Good service , friendly driver
very nice people and reliable and very friendly
Nice and very kind girl 🥰🌸💕
Perfect guide and friendly and nice
Dorcas was very helpful, kept in touch until we met at airport, drove me at hotel and back to airport, very knowledgeable
Dorcas picked up us from the airport, she waited for us and during our way to he hotel she gave us an overview of the city, good chat and reliable driving.
I was delayed at immigration on arrival at airport due to a system failure. Driver, James, very patiently waited for me while my transit visa was processed manually. He was a lovely driver, had a clean & fresh taxi & took me directly to my hotel. Will definitely book direct next time.
The ride came on time, was patient as customs took time. He was a great guide and answered any question I asked. The ride was comfortable and it brought me to the destination in the shortest time possible. Thank you James for the great hospitality and welcoming 🙏
I used the service several times during my stay, always on time, friendly and polite - even waited patiently when my flight was delayed.
Dorcas was recommended to me by another solo traveler. Coming to Kenya, by myself, with a late night arrival, I definitely wanted to pre book. From my first inquiry, Dorcas responded promptly, politely, and gave me all of the information I wanted. I decided to hire her for 3 full days. I’ve been to 44 countries and driven in many of them, but felt Nairobi was not one I wanted to drive in. She is an AMAZING driver! I don’t give that comment flippantly. She was always prompt picking me up. Any errands I wanted to do besides my sightseeing, she fit in. She also took me to local places to eat so I could try Kenyan food without worrying if the place was safe to eat. With a lot of the places only taking Mpesa and not cash or cards, she handled it and I paid her back. I also learned several Swahili words. She was so kind to everyone else we ran into in the course of a day, it made their day too. I could go on and on extolling her virtues, but I might run out of room. Don’t look any further for a driver. She’s the best!
Very professional. All went ok.
Dorcas was waiting for us at the airport although our flight was delayed. Her English was excellent and she gave us a lot of information which we found useful. We decided to booked her to take us to a Maasai Village and are very pleased we did as we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you Dorcas.
Dorcas was great! On time, knowledgeable, kind and very willing to help us and give us information about Nairobi and Kenya.
What an amazing person! Dorcas was not only waiting for us in the airport, she was actually there for way longer than initially scheduled because of the huge queue to pass through immigration at Nairobi airport and at a time we did not have network coverage in our phones. We were unable to update her yet she was there to receive us with such a smile and joy! We loved her company, her amazingly great driving skills and the conversation we had all the way until reaching our destination. We are thankful for meeting her, and without any doubt, would love to be with her in a future trip not to mention she will be highly recommended to any of our friends or family who travel to Nairobi. Thanks a lot Dorcas for being the great person you are!
Dorcas is lovely, she waiting patiently as we had a very long passport control wait, she told us stories about Kenya and Nairobi Got us to our hotel safely with a smile.
Dorcas picked me up promptly from the hotel. She was excellent and she pointed out places of interest along the way. We got to the Kenya International Conference Centre (KICC) and she took me to the rooftop to get a better view of the city. She was very knowledgeable and answered my questions about the Parliament and different areas and tribes in Kenya. We then left to go to the Giraffe Centre and got there in time before the mass tourist groups arrived. At the Giraffe Centre, I got to feed the giraffes and Dorcas took some pictures and videos for me. She also took me Souvenir shopping where I got to see the men in their workshop making the souvenirs. There were some Maasai men there and Dorcas got them to dress me up in their attire for pictures. Those pictures and memories will be with me for a lifetime! The tour itself was amazing, so was Dorcas! After the tour, she took me back to the hotel and managed to bypass the heavy traffic. All in all, it was an amazing day; and I'd definitely recommend it to everyone. Thank you Dorcas, for making my first day in Kenya an incredible one!
Nice experience. Everything went smoothly and on time.
An exceptional driver and a truly kind person! She was professional, punctual, reliable, and made every journey through Nairobi feel safe and comfortable. Her warmth, patience, and local knowledge made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting Nairobi—you will be in excellent hands!
