My driver (Isaiah) and guide (Samuel) delivered a great experience. It is worth noting that this hike is 14.7 km one way, or 29.4 km both ways with 7 mountains to climb. It is quite a hike. I made it to the first mountain and the scenery was absolutely gorgeous. The guide walked at my pace and explained different landmarks along the way. Overall, I would recommend doing the hike if you enjoy the outdoors.

It was amazing. The tour guide was helpful and held my backpack while we hiked since it was a moderately challenging hike. Our driver helped us by taking pictures and videos to capture my zip lining—great memories and people.
My driver was on time and very helpful. He knew a lot about the city and was even willing to stop at several places for me. Hiking was very difficult for me because I don’t have experience but the crew was extremely patient and allowed me to go as slow as needed. My teen made it to the top of the first peak (there are 7) and then we turned around. That’s when I found out you do not have to hike to get up to the zip line. In fact, the zip line was back where we parked. This misunderstanding is the only reason why I didn’t give 5 stars. Otherwise, the view was nice, the people were professional, and the zip line was great fun! If you enjoy hiking then you are probably in for a treat. If you are a beginner, ask to skip the hike and just do the zip line.
Despite the cloudy start to the hike, I had a wonderful time. I was accompanied by my Day2day tour representative, Joseph and my Maasai guide Edward. Both were great hiking companions. Edward was knowledgeable of the hills, making this experience safe and enjoyable. Good hiking shoes is a must as portion are steep and slippery conditions on wet trails. The zip line was a lot of fun. Amazing views of the valley below!
Fantastic experience with a lovely tour guide from the Maasai community with whom I had some interesting conversations. Very well organised pick-up and drop-off with Erick. The zipline felt safe and Erick took plenty of photos. The views were breathtaking and it was very manageable for just a morning's excursion from Nairobi. I'll be back next time I visit!
We had a fantastic time hiking the Ngong Hills today. Erik was a fantastic host. He picked us up on time and brought us to the hills safely. Erik took lots of photos and videos of the zipline. It was a great morning/afternoon with a great host. Thank you!
Ngong Hills was a life time experience! The scenery and views are breathtaking. Plus you get to meet locals and some animals :) We started early where the air was fresh and there weren't many people around. Make sure to have layers for the early start and by midday you will be with half of your clothes. Moses was super sweet, full of great energy and excitement. We felt so at ease with him from the start. He took some great photos of us (he is a professional photographer)! He took us up and down the gorgeous hills. I zipped line for the first time, and even though I was scared to death, I loved it! We ended our tour in the city for lunch and then Moses drove us back home. Moses shared so many great stories with and we had a wonderful time with him. We hope he visits our countries so we show him around in our turn.
Moses was the most wonderful guide. He picked us up and we drove to the Ngong Hills. We went early which was a great time to go because we avoided any crowds and felt like we had the whole hills to ourselves. We hiked for over 10km and experienced the true beautiful nature of Kenya. Moses shared so many amazing stories, and had such a wonderful energy which made the day even more special. After our long hike up the hills, we went ziplining which was great fun and felt very safe. A memory we will always remember! I really recommend booking this tour for anyone who wants to experience the true nature and Kenyan experience. ❤️
The tour and views amazing And the experience made even more spectacular by our guide Erick. He was very patient and encouraging through out the hike. The whole day was just absolutely fabulous from the pick up from our hotel , to hiking up the Ngong hills, zip lining, lunch and our drop off back to the hotel. The day was a delite! Fabulous Fabulous Fabulous!!!!
Enjoyed ziplining and the hike. We didn’t get to all the mountain tops but we did a great job before getting tired. Erick also took the most amazing pictures of us. Definitely recommend him.
I enjoyed the moment with friends, the environment was very encouraging, security was well established. I am looking forward to visit there again.
Eric was amazing! Prompt pick-up, helped us grab water and snacks for the long hike, and prepared us well for the Ngong hills and zip line. Took care of us on the way back and found us fresh sugar cane juice and delish lunch.
Brilliant day out at Ngong Hills. Eric (my guide) was brilliant throughout. We went a long way together on the hike but i left him behind afterwards (I have a feeling he let me win, lol). The whole are is so beautiful, you get an excellent view of a section of the great rift valley. Importantly, it is an excellent opportunity for a good workout. Would go again anytime I am in Nairobi.
This was a good hike although we didn’t go as long as I would’ve liked. We were in a group of 8 and after about 30-45 minutes, everyone but me wanted to turn back. Granted it was really really windy and visibility was low at first so I only got to do three hills. The sky opened up by the time we zip lines and the view was great! Dress warmly and be prepared for windy conditions.
My friend and I had an thrilling time doing a hike where we could view the Rift Valley and the Zip Line with our guide Eric at Ngong Hills. It was pretty exciting full day of activity as it was my first time doing a Zip Line and it my second day of activity with Eric, he maintained the same level of professionalism as my previous activity with him, took really awesome photos and videos, shared detailed information about the places that we visited, including the Karen Blixen Museum where we met Prince Chris who told us the beautiful and scandalous story of Karen as we explored the house museum. Lunch was included in our experience came and we had a delicious time trying local Kenyan dish Ugali, with beef stew and grilled fish. Eric also went out of his way to take us to the mall to change some money and this really helped to make rest of our trip easier. I will definitely recommend booking this activity with Eric to experience a different part of Nairobi.
