Safari FAQs
Is the boat ride included?
Yes. The source package is specifically a Lake Naivasha Boat Ride Day Trip, although the final boat operator and duration should be confirmed.
Are hippos guaranteed?
No. Hippos live in the lake, but sightings remain natural and boat guides must maintain safe distances.
Is Crescent Island included?
Not automatically. It should only be included if it appears in the confirmed quotation.
Is Elsamere included?
The old Land Rail page references it, but Land Rail should confirm whether it remains part of the current product.
