Understand and appreciate conservation works at the Sheldrick wildlife trust. The Nairobi nursery rescues and rehabilitates this baby tuskers & re-integrates them back in the wild after 3 years at the ithumba reintegration unit north of Tsavo east. This is a jewel visit and a must visit for anyone who appreciates wildlife and the importance of conserving this critical species for our future generations.

Brace yourself for an extraordinary encounter as you also get the chance to feed these gentle giants, forging a connection that will leave an indelible mark on your heart.
The experience was really nice, we were Infront the elephants, we saw all of them in the first row, they were playing a lot and doing a bunch of things as kids. Later in the safari we asked him to see just the rhinos that were the only ones that left us, and with a completely positive attitude he drive us to see 12 rhinos. Good experience.
Incredible experience with Kelvin. Arrived spot on time, and was greeted with a friendly run down of what we would be doing for the day. We started at the Nairobi national park and entry went super smooth, was incredible we saw so much including the Rhinos & Lions. The vehicle had great views all around and we took plenty of excellent photographs. We could not believe how many people Kelvin knew, and this knowledge of animals and birds was amazing. We then visited the Sheldrick Elephant orphanage, which again was an excellent experience, Kelvin making sure that we were in the best position to see the elephants, baby Rhino & baby Zebra. We then had lunch at great cafe called Makutano Grill which we would also highly recommend. We then finished the day with a visit to the Giraffe centre and again Kelvin made sure we were in a great spot and even gave us his food to give to the Giraffes. I cannot recommend Kelvin highly enough and will look for him for a future trip to Kenya / Uganda in a couple of years time. Thank you so much
We did the day trip with Joel. He was so kind and patient. We were excited to get so close to rhino’s (white as well as black!), but never too close or in the animals space. We did the national park, sheldrick rescue and giraffe centre and loved how easy Joel made it for us.
Just my husband and I. We had a wonderful time with Faith. She is very knowledgeable and provide fantastic experiences for us.
This tour was on our second day in Nairobi. It was amazing!! Kelvin was a dedicated, passionate tour guide and treated us to fantastic photo ops and experiences.
Kelvin from Rustic Nature Tours was amazing! He was punctual, informative and was made sure we had a good view and experienced front row views. Our first safari experience was through Nairobi National Park where Kelvin knew the area intimately. He was able to navigate quickly to see animals and had a vast knowledge of each animal. I would highly recommend this company.
My private tour with Faith was truly amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, fun, and made the whole experience unforgettable. Faith guided me to the best spots to feed the elephants, did a photo shoot of me while feeding the giraffes, and captured incredible photos. I had such a fun time. By the end of the tour, she felt like a friend. Ask for Faith—you’ll be really lucky if you get her!
We booked the all day Nairobi national park, elephant orphanage, and giraffe center with Joel. Great experience. Very professional. Safe.
Faith was lots of fun , easy to talk with and she answered all our questions. She got us the best parking spaces . Took us to a nice Resturant and the giraffe center
I really enjoyed seeing the elephants and how they were rescued. We got to see them bottle fed, play together, roll in the mud! We also fed giraffes and they were adorable. The best part of our trip was our guide and driver named Faith. She was upbeat, seem to know and love everyone and shared information about her culture, family, and life in Africa.
Kelvin was an outstanding guide throughout our journey to the National Park. His deep knowledge of the park’s wildlife and landscapes enriched every moment of our safari. From the very beginning, Kelvin made us feel completely at ease, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. His ability to be in the right place at the right time allowed us to witness some truly unforgettable sights. What stood out most was his attentiveness to our interests—he tailored the experience to match our pace and preferences, making it a truly personalized adventure. Thanks to Kelvin, this trip has become a cherished lifelong memory.
We booked with the company and had Faith as our tour guide. FAITH IS AMAZING! She was soo welcoming, knowledgeable, and went out of her way to make it a great experience for us. She gave us plenty of time to explore the bead factory, and when we got to the elephant orphanage, she knew exactly what to do to get us the best viewing spot! Overall, just had a great time with Faith and would highly recommend her if you have a chance to get her as a tour guide!
Faith, our tour guide extraordinaire and ambassador to this beautiful country, first took us to the Kobe Tuff Bead and Leather Craft Centre where we encountered some amazingly resilient and endlessly creative women who showed us their crafts, and regaled us with music! Then, on to the Baby Elephant Sanctuary where Faith was proactive in securing us a front row spot where we could have an up-close encounter with these extraordinary creatures. Then on to the Giraffe Park where Faith treated us to a pre-show instruction in how to feed the animals. She knew each one and its idiosyncrasies intimately and was very knowledgeable about the species and its habitat. The car ride was just as entertaining. Faith navigated this city with a sure and astute skill. No topic was off-base. She answered each and every question with equanimity and honesty. She allowed a stop for a personal errand and returned us to our lodgings safe, sound and determined to return! Jambo Faith! Asante santa rifiki!
We were so lucky to have Kelvin as our guide today. He had an incredible amount of knowledge about the animals and birds in Kenya which he shared with us. He came with us into Sheldricks, getting us a great spot on the fence go phots, patiently waited for us as we toured the KobeBeads, then again at the Giraffe center came in with us and gave us more information about the giraffes, even other groups were listing to what he was telling us! He was great with the camera, taking photos of us with the giraffes. Thank you Kelvin we had an unforgettable day with you as our guide!
We took a fabulous 1/2 tour through Nairobi National Park with Douglas at Rustic Nature Tours! He was so knowledgeable, flexible and knew exactly what to do to make our experience feel unique. We only had a few days in Nairobi and were so happy that Rustic Nature Tours helped us make the most of our time!
I chose Rustic Nature Tours because being our first time in Nairobi, this tour company offered a customizable day. We were able to choose the time and places and we were not disappointed! With only one day to see Nairobi on our own, booking a late morning start time was perfect due to a late flight in the night before. Kelvin listened to our preferences and put together a fabulous day! He knows the city & beyond very well. The cost was more than fair for our experience. We will absolutely be calling him the next time we're in Nairobi.
Highly recommend Kelvin! We had the most wonderful experience! Kelvin went above and beyond. He is very personable and helpful. Kelvin is very knowledgeable about both the animals and birds. We never expected to learn so much about the life and history of the National Park. And he is a master at being on the lookout for wildlife! Again Kelvin, you are the best😊
