4 Days Lake Elementaita Christmas Holiday Packages

Three nights at Lake Elementaita over Christmas: flamingos, pelicans, and a quiet Rift Valley lakeside camp.

Lake Elementaita is a soda lake in the Kenyan Rift Valley between Naivasha and Nakuru, about 120 km from Nairobi. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, home to over 400 bird species, and consistently less visited than its neighbours. The flamingos are usually present along the shore, and the pelican colony on the southern shore is one of the largest in East Africa. This four-day Christmas package covers three nights at a lakeside camp with guided birding walks, a boat trip on the lake, and a visit to a nearby game sanctuary.

Safari Highlights

• Flamingos and pelicans: Lake Elementaita is one of the best flamingo lakes in the Rift Valley
• UNESCO World Heritage Site: one of five Rift Valley lakes with this status
• 400 bird species recorded: excellent birding year-round
• Boat trip on the lake for close-up waterbird viewing
• Quiet and uncrowded: a genuine alternative to the busier Nakuru and Naivasha
