During a long layover in Nairobi, the team took us out for lunch, then to the giraffe center, and later on an evening game drive. We genuinely had a fantastic time, and the team was very accommodating, showing us the best parts of Nairobi’s national park. I would highly recommend booking with them—it was a truly unique experience for us, and we would definitely do it again!

The trip was very well organized, including both pick-up and return to the hotel. Our guide and driver, James, went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible experience. We spotted around 30 different large animals, such as giraffes, zebras, rhinos, hippos, lions, ostriches, and crocodiles. Personally, I felt our guide focused a little too much on lions—we saw four in total—while my fellow travelers and I were equally interested in all the animals. This sometimes made the pace feel a bit rushed. The elephant orphanage and giraffe center were enjoyable as well, though somewhat crowded. Overall, it was an excellent experience that I highly recommend and believe is worth the cost.

Everything was well organized, and communication before the trip was clear. The pick-up was punctual. Our driver, Winston, handled all the entrance fees. Even though the weather was cloudy and drizzly, we saw many different animals in the park. Visiting the orphan elephants was a memorable experience. When it suddenly started to rain, Winston somehow managed to provide umbrellas. We also enjoyed a coffee break at a local community restaurant and curio shop. Definitely something I would recommend.

Our guide, Wilson, showed up right on time, clearly explained the plan for the day, and helped our group move quickly through the park entrance line. He shared interesting facts about the animals and made sure we got close enough to see them well. Everything ran smoothly, and he also suggested other things to do around Nairobi.
