Great experience!

Edwin was so kind and answered all of our questions. We spotted quite a few animals and even came face to face with a lion and lioness. Amazing.

Wonderful experience!

Lovely experience for the family especially the kids. We saw a variety of animals on the walk. The free roaming baby giraffe was a highlight for the kids :) Our guide and driver Edwin was great and informative and the kids enjoyed his wonderful antics (dance) ;)

Nice walk but short

I have given this 4 stars because the guide was very knowledgable and enthusiastic about conservation, but the organisation of this trip was very poor. My driver had no idea that I had booked a guided tour and just wanted to drop me off at the park entrance, with no guide in sight. His idea was that I would self guide and he’d pick me up after an hour. It was only when I spoke to the office that they finally organised a guide for me (who was very good but the discussion and waiting around was annoying). The actual tour took about 60 minutes, which is not what I had expected from a “half day tour”. Afterwards the driver took me to a gift shop, which sold nice things but it wasn’t what I had expected to be doing. The booking fee did not include the entry fee for the park. Less than 60 minutes before the arranged pick up time the organiser texted me that I had to make an online payment for the park fee. That turned out to be a frustrating process because they wanted all sorts of details not just credit card details. I was unable to make the payment, which then resulted in a lengthy discussion at the park entrance before I was finally able to pay by credit card. If you book this trip - which is a nice introduction to Nairobi - I suggest you double check with the tour organiser that their understanding of what is included in the trip matches yours.

Amble among the antelopes

The walk was informative and one saw lots of animals. It was time efficient, perhaps more so than a longer game drive which is why I chose it. The stop off at a cafe cum souvenir store was an opportunity to buy items perhaps less expensively than in larger retail outlets. Though I would have been happy to dispense with it. Julius was an excellent and knowledgeable guide.

Unique and Enjoyable.

Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. He was sure to call each of the animals to us so that we could get an up close and personal experience. Feeding the giraffe and monkeys was definitely a unique experience that we loved. This is definitely a quick tour I would recommend if you only have a short visit to Nairobi.
