Unforgettable Experience in Nakuru Lake. - We had a great experience which would not be possible without our guide Julius - very well prepared, knowledgeable, profesional guide who from the very beginning made this tour special.
On the way to Nakuru, he shared with us stories about Kenyan history, tradition, customs and everyday life so we could better understand people we met. In the park he knew where to go to see animals. He told us how to spot them, explained their behavior. We saw all animal which you could see in Nakuru. This is a special national park as it has a lake in the center with flamingos.
On the way back we had a chance to visit Naivasha lake and tea plantation. We came back MEGA satisfied and definitely recommend Lake Nakuru one day private trip with Julius and Kenya Bush Expedition Tours. Everything went as planned.

Once in a lifetime experience! - We booked a day tour to both Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha with a boat tour.
We had an amazing time with our guide Titus who was super friendly, very knowledgeable and master of the road! He was so safe even through that famous Nairobi traffic.
We were picked up at 5.45am in a clean, safe safari van along with another passenger and made our way to Lake Nakuru. We stopped at the breathtaking views of Rift Valley before arriving at Lake Nakuru for a game drive.
Titus helped us spot lots of animals from Zebra, Buffalo, Baboons, Antelope, Rhinos (Black and White!), Giraffes and a lion (although it was very quick before it disappeared into the bush!) We stopped at a picnic spot in the park which so nice.
We then made our way to Lake Naivasha and took a boat trip on the lake to spot soooo many hippos, birds of prey and other wildlife. Watching a fish eagle dive in and catch it’s food was unbelievably cool! Seeing the hippos up close was an absolute treat.
Prompt return back to the hotel!
Thank you John and Titus for an amazing day.

Amazing day trip to Lake Nukuru & Navaisha!! - First time to Kenya and this tour did not disappoint! John (the owner) organised my whole day and the communication couldn’t have been better. My driver was Titus for the day and he was fun, friendly and knowledgable. Really recommend him for all tours. Lake Nukuru was absolutely breathtaking and Titus was telling us all the different kind of birds, animals and spotted so many things I wouldn’t have seen. We had to wait for a bit to go on the boat in Navaisha because of the weather but it was a great experience once we went on as we got so close to hippos. It was incredible. Thank you so much for this amazing day team, it was really special and I have now got unforgettable memories! I will be back!

First Time Visitors - It was our first time to Kenya, and Kenya Bush Expedition Tour operators took excellent care of us from the day we arrived till our departure (airport pick up and drop off included). Our guides/drivers, Titus and Steven were extremely professional, kind and knowledgable. They accompanied us on our trip to Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha as well as took us to Masai Mara and back. John, the tour operator was very accommodating and helped plan out our journey to perfection. Had a great experience overall and highly recommend Kenya Bush Expeditions.

book with confidence!!! - Its a bit worrying when deciding which company to use for tours when in new areas. I was a bit nervous to book our trip , but i decided to try this company. we were picked from our apartment early in the money with no delay,, the driving was okay and we felt safe in the hands of the driver. The park was wonderful and we spotted many animals. name them, lions,Buffalo's, Rhinoceros , Giraffes and many more. The lunch was also perfect at lake Nakuru lodge. On return, we passed through Lake Naivasha and the lake is a heavens wonder. Many birds and hippopotamus! Thanks kenya bush for well done tour!!
