Recommended visit! - This is a must visit in Kenya. You have a once in a lifetime opportunity to walk with the animals. I been to Nairobi twice and both times did this experience. Moses was a great guide and very knowledgeable. I will always remember this experience!

Beautiful Day Trip for Amazing Wildlife! - Beautiful Sights! We wanted to do something a little off the beaten tourist path so we asked Mwose about a tour to Crescent Island. We were not disappointed. The wildlife was everywhere, the conversation was funny and informative and the traffic was not too bad. Great trip!

Highly recommended - This was a really great day trip to get out of the city for the day and see a bit more of Kenya. Lake Naivasha was beautiful and the walking safari was a unique experience which allowed us to get closer to animals including zebra and giraffe that you would never normally be able to. Moses worked super hard all day organising everything and providing tons of facts and information. He even made sure we saw a giraffe even though there was only one on the island that day. The road through the Rift Valley was a bit busy with lots of trucks, but Moses was a great driver so we felt km safe hands.

This is as close as you will get to some of these beautiful creatures - an unforgettable experience! - This is one we're still talking about! We spent the day with Mwose, who was a personable and knowledgeable guide. FYI, pick-up in Westlands at 7am, and drop-off at about 5:30pm. The visit to the island itself was incredible. Egrets, ibises, and numerous other birds. We walked up to Massai giraffes, and came quite close to zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, impalas. There were hippos in the water just off island. And so much more. On the way back to shore, the motorboat stopped so that we could watch fisherman cast by hand from old tree stumps in the middle of the lake. And lunch, around 2pm, was quite good--at Camp Carnelly's. In all, the island was a truly unforgettable experience, which we have recommended to others. Only 2 downsides: the drive to and from Naivasha, by whichever route, is filled with exhaust-belching trucks, which got to be quite unpleasant; and the bait that the skipper used to get the fish eagles to dive near us in the water had Styrofoam in it, which meant it has been dispersed into the environment. Otherwise, only positive things to say.

The beauty of Lake Naivasha - Navigating the large Lake Naivasha to the island was great. The animals on the island were awesome to watch.
