A 12-Hour Magical Tour

Lake Nakuru!!. I left Nairobi early in the morning and spent the entire 12 hours like a dream. Huge flocks of flamingos, pink lakes, and giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, rhinos - everything was so close that I forgot to hold the camera. The guide was wonderful. He explained very nicely in English, the name of the bird, the behavior, even when an animal is more active - everything. The car was comfortable as well. There wasn't a hitch in the whole trip. I'm really looking forward to this tour of Dallago Tours. Those who come to Kenya, do not miss Lake Nakuru for a day. A very good experience at this price.

Operator response

Thank you so much for this glowing review of your Lake Nakuru day trip with Dallago Tours! 🦩💖 You’ve perfectly captured why Lake Nakuru is a must‑visit – pink lakes, flamingos as far as the eye can see, and wildlife so close you forget to even raise your camera. That’s the magic of this park, and we’re so happy you got to experience it. It’s wonderful to hear that our guide made the trip even better – explaining bird names, animal behaviour, and the best times to see them in clear English. Knowledge like that turns a good game drive into an unforgettable one. We’re also glad the car was comfortable and that everything ran without a hitch from the moment you left Nairobi early morning until you returned. That’s exactly the kind of seamless experience we strive for. Thank you for saying that at this price, the experience was very good. That means a lot to us. And your message to fellow travellers is spot on: “Those who come to Kenya, do not miss Lake Nakuru for a day.” Whenever you’re ready for another adventure – maybe a longer safari or a visit to Amboseli – we’ll be here to make it just as magical. Asante sana and welcome again! — The Dallago Tours Team

A wonderful day at Lake Nakuru

This day trip to Lake Nakuru was beautiful and relaxing. We were really impressed to see thousands of flamingos on the shores of the lake. I also saw rhinos, giraffes and some lions during the safari. The view of the entire lake from the Baboon Cliff was fantastic. This trip is perfect for enjoying nature and wildlife in no time.

A Smooth and Relaxing Lake Nakuru Day Trip

Our day trip to Lake Nakuru was fairly comfortable. We left Nairobi in the morning and reached the park at the scheduled time. Inside the park, many birds can be seen around the lake, especially flamingos. During the game drive, the guide waited patiently so that everyone could take good pictures. The experience of seeing the white rhinoceros was different. Everything was visible from inside the car, there was no need to walk. As a one-day tour, time management was good and the whole trip went according to plan. If you want to see wildlife in a small trip, Lake Nakuru Day Trip can be taken.

I never thought I would see so much in a one-day trip.

The day after the Masai Mara safari, we booked a day trip to Lake Nakuru, and it was a great decision. We left Nairobi in the morning and arrived in the afternoon. As I entered the game drive, I was amazed to see so many flamingos - the lake was filled with pink. This is not the end; we also saw white and black rhinos, zebras, and even leopards. Guide Saleh patiently took the time to capture the animals. The peaceful environment inside the park and the chirping of birds have calmed the mind. Although it was only a one-day trip, it was a great experience. Both the car and the guide on Dallago Tours were comfortable and reliable. If you have a short stay in Nairobi, Lake Nakuru is definitely worth a visit.
