The booking was easy, and they accept cards through payment link. The tour was really nice, the guide was funny and knowledgeable he made our day, we learned some Swahili words :))
Most important was the fantastic guide we had—Stephen Mutuku! He made the wonderful trip to the David Sheldrick Sanctuary, the Rothschild’s Giraffe Center, and Kobe Tough Bead & Leather Women’s Empowerment Market so much fun!! It is a tour that everyone should do when visiting Kenya.
Stephen was our guide/driver. We ended up being the only couple. It was like a private tour to us. He was very punctual and came very early to pick up. Texted the night before and answered any questions I had. He was very patient and friendly. He was great and in taking pics. He knew exactly what he was doing. His choice of restaurant for lunch was excellent. Tried local food, great food. He even took us to a gift shop to buy souvenirs. Perfect day!
Stephen knew all of the shortcuts. He made the tour excellent. I would recommend this tour. 123456789
Well organised tour that looked after us with information and allowing plenty of time to enjoy the experience. Highly recommended
Went on the Giraffe and Elephant tour. Stephen was our guide. He was brilliant. Lots of good knowledge and gave us some great tips to get the most out of the day
Hello Pioneer thank you for your review about the well spent day. You are most welcome another time in the future.
Great tour! A highlight of my time in Nairobi. The elephant orphanage, in particular, was excellent. We arrived everywhere plenty early, which meant we got great vantage points to see the animals. My guide, Wellington, was wonderful, and went above and beyond!
Stephen our guide was great. The tours allow you to get closer to animals then normally possible. Be prepared to want to sponsor the elephants and help keep the sanctuary open. Money well spent.
We are grateful for choosing this tour, it was great idea, we cannot regret. We had a wonderful day exploring the giraffe centre, elephant orphanage and women’s bead factory. Our guide, Stephan, was fantastic! He was full of knowledge and had good tips, he was also a great photographer and offered to take photos for us using our phones! Wonderful day and money well spent! Would recomment all.
What a great fun day out to remember. We were picked up with consistent communication from our driver guide Wellington throughout the day. Taken straight past the queue in to see the giraffes then on to the elephants with enough time for a shop and a coffee. Bead factory was very relaxing and interesting too. Well worth the money. Will come back again
