Had a wonderful day with Evans, from Wasili Kenya Safari. He was a great guide throughout Nairobi National Park - knowing where animals liked to hang out and sharing his insights. Saw lions, rhinos, zebras, and so much more. We watched a giraffe family in the silence of the park - no other visitors around - for at least 10 minutes. It was awesome!

Operator response

Dear Renee, Thank you so much for the glowing review.We do appreciate and we do rest when we know our job was well done. We look forward to hosting you again in the future and any of your friends that you may refer to us. We wish you all the best in your efforts.

Outstanding safari with Peter- Elephant and Giraffe Centers a plus!

Peter was our driver/guide and he was outstanding! We did a 4 hour tour of Nairobi National Park. As a note, fees have risen for the park and are now over $90/person. We saw many giraffes, different antelope, a lioness briefly, a serval cat, many birds, Rhinoceros, warthogs, etc. it was so much fun to just be the two of us on this tour. The Sheldrick Elephant Orphange was a great experience although it was too crowded. Very fun to see these young but large animals playing. The Giraffe center was fun as we had never fed a giraffe before. They are so gentle! We could have skipped the coffee stop. Just tourist junk for sale. Not worth the time. Overall great experience - we highly recommend!

Highly recommended experience

What a great day, our driver Peter was so knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Our trip got off a bit slow (accident which held Peter up). Contacted company who replied right away with update even though was 6am. Once Peter arrived he took us to Nairobi National Park first. We saw a multitude of animals (zebra, giraffe, impalas, rhino)and birds (kites, hearon, ostrich, vultures) and more which Peter was able to tell us about and all the difference subspecies. Then someone said there were lions, away we went but we missed them, Peter was genuinely gutted we had and continued to track where they could have gone. Unfortunately no luck but thats safari for you. Next off was the Sheldrick wildlife sanctuary to see the orphaned Elephants oh and rhino and zebra. What an amazing experience. Peter then advised that our next stop was to be the Giraffe centre but it would be busy si we could go for a coffee. We took his advise and he stopped at lovebirds cafe, we spent about 30mins there and wandered around their gift shop. Then into the Giraffe centre. It was still very busy being the weekend, Peter couldn't get parked but managed to get us inside the gates. Lovely experience feeding Giraffes then a tour about the sustainability and rejuvenation projects that are going on. Peter waited patiently for us to come back. On the way back to the hotel Peter pointed out all the landmarks and talked freely about Nairobi giving us loads of information. Overall it was a fantastic trip and we would highly recommend it and Peter as a guide.

Cool tour of Nairobi National Park

We had an early start after a late flight but it was well worth it. Our Guide, Julius, was very knowledgeable and really knew the best places to go. Within a few minutes of entering the park, as it began to light up and the fog began to clear we saw Rhinos! We got close to Rhinos, zebra, giraffe, and buffalo to name but a few! We were lucky to get a lot of birds as well and even as Serval Cat! The visit to the Elephant Santuary was really good and hearing about the work which they carry out. The Giraffe centre was a brief visit but worth it to get close to the giraffes and feed them!!

Operator response

The best day ever!

What an amazing way to begin our trip to Africa. Our guide Peter was so amazing! He was informative, had an excellent eye for wildlife and treated us like royalty. We would give him 10 stars if it were possible. We were picked up at 5am and by 7 am we had seen 4 of the big 5!!! This park is chock full of wildlife and so beautiful. The Sheldrick Nursery is a do not miss! Also the Giraffe Center. He took us to a wonderful little restaurant for a tasty lunch of African food. You will adore this park and day! (Ask for Peter!)

Operator response
