late because we really took the time to have a long dinner as we had a really nice group. The driver wasn't fussed about that but they all tipped him off. These people work hard and a lot for relatively little. We have seen so much wildlife and beautiful nature that we really live on a cloud.

Day at the Hell’s gate national park and Naivasha Lake - The drivers picked me at my hotel and were really punctual. We did the Hell’s gate national park and Naivasha Lake during the day. The driver took security consideration into account while driving. We lunched at a pretty touristic place but okay at least quiet were we could rest a bit. Overall, it took overall 11-12 hours to go and come back. I recommend !
