Hell's Gate National Park Tours and Tickets - page 7

An excellent way to see the beauty of Kenya without the constraints of a Land Cruiser. American family of 4, with two teenagers wanted a day trip to combine with our Safari so we booked with African Beast after reading great reviews and seeing the competitive pricing. Jane, our driver was amazing. She reached out to us via WhatsApp the day before to make sure our pickup location and time were correct. She arrived timely and got us through the sometimes crazy traffic conditions to the location. She was funny and kind and took great care of us. Stopping at a safari camp restaurant before the bike ride to let us use the washroom and preorder food so that we could use as much time in nature as possible. She also connected us with our bike rental/guide Gomez outside the gate of the park. Gomez was incredible. He took care of us, even when I broke a chain on my bike. He was thoughtful, funny, and went way out of his way to make sure our time at Hells Gate was great. The bike ride was excellent, stops along the way to look at wildlife and landscapes. The best part of Hells Gate is actually the scenery. After about an 8KM bike ride on a road, we set the bikes aside and went for a hike for about an hour in a gorge. It was our family’s favorite part of the day. The weather in July is perfect, low 70s F so the hike was incredible with great vistas. Make sure to wear good shoes or boots as there is some mud and water at times but I can’t recommend it enough. Afterwords we had a quick lunch, which was very good. And went on the boat ride for $25 a person. In my opinion, take it or leave it.. there are some cool views of animals on Crescent Island, but if you are doing a Safari as well on your trip, this part is unnecessary. It takes about an hour. Afterwards Jane got us home safely by early evening, the drive was about 2.5 hours. Overall, it was a great day trip. Jane and Gomez were incredible!

Wow. What a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The electric bike ride in the park with zebras and gazelles in the background was cool. The guide was so knowledgeable and cool with taking photos of my experience since I was solo. The lake experience was cool as well. I've never been that close to a hippo before. I got to see an African eagle swarm and pick off fish up close. The whole experience was top-notch. 🤩 🚲🦓🦛🦅 #Safari #Adventure #Experience #Animals #Lake

Great activities, especially boat ride and hike in gorge, except long ride there and back with lots of traffic. Also confusion over whether admission to park was included as stated.

Drive to Lake Naivasha with Josh. Went on a boat safari with guide Ben and saw land animals as well as birds such as the sea eagle and pelican. We then went to Hells Gate and took the option to hire electric bikes (3000 Kay) but well worth it. No protective cycle helmets are provided. We were guided along the gorge by a local guide who was very knowledgeable. Back for a late lunch we had preordered in the morning, then the 2 hour drive back to Nairobi

This was an excellent long day. Guide was outstanding. Very helpful. He was open to flexible planning. We enjoyed the drive. The touring bike ride down into the gorge. We enjoy the lake crescent Island. Each guide was excellent. Bike guide. Walking. Guide the lake boat driver. My wife became tired on the bike ride and the guide helped her to finish which was excellent. Our driver was patient and flexible. Which we appreciate it very much.

Really enjoyable : well worth it. Lots of steep walking into and out if gorge. Very interesting things to see and the animals we saw were amazing.

Top tour! Really recommend this. Good ride, friendly tour guide and a small group. Would love to do it again.

Great park to visit and biking is a unique way to experience it. Operator was friendly and flexible with our requests.
