Nairobi's Wild Heart: Unforgettable Half-Day Safari

It was a fantastic day. The guide, Watson was on time, well organised and had excellent local knowledge. It was a pleasure to have the conversation with him between animal sightings.But the tour continued beyond the visit to the park, to the Elephant Orphanage and no experience would be complete without a little shopping, something to remember a trip or to bring back for a loved one.

This was one of my absolute favorite tours during my 3 week trip! Even though many people claim the park is small, it didn't seem that way. We rode around for hours and were able to see so many animals including rhinos and lions. The view we had of the lions at this park was far better than one of the larger parks I went to. I had an early AM pickup from the hotel and we arrived to the park right before dawn. The safari vehicle was in great condition. I was hoping for a vehicle where the roof opens up and that's exactly what we had! The driver raised the roof before we entered the park gates, and we were off on the safari adventure! The driver went above and beyond to make sure we were in the best spots to view wildlife. After the safari, we stopped for a delicious lunch buffet at a nearby restaurant with indoor/outdoor dining. The food was great and the staff very pleasant. We then stopped at several markets where we witnessed some cultural singing/dancing and I was able to shop and pickup some beautiful Kenyan clothing and souvenirs. We also stopped to meet some of the Maasai Mara tribesmen and got some great photos! Arrived back at the hotel in the early afternoon from what felt like a full day. This was an excellent tour. Would book again in a heartbeat! Book it, you won't be disappointed!

Our guild Watson was in close contact with the other guides during the tour so that we could see as many animals as possible. We saw a lot of loins up close. Also white and black rings. And some beautiful giraffes. Unfortunately no leopard or chitas as there is only 2 leopard in the park. The Nairobi National Park is a good option if you don't have time to go to Amboselli or Masi Mara. It doesn't feel as wild as you see the skyline in the back, but a great time saving option.

Watson was a great guide with great English and lots of knowledge on the animals. WE saw many animals and had a great morning.

‎If you want stress-free safari planning, this is the company to go with. Our driver was knowledgeable and funny, making the long transport hours fly by. The accommodations were clean and luxurious. Every meal was hearty and satisfying. We saw the Big Five in just two days! Fantastic value for money.

We booked a family safari with Kenya Tours and Safaris and couldn’t be happier. Our kids were thrilled with all the animals seen in Maasai Mara. Our guide was engaging and informative. The meals were fresh and tasty, and the transport was smooth. Great value for money overall!

From booking to drop-off, Kenya Tours and Safaris made our holiday seamless. The transport was comfortable and punctual, and our guide was a true gem. We saw elephants, lions, and even a leopard! The meals were delicious and catered to our dietary needs. The accommodations exceeded expectations. Excellent value for money.

A very good tour! The guide Watson is excellent. He is knowledgeable and always one of the first to get us to the spot and best view of where actions are. Highly recommend.

It was an astounding experience seeing so much wildlife so close to the city. Watson was a wonderful guide and driver. He manoeuvred the car with skill so we could have nice photos without crowding the animals unlike some other drivers who were too close to the lionesses and almost blocked their path. We appreciate the sensitivity shown by Watson to the animals. The park is amazing and we did 2 morning safaris. One with Watson and another with Obed. Both safaris were wonderful and it’s a must do when in Nairobi. Thank you.

Great trip to Nairobi National Park with Watson. Easy hotel pick, we got to the park before 7:00. Warden knew where to find rhinos, giraffes, zebras, gazelles and even lions. We also saw the elephant orphanage and the giraffe breeding charity. A great day out!