Great in dealing, she is friendly, it was wonderful experience
Dorcas provided airport and in Nairobi car service efficiently and pleasantly. I’d highly recommend her services
A superb day with Dorcas! We met a she was my Booking driver for the airport transfer. We immediately became friends. She took myself and several colleagues of mine in customised city tours, visiting giraffes, eating real local amazing food, seeing Nairobi from above, shared some historic knowledge, a great cooperation of women making wonderful jewelry and a few good fair priced artisanal locations. Dorcas was an amazing ambassador for the city and het country! And a great person! I will highly recommend working with her!
The journey was very comfortable; my solo trip was very convenient and enjoyable.
Dorcas gave me an incredible welcome! She picked me up from the airport, waited despite my delayed flight, helped me sort out my SIM card, and was full of great advice. Always attentive, super funny, and genuinely kind. Highly recommend!
It was really an amazing experience be with Mrs. Dorcas in Nairobi, visit Giraffe Centre and few other places. We had amazing time and found out many useful information. We were together in Karen Blixen Museum and in beads factory too. It was an amazing beginning of our time in Kenya, which we visited for the first, but not last time. Next time we have to book this Lady too, she's amazing :)
Rating: 5/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Exceptional Guide and Human Being Dorcas Kagurani is the absolute best driver and guide in Nairobi. She is deeply knowledgeable, professional, and brings Kenyan history and culture to life through incredible storytelling. Beyond being an excellent guide for group sightseeing, she went above and beyond to arrange and support our full day trip to Giraffe Center, Karen Blixen Museum and more, ensuring complete safety, comfort, and a life-changing experience. She is highly recommended and a must-book for anyone visiting Kenya.
It was an excellent outing and value for money. I really enjoyed my time.
Dorcus was so helpful to me from picking me up on time from the airport to giving me orientation in Nairobi,dropping me the KICC for the AUF2026.Driving me around Nairobi and dropping me off to the airport while coming back.I got problems with my virtual card payments but she was patient with me,allowed me to travel back to my home country and then made payments from my home country.
Docus was an outstanding tour guide. I met her during my first trip to Kenya and she was very honest and extremely helpful. I have no doubt in recommending her for your tour in Kenya!
I go to Nairobi for business and the very professional and super friendly women driver miss Dorcas drive me every where I want to go for a very accessible price . See is always on time and drive very safe trough the busy traffic of Nairobi
As a solo woman traveller, I felt so safe and cared for with Dorcas. Her kind professionalism and calm, assertive driving are what stood out to me the most. I've sought her out twice when visiting Nairobi and will be sure to use her services whenever I'm in town!
Dorcas is an exceptional guide. Full of extraordinary knowledge. Extremely reliable, dependable and professional. She is also so personable. She is flexible and adaptable to a client's needs. Knows how to shape and tailor an experience to each individual. She seemed to know even better than I did what was the best site to visit. And she was connected and knew people at every museum or park we visited. Highly respected. Any time I am in Nairobi she would always be my first choice.
Dorcas always provided safe and timely transportation on multiple occasions over a number of days and varying times of the day. Dorcas was knowledgeable and respected everywhere we went. Dorcas would confirm pick up times and plans, was early, and proved to be an excellent and respected driver and guide everywhere we went. Will definitely connect with her the next time we are in Kenya.
I had the most amazing experience,the driver was keen on details,polite and ready to assist anywhere possible. The journey was smooth hoping for another experience.
I had an excellent experience with Dorcas, who guided me around Nairobi and later drove me to the airport. Her service was truly top-notch. She is knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly warm, making the entire experience both smooth and enjoyable. As a solo female traveler, I especially appreciated having a woman guide; it made me feel comfortable, safe, and well taken care of throughout. I highly recommend Dorcas to anyone looking for a reliable and outstanding guide in Nairobi.
I had a great experience with Dorcas during my trip in Nairobi. She picked me up from the airport right on time and ensured a smooth and comfortable ride to my hotel. She was professional, friendly, and made me feel safe throughout the journey. The car was clean and well-maintained, and her driving was excellent. I highly recommend Dorcas to anyone looking for reliable transportation in Nairobi and would gladly ride with her again.
In the tree day tour In nairobi, I got to experience the best Nairobi has to offer. All thanks to Dorcus, she was amazingly friendly and experienced. For sure she makes the best guide in Nairobi.
