We had a wonderful experience in Nairobi national park, elephant orphanage and Giraffes centre +beads factory Hakuna Matata. Our guide Watson wonderful person with vast knowledge of the animals helps to understand their habitat. I forgot the safari hat in his van.he was kind enough to do the delivery to my Airbnb.
It was a very pleasant experience. In the park, we saw hippos, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, warthogs, and other animals. Watson, our guide, gave us a lot of information about it... he tried to track a lion, but the lion preferred to sleep instead of showing itself! He contacted us the night before via WhatsApp and came to pick us up at our apartment. The elephant orphanage and the giraffe center are also very interesting. The bead factory is wonderful, a business run by women to help other women. A wonderful organization. Truly a beautiful day.
Watson was an excellent guide. We visited Nairobi Game Park, Sheldrick wildife trust, the Giraffe center and the womens beading community. A wonderful day . Definitely value for money
Highly recommend this Nairobi day trip. Communication was good re pick up and our guide, Watson, was amazing all day. We saw lions, rhinos, a crocodile, giraffes and zebras first thing, and Watson was a brilliant driver around the Park. He got us a great view at the elephant sanctuary and giraffe feeding also good. Bead factory was ok, at least no pressure to buy! Overall a great day
It was an amazing experience. The guide Mr Watson was so detailed and ensured all parts of the trip was covered. Great engagement
It's nice fun, Watson has so much knowledge of the wild, he gave us knowledge of things I never knew about the wild and I so much love it. Watson is well mannered and amazing. The tour was fun and amazing, kudos
Watson picked me up from the hotel and it was an amazing day! He was very knowledgeable about the park and a very motivated driver to allow us to see as many animals as possible, especially the lions. He also knew everyone and is very connected to the park agents, other tour drivers, and those who work at the giraffe center and sherrick wildlife trust, which made everything smooth and easy! Highly recommend.
Amazing experience! Our guide Watson was very kind and knowledgeable. We could see that he was passionate about his job, which made it even more interesting for us! He was as excited as us when seeing animals, and had a lot of information to share. All day, he was very accomodating with our group, and always very kind and patient. Loved all the activities.

This was such and incredible tour. Watson was a great guide! The day started off with a pickup from our accommodation. Then we went to the National Park where we showed our tickets that we pre purchased the night before for about $86. We were able to see lions, buffaloes, white rhinos, hippopotamuses, crocodiles, and a few other animals. After that tour, we went to the Elephant Orphanage where we paid 2,600 Ksh per person (they accept usd). Then we went presentation lasted for about 1-hour. Guests were not allowed to touch the elephants for their own protection. Then we went to the bead factory to learn how beads and leather craft goods are made. Beautiful works of art. We had a buffet lunch which was delicious. The lunch was maybe $12 per person. Lastly, we feed giraffes which was our shortest stop. All in all we had an excellent time and Watson was great!
