The best you can squeeze in 36 hours
I was on a business trip in Nairobi and had less than 48 hours free time.
I am a passionate photographer and did not want to join a group that may have different interests, thus looking for a program that suited mine and gave me the flexibility to stop whenever I wanted.
Nakuru Lake is just 4 hours drive from Nairobi and allows game lovers to observe the big five except elephants in a short period of time, at least I did.
Flamingo Hill is located within the park and offers tented sleeping without losing the comfort and service you would expect from a decent hotel while enjoying safari experience and excellent dining after a day full of experiences.
I had John, a seasoned experienced driver-guide that made my 36 hours a worthwhile and trusted experience, wanting to come again.
Not cheap for one person but definitely worth its money, would always do it again!

Invaluable experience!!
I had only not one but two Safaris hired with Gatelinks and I have nothing to say rather than I am very glad to have chosen them as our providor.
Both drivers (Last and Phillip) were very diligent, funny and guided us into the parks providing useful insights which made us enjoying more our experience.
This, with all the comfort of the jeeps and the treatment and support by Rose and company made us to have two amazing journeys that we will never forget.
I highly recommend Gatelinks to any ride you are planning to do.

Prompt service and a great guide/driver
Communication with the team by email and WhatsApp was very smooth and the itinerary was well planned. The driver/guide (John) arrived at my residence early and ensured our timely arrival at Lake Nakuru (despite the very busy road) thanks to his skillful driving. John is a real professional committed to giving tourists the best experience possible. Instead of following the other cars to view birds at the lake, he decided to have us look for the big animals that would be resting once it got warmer. This was a good call, as we saw much more than many other groups we met later in the day. We found nine rhinos, and thanks to John's spotting skills we saw a number of very pretty birds. John is also knowledgeable about African wildlife and is very interesting to talk to.

Professional
From the beginning Lucy was very helpful and quick in her reply with ALL of our questions. It’s hard enough to book a trip from a distant and a little bit scary to transfer money you don’t know where to end up. But the cooperation with Gatelinks was reliable and professional, we are very pleased with both service before and during our trip.
If we could change anything: We should have been more clear about respecting the animals over getting a nice picture. Many vehicles surrounding the animals up close - awful feeling.
High value for our money. We ended up paying 400$ extra for a stay at Kibo Safari Camp in Amboseli, but it was one of the best. Good communication with driver on Whatsapp. High level of knowledge from our driver John. Thank you for an amazing trip!
