Audrey – Netherlands

Great day trip through the Nairobi National Park first. The guides make sure we see as much as possible. All is very smooth and not rushed we enjoyed all the stops (orphanage, beads factory and giraffe center). I would highly recommend.

Stirling – United States

Was great value time for money. Our guide was great in the park. Essentially it’s a shuttle service to the different Nairobi attractions. Would definitely schedule again.

Very nice experience. You see a lot of beautiful animals. The highlight for me was definitely the giraffe center as you ar sooo close to them and they’re absolutely majestic animals. Regarding the safari, the guide was more in the quiet side so don’t expect him to be full of facts about the animals other than the basics. They picked me up on time and there were no setbacks at all. I would really recommend this to spend a day in Nairobi
