Our guide was absolutely incredible at finding wildlife and knew exactly where to look. We saw rhinos, lions, giraffe, Impala, zebra, crocodile, ostriches, bush deer, hartebeest, Jackals up close. From the very first moment, our guide was incredibly warm, welcoming, and friendly, which instantly made the trip feel comfortable and fun.
Our family spent half a day in the national park, having been picked up from our hotel. The driver was very friendly and polite, and he told us a lot of things without us having to ask. He also inquired about our wishes and preferences and tried to fulfill all our requests, so that we all had a great time and a wonderful experience.
Driver was incredible. Knew the ins and outs of every road in the national park and surrounding facilities and Nairobi as a whole. Very useful for such and large and confusing city. Thank you
Best. Guide. Ever! We had a full day trip with our driver/ guide William, who took us the Naiorbi national park, the sheldrick elephant orphanage, the giraffe center, Cultiva for lunch, and then Kobe bead factory. I live in Kenya, and had family visiting, so I wanted to give them the full Naiorbi experience- and William just made our day! I’ve been to all of these sites already several times, but we had one of the best game drives in the Nairobi National Park with William- he took us the less crowded East Gate entrance where there was no vehicle wait to enter. Then we found ALL the animals, including some rare sightings. He took us off roading, explained the animal fun facts (many I had never heard of!), and took us to new parts of the park I had never been to. He was prompt to pick us up and positive all day long, despite some afternoon traffic. I highly recommend this tour company and William as your guide!! He was great company and we had a really fun day as a family.
We have been on the same trip before , but this one was very different. The guide was very considerate , respectful and carring . Ps we saw mufasa and mbumba !!!
We spent eight hours with our tour guide, Lawrence. He was exceptional! He was knowledgeable, flexible, & customer service focused. He did everything he could to maximize our opportunities in a low pressure environment. We felt 100% safe w/him. His English was excellent and his knowledge of the animals was impressive. The game park, giraffes and elephant orphanage were so worth it! Highly recommend

We took a guided game drive, which I’d highly recommend. Our guide Lawrence was knowledgeable and knew exactly where to find the animals, as well as share interesting facts about them and the park’s ecosystem. The drive was smooth, and the vehicle was open-roof—perfect for photos and panoramic views.
My trip with Lawrence was amazing. He is a free spirit, has a great personality and is very open-minded. Definitely made my time in Kenya very worth it.
Our tour with Lawrence was nothing short of exceptional—his deep knowledge, warm personality, and seamless coordination made every stop unforgettable. Nairobi National Park offered a thrilling safari experience just minutes from the city, where we spotted lions, giraffes, and rhinos against a stunning skyline backdrop. At the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Lawrence’s insights into elephant conservation added depth to our visit, making the hour feel both heartwarming and educational. The Giraffe Centre was a delightful finale, where feeding the gentle giants up close was a magical moment. Lawrence’s passion for wildlife and his engaging storytelling truly elevated the entire experience.
