I couldn’t be more pleased with my choice. The trip was wonderful! Between the bike ride through Hells Gate Park and the hike through the Gorge, every view was amazing. So many animals to see - some very close. The boat ride on Lake Naivasha to see the hippos was likewise a great experience.

We then continued toward Amboseli, where we were greeted by countless elephants—and even a lion! Later, we had dinner at a restaurant inside the resort within the park before heading to a Maasai village. The village visit was fascinating and ended with the women showcasing and selling their handmade jewelry. We started the…”
