We had wonderful tour with Dennis today. He is vey professional, knowledgeable and patient. He came on time picked up at our hotel, arranged our order of tours to maximize the activity and timing. Even arranged extra by go through China Twon area to allow us first sight of it. Very appropriate. Thanks Dennis .
We had a half-day tour with Faith, and she was amazing! She made the whole experience so much fun and was a fantastic guide, giving us a great introduction to Nairobi. She made everything easy to organise, from finding the best spots to see the elephants to the giraffe feeding experience. Her local knowledge and friendly nature really made the day special. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you have a short time in Nairobi and want to make the most of your visit.
We had a wonderful tour to the bead factory, followed by the wildlife conservation where we saw a baby rhino, baby zebra, and 13 young elephants, and finished at the giraffe centre. Our guide Faith was fantastic, very friendly, funny, helpful and accomodating. She definitely made the tour a wonderful experience! Highly recommend :)

Kelvin was fantastic. Could t have asked for a better guide. Had an all around great time!
Amazing experience. Surreal feeding and interacting with the giraffes. The elephant orphanage was breathtaking Our guide Kelvin was very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend
Highly recommend this tour and be sure to ask for Kelvin! He was so kind and knowledgeable which made the overall experience even more enjoyable. I managed to book on last minute (the night before) so had the car to myself but Kelvin was so lovely and made sure I was okay every step of the way. He even took photos for me as I was by myself which meant I had memories of the day. Seeing the elephants in the orphanage was definitely a highlight! They’re doing such beautiful work. Huge thank you Kelvin for such a wonderful experience
Overall, a lovely tour. Getting close to the animals was an unforgettable experience. Denys is a very kind and friendly driver and tour guide, always ready and doing his best to make our visit pleasant.
