About Naivasha
Located about 80 Kilometers North West of Nairobi, Naivasha is on the shores of Lake Naivasha along the Nairobi – Nakuru highway. It has become a popular destination for corporate conferencing and team building. This is not only due to its proximity to Nairobi- slightly over an hour away- but also due to the many number of hotels/ lodges found in the area.
Naivasha is a highly cosmopolitan town with all major amenities found in big cities. Major Banks have branches in Naivasha including Equity Bank, Kenya Commercial Bank, Barclays Bank, CFC Stanbic and Cooperative Bank of Kenya.
Besides its thriving floriculture industry dominated by large multinational flower and horticulture farms nestled along the shores of the lake, Naivasha is also a popular tourist destination especially for Nairobi residents seeking to run away from the hustle of city life.
There are various activities to be done in Naivasha including a visit to Crescent Island where you can walk in safety among wild but non dangerous animals, visit Elementaita weavers, climb Mount Longonot, visit the geothermal Project in Hells Gate National Park, visit the Elsamere Conservation centre or take a boat ride on Lake Naivasha.
