If you are inflexible, expect services/facilities of a modern hotel or lodge, and/or are unwilling to experience the unexpected – like a scorpion on your path or a fish bone thrust into your foot if you decide to walk barefoot or the outboard motor breaking down in the middle of the lake during an excursion to the Island, etc – you may want to want to seriously reconsider visiting Turkana.
