    Enjoyed the boat rides.. Of course they're cheaper and more fun when you're in a group. Saw plenty hippos. Loved the experience. If you are in Naivasha, I would recommend you visit this lake and take a boat ride
  • By Karen P
    The boat ride was a great way to experience Lake Naivasha and get a close up view of all the hippos.
