I have never done anything like this before, that was excellent

Unfenced Lake Baringo kayak adventure stands apart from almost every other tourism opportunity in Kenya – rather than watching the wildlife from the back seat of a land cruiser, you get to interact with it… You are in the weather, floating past hippos and crocodiles, pitching tents on uninhabited islands, learning how to respect the wildlife by engaging with it. Thoroughly recommend to anyone with a healthy sense of adventure wanting to get close and personal with Kenya’s magnificent wildlife.

An excellent paddle craft adventure on a wild lake. This trip gets you close to the edge of wildlife, rich birdlife, habited and uninhabited islands, shingle beaches, and rocky shores. Explore Baringo County from a thrilling vantage point; Unfenced!
