    3 Stars Nakuru - Behind the Rhino, The real resort! 15/10/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great Parks

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Niave Tourists

    Nakuru, Kenya, a place of magical beauty, where hotel prices range from £2 per night to £2000. An absolute contrast, but Im not going to talk about the national parks, they are beautiful, and I was fortunate enough to live in one for several weeks on a construction task for the Kenyan Wildlife protection folks. Im going to push my thoughts onto Nakuru itself, the city of Nakuru. Here we have a city trying to play big, in the day time, it beholds street sellers and street children alike, at night, it beholds night clubs / brothels and again, street children. I would rather divert my thoughts ... more

    5 Stars see animals in the wild 11/03/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages natural outstanding beauty

    Disadvantages Disadvantages heat!! and flies

    When I visited Kenya in dec 04 I went to many tourist destinations. I really enjoyed being there, the people were kind and friendly and the currency was just great!! I went to Nakuru which is I think the 4th biggest city in Kenya. The National park was massive and you could not compare it to going to a zoo. I saw many different wild animals such as lions and small cubs, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and many more. I took many priceless pictures and the scenery was breathtaking. This was my first time to see these animals in their natural habitat and it was one of those moments that you will never ... more

    5 Stars Baboon Attack 13/08/2000
    User recommends the product
    I am a fellow Kenyan. I have been to nakuru several times. Its a small city...nothing really to do there. There is Nakuru National Park there. I went camping there with some friends. Advice is don't mess around with the baboons in the park. They ripped off my tent, scratched my car and were almost ready to bite me. This was all because of them seeing the food we had. So don't leave your food outside for them to see it. Always pack it and put it back into your car. ... more

    5 Stars LAKE NKURU 11/08/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages MAGNIFICENT SIGHTS

    Disadvantages Disadvantages THE FLIES!!

    WE ARRIVED A LITTLE HOT BUT EXCITED AT THE LAKESIDE AND OUR GUIDE POINTED OUT THE EXPANSE OF PINK WATER. IT TOOK A WHILE FOR US TO REALISE THAT THEY WERE, IN FACT FLAMINGOES; THEY ROSE EN MASSE AND THE SOUNDS OF THEIR WINGS BEATING SOUNDED RATHER LIKE THE BLADES OF A HELICOPTER!! SURROUNDED BY BREATHTAKING SCENERY, THIS IS A PLACE ME AND MY FAMILY WOULD CERTAINLY TRAVEL TO AGAIN FOR A LITTLE PIECE OF ORNITHOLOGICAL HEAVEN. IT WAS REASONABLY PRICED, EASY TO TRAVEL TO VIA THE WARDEN'S JEEP AND THE STILLNESS AND COLOURS OF THE SCENERY WERE INCREDIBLE. IF YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING ELSE IN YOUR LIFE ... more
