Review of Kenya’s Hell’s Gate bike ride, Lake Naivasha boat trip, Crescent Island, Rift Valley views, costs, tips, and practical advice.

“I'd happily recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring Hell's Gate and Lake Naivasha. I had a private tour which meant we could be a lot more flexible than if it's in a big group. We were able to stop on Crescent Island and explore, too, which I highly recommend if you have the time. A private tour on your own means a lot of time chatting with your guide. Luckily Patrick is very easy to talk to. He's also very knowledgeable about the area and Kenya in general which made for great conversation throughout the day. He's also a very safe driver, and goes out of his way…”
