Amazing Naivasha and Hell's Gate. - Everything went smoothly and on time. Eric is a great guide and an even better driver, which is crucial on a trip like this. Lake Naivasha is amazing, and Hell's Gate Park is also very interesting. We strongly recommend this trip with Eric!

Great family moments - Isaiah was professional, he helped us to prepare for our day the day before. I do recommend this excursion and the provider. Overall, the day was very good. We were the first at the Lake Naivasha and it was quite nice. Cycling all of over the Hell's Gate Park was a pleasure for the elder and the younger. The 16km circuit is accessible to all. In addition, we met other animals that we didn't see in the National Park. Seeing the animals up close was a fantastic experience for the children. The only problems we had during the day were the bike saddles, but it was not the responsability of the provider.

A Perfect Day Exploring Hell’s Gate and Lake Naivasha - We had an unforgettable day exploring Hell’s Gate and Lake Naivasha with day to day Tours and Safaris. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, smooth, and genuinely enjoyable. Our guide, Erickson, made the entire experience exceptional. He was warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive, making sure we were comfortable at every step. His explanations about the park, the wildlife, and the local landscape added so much depth to the trip, and he was fantastic at adjusting the pace to match our interests. The bike ride through Hell’s Gate was a highlight — breathtaking scenery, plenty of time for photos, and a relaxed, enjoyable ride. As a couple, we couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better agency. The professionalism, friendliness, and genuine care made this experience stand out. We highly recommend both day to day Tours and Safaris and Erickson to anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable adventure in Kenya.

Best trip to Hell’s Gate National Park! - We had a fantastic trip! The driver was safe and professional and everything was well organized and on time. The vehicle was spotless, new and they even provided water. We also appreciated our guide who biked with us through the national park where we saw animals and went down to the canyon. We had lunch and took a boat trip on Naivasha lake and saw hippos. I would strongly recommend you book with this company, they also offer a range of other services, like transport to different national parks and are flexible to your budget. They are trustworthy and do not try to price gouge you as a tourist. Contact them for your next trip to Kenya!
