Nairobi Escape: Unforgettable Naivasha & Hell's Gate Adventure

I enjoyed my time. I didn’t expect to see so many animals. It was an amazing adventure and the drive was short . I didn’t feel rushed and was able to have a zebra encounter

Was a great day trip seen and did more then I expected, riding a pike past zebras and giraffes was something very different, boat trip is interesting as well

Perfect Organisation. We started on Time in the Morning from Nairobi to Hell‘s Gate. The bike Tour was awesome - spotting lots of animals in the park. Also on the boat we were able to check on the Hippos in Lake Naivasha.

Seeing the animals while cycling through the park was just the start. It is 8 km there and back but surface good and bikes in good repair. David our bike guide was informative and considerate.

I had a last minute opening in my schedule and managed to book this trip at night for the very next morning. Erick contacted me immediately and showed up on time. The day was incredible- we stopped along the way for gorgeous views of the valley, we went to Hell's Gate where a bike guide named David took me through Hell's Gate which was awesome. We did a bike ride in, a short hike then biked back. Gorgeous views. Then on to Lake Naivasha and a boat ride to see the hippos (you CAN pay extra to walk on Crescent Island but I didnt know that- will do that next time!). Honestly everyone was great- it was a perfect day trip and I couldn't be happier with my guide Erick!!

The bike ride into Hell's Gate, although quite tough in places was memorable. Saw some wildlife along the way. Zebra, giraffe and Buffalo mainly. Eric my driver was very pleasant and accommodating. You should be aware however, the cycle hire is $8, entrance to Hells Gate was $20, and the boat ride costs $40. The drive from Nairobi took around two hours.

It was a great experience! Both guides were friendly, professional, knowledgeable and kind. The bike ride was unlike any safari experience I have ever had. I saw warthogs, zebra, gazelles, all sorts of monkeys and 1 super curious giraffe. I also learned a lot about Kenyan history from the guides. Do be sure to read carefully what is and isnt included as you will need to bring cash to pay for the bike hireand boat, and a credit card or mpesa for entry to Hell's Gate, plus cash tips. I was able to pay for lunch with a credit card. And there is (surprise!) A Maasai market near the gorges, so be sure to bring a bit of cash for snacks or gifts. Entirely recommend!

Cycling through Hells gate was such an enjoyable experience and to do it so close to the zebras was something. The boat ride on Lake Naivasha was calming and scenic and we enjoyed walking alongside animals on crescent island. Erick was great and made it enjoyable

We had a great day trip to Naivasha. We were picked up in Nairobi and shuttled to Hell’s gate National park, where we rode bikes up to the gorge and back. It was breathtaking! We saw zebras and other animals along the way. Afterwards, we were taken for lunch at Lake Naivasha and then went on a boat ride to see the rhinos and exotic birds. The boat took us around Crescent Island. On our way back, we stopped at a scenic location to get a spectacular view of the Great Rift Valley, which stretches across many countries in Africa and Asia. It was a phenomenal trip because everything was planned, arranged, and taken care of for us!

Eric was more than accommodating to us and our needs throughout the entire trip. We saw some beautiful sites and animals. Highly recommend!
