Responsible Tourism

Responsible tourism is important for protecting Lake Naivasha, supporting local communities and preserving Kenya’s natural heritage.

Guests should follow national park and conservation-area regulations, remain on designated routes and maintain a respectful distance from wildlife.

During boat trips, visitors should follow the instructions of their boat captain and avoid disturbing hippos, birds and other wildlife.

Animals should never be fed, chased or deliberately disturbed for photographs.

Cultural experiences should be arranged through appropriate local partners, and guests should ask permission before taking photographs of community members.

Visitors should avoid littering and use water and energy responsibly.

Supporting locally owned businesses, purchasing authentic crafts directly from artisans and choosing tourism operators committed to conservation can help tourism create positive economic benefits.

A responsible Kenya holiday should benefit wildlife, local communities and the wider environment.
