Awesome African tour

The best African tour I ever had. From my hotel, Olesreni, barely 20 minutes from the airport, I was able to experience the serene environment. Could spot the Nairobi national park from the balcony of my room. Met some of the most friendliest people to ever meet. Ate super delicious foods, from sit in restaurants to what they call "kibandas". Kenya archives was enlightening, snake park was super, the culture of the people was super admirable. Within the limited period, I intend to do another visit

Great City Tour

Great experience round the city - started at the National Museum, then the top of the KICC overlooking the entire city of Nairobi. A tour round the city and a stop at the Girafe center made the day more memorable. The crowning moment was the Marsai Center to experience the best of Kenyan Cultural dancing

KENSIL Tours is a fraud, avoid them

I do not recommend this tour nor any of KENSIL TOURS AND TRAVEL. The tour was booked at 9am, for 3 hours (after I was going to the airport). The guide arrived 9:45, apologizing for the traffic. I decided to request the refund as the tour was not delivering what they promised, they try to convince me with “we do it quickly”. The guide called the owner in front of me and confirmed they will do the refund. However, I only received a partial refund from KENSIL Tours, because I declined to join the tour (which is false, if it starts at 9am I wouldn’t declined). This was a scam. KENSIL don’t care about tourists nor giving a proper service. As it is not reliable, they don’t give a good service, and they don’t care to look for a solution in case of problem, I don’t recommend them. Tourists need solutions not problems when they travel. After traveling already to 115 countries, it is the first time I had a problem with an Operator, thank you KENSIL Tours. What an honor!

Family tour

We are a family with two kids, 7 and 5 years old. Kelvin was a great guide taking us to different interesting points of the city. Nairobi is a very interesting place and it is very important to let a local show you. Kelvin was very helpful slowing it down for the kids and helping us a lot. 100% recommended.