Dorcas is, without exaggeration, one of the warmest and most professional people I’ve met in Nairobi. During our time in the city for the Africa Urban Forum, she took exceptional care of us from start to finish. Her navigation skills are outstanding. She knows Nairobi inside out and moves with confidence and efficiency, which made every trip smooth and stress-free. What stood out even more was her communication. Clear, responsive, and thoughtful at every step, she made coordination effortless. And when it comes to timekeeping, Dorcas is simply impeccable. Always punctual, always reliable. If you’re looking for a guide or transport partner in Nairobi who combines professionalism with genuine warmth, Dorcas is the one. Highly recommended
Dorcas was very welcoming and correct, I enjoyed my time with her!
I had Dorcas for an Airport Transfer to a Hotel. Everything went smoothly from the inital contact to the meet-up. The ride was also great. I can definitely recommend her for any kind of bookings.
enjoyable stay in Nairobi My trip to Nairobi was worth it. Right from the airport pickup to the starroots residences. The night journey was smooth because our Shaffer was already waiting and traffic smooth. The residence very neat to our expectations. The owner of the residence very calm and patient. We've surely enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend Starroots residences to our friends planning to visit Nairobi. Asante!
Dorcas Kagurani is top-tier: professional, courteous, and knows every road in Nairobi. From pickup point to full-day safari, we felt 100% safe and learned so much local history at each stop. She truly cares. Highly recommend!
During our trip in Nairobi, my family, and I had the pleasure of touring with Dorcas. She was very informative, and insight when sharing about the areas we visited in the country. We all felt very safe and she was very friendly, warm and welcoming. We felt more like family than visiting guest. If you want someone who makes you feel at home, safe and a part of the community you should definitely book your tours with Dorcas. She made us feel at home in her home country.
Traveling in a new city can sometimes feel overwhelming, but our guide made us feel completely at ease in Nairobi. She was attentive, reliable, and always looked out for us. What truly stood out was how naturally she connected with our 3-year-old son—he felt comfortable with her right away, which made the whole experience even more relaxed and enjoyable for us as a family. Her knowledge and caring attitude made a huge difference. We’re so grateful for her guidance!
We gratefully made use of Dorcas's services several times during our stay in Kenya. A wonderful woman who holds service and reliability in high regard. I can recommend her wholeheartedly.
Dorcas was my driver throughout my stay in Kenya. I found her and attentive whilst driving me around safely. I would highly recommend Dorcas as both your driver and host. 5 star service at reasonable prices.
Seamless pickup and a very smooth ride from the airport. Professional driver and a comfortable experience throughout. Highly recommended.
Dorcas was a good guide for Nairobi, she showed us the main attractions. Helpful person, fast communication, clean and fragrant car. The only thing that left us a bit disappointed was the price: not having booked through the site (I see $27 per tour), they took advantage of us by asking for $100, then I managed to negotiate it down to $80. A price that is still very high and unjustified. If people were not always ready to rip off their neighbor, the world would be a better place!
I took three trips with Dorcas. On the evening of my arrival at the airport, I was picked up on time. Pickup information was excellent. The ride to the hotel was very efficient, and I received some interesting information about Nairobi along the way. Since I had already booked 5 days of my stay with other providers, I spontaneously decided to hire Dorcas for a city tour of Nairobi on the last day. For the 5th day, a tour booked through booking.com was planned for Nairobi National Park, which was canceled at the last minute (2 hours) before the pickup time by the provider. After a call to Dorcas, she quickly agreed to arrange a guide with a vehicle for a private game drive through the park, which then took place - a good 5 hours through the park with very nice animal observations, sufficient photo stops, and very good explanations from Tipa Jonathan, the guide and driver. The next day, the planned city tour of Nairobi took place with all explanations and many visits. We also stopped for lunch in a typically African setting with local specialties. The experiences and time spent with Dorcas were excellent and a great enrichment of my stay in Kenya. Should I travel to Kenya again, I will contact her in advance. She is a great representative of her country. Top driver
Dorcas was already ready at the airport to wait for us, helped us with the suitcases and brought us very pleasantly to our accommodation. Definitely recommended!
