Very nice walking tour, Calvince is very knowledgeable guide and shares a lot of interesting information about Kenyan history. Going to the market is not such a pleasant experience if you are not a fan of intrusive salesmen and bargaining. Better places for your souvenirs and gifts are Langata Link and Spinners Web, also nice for a good coffee and lunch.
Calvince is a super nice guy and gave us a great walking tour of some of the city highlights. Can highly recommend!!
Calvince is an excellent tour guide. He is highly knowledgeable and delivers a quality service. He was prompt and on time and met me at my hotel and made sure I was safe at all times. He answered all my questions and gave me an interesting insight into Nairobi culture. Highly recommended if you have a couple of days in Nairobi after your safari.
Thank you so much for the review! It means so much.
Calvince was the perfect guide. He has a lot of knowledge and explains everything in an interesting way. He is fun, very friendly and extremely helpful. We highly recommend you book a tour with him when coming to Nairobi. You will not be disappointed.
Thank you so much for the review!
This morning we did the citywalk Nairobi. If you visit you should do this walk with Calvince. Absolute superb. Very informative, very safe, very pleasant. We love it and strongly recommend this. Thanks Calvine.
What a great guide! It is a fairy easy walk in one small area of Nairobi but he provides all the facts that you want and more. He looks genuinely interested in pleasing you and make this an enjoyable time. Also, he was the only guide who offered this as an afternoon your, very convenient for people on a tight schedule. Super-rexommended
Calvince was a great guide! He was very polite and knowledgeable. He was there to answer all our questions and showed us around some of Nairobi’s monuments and explained their historical significance. He was very attentive and we had a lovely afternoon walking the streets of Nairobi with him. Definitely recommend him as a tour guide!
Calvince is a great host. He listens to your wishes and adapts his tour perfectly towards that. Learned so much about the city I wouldn't have otherwise and was the most enjoyable experience
I was lucky enough to have been the only person on the tour so I got Calvince's full attention. He is full of all the historical, cultural and knowledge of the city of Nairobi. I highly recommend his tour. The highlight for me was going to the top of the Kenyatta International Convention Centre and appreciating the Nairobi skyline.
Calvince What a great tour! My girlfriend and I wanted to see the city, but we wondered if it was safe. Then we ended up at Calvince! And I would recommend him to everyone! Calvince guided us today through Nairobi's CBD (central business district). An interesting tour where everything is covered, including: history, sight seeing, food and of course lots of fun. Calvince really knows how to explain everything very clearly so that everyone can understand it. Calvince is someone who pays close attention to you and knows how to answer all your questions. My girlfriend and I felt really comfortable in the city, partly thanks to Calvince. Thanks again for the enjoyable and informative tour. We really enjoyed it! At the end, Calvince has a nice surprise, but for that you have to book the tour yourself. Highly recommended!!
