Nairobi's Wild Heart: Unforgettable Half-Day Safari

I had a great experience exploring the wildlife with Watson; my amazing guide. Watson was so good at spotting animals, made sure I could get close enough to admire them without also disturbing them, and made sure I was comfortable and safe. Totally recommended

Excellent service from booking to pickup from my apartment, and the tour. Watson is very knowledgeable and did an excellent job keeping the group informed and entertained throughout the tour. Highly recommended.

‎I wasn’t sure what to expect from a half-day trip so close to the city, but the Half-day Nairobi National Park safari tour with Kenya Tours and Safaris Company completely surprised me. ‎ ‎The pickup was on time, the vehicle was clean, and the guide was extremely knowledgeable about the park’s history and animals. ‎ ‎We managed to spot lions, giraffes, buffalos, and even a rhino before midday! What I appreciated most was how the guide balanced giving information with giving us time to enjoy the moment. It felt like a complete safari without the long travel. Highly recommended for anyone with limited time.

It amazed me how quickly we transitioned from Nairobi’s busy streets into pure wilderness. ‎ ‎Kenya Tours and Safaris Company organized our Half-day Nairobi National Park safari tour so effortlessly. ‎ ‎Our guide was friendly, patient, and very focused on helping us see as many animals as possible. He knew exactly where to find lions lounging in the morning sun. ‎ ‎The whole experience felt relaxed, safe, and well-guided. For travelers who want to enjoy wildlife but don’t have the entire day free, this tour is ideal. I honestly didn’t expect to see so much in just a few hours. Worth every minute and every cent.

Me and my friends had such an amazing time on this safari! Watson was the best driver we could’ve asked for making sure we were able to see everything we wanted to see! He also helped us getting a reservation at the elephant orphanage which I didn’t realize was an extremely hard thing to do. If you are doing the safari make sure you ask for Watson!

Watson is an excellent driver, he always seemed to be able to anticipate where the animals would go rather than where they currently were, putting us front row in comparison to other shuttles. He communicated with other drivers in the park to be informed where less frequently seen animals were: we had excellent views of lions, cheetahs, and rhinos among the more commonly viewed animals like giraffes and zebras. He also was able to get us into the Elephant Orphanage on short notice. Thank you Watson! 10/10 experience.

Great way to see a lot of beautiful animals and experience a safari in the middle of the seat! Baby elephants and giraffe pictures are the best gifts you can have! The tour guide Watson was pontual, friendly, made Amazing videos of me and does explains all you need about the experience

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.
