- DayTrip378448690850 contributionsGreat!!I highly recommend it. We did it with our 2 children aged 4 and 9. And our driver was friendly and new a lot on the animals. What a joy to finally see a lion and lioness in their natural environment!Written November 8, 2024
- deepakpP5718YV0 contributionsEverything goodExcellent trip. Mr Watson, our trip guide and van driver was icing on the cake. V cheerful and knowledgeable person who briefed us extremely well about the park and wild life.Written October 18, 2024
- madysonl4750 contributionsAmazing !It was an Amazing safari so it was a Perfect day ! The rest was incredible too… top organisation ! Thank you for all Watson, we recommend!Written October 10, 2024
- S4297NEemmam0 contributionsAmazing experience - strongly recommend!Absolutely amazing experience! My guide Watson was the perfect guide - he was patient if needed and had so much knowledge about the animals and wildlife. We saw so many animals: giraffes, ostriches, rhinos, lions, hippos +++. I could not have asked for anything more. I would strongly recommend this experience.Written October 9, 2024
- OtheTraveler0 contributionsThanks for the tours Watson!We had a wonderful time!! Watson was a great guide. He knew his stuff and was a very friendly person which made the time fly by. Don’t go with high expectations of seeing lots of animals. It’s a big piece of land so you just drive around keeping an eye out for the animals. You will see them but again, don’t expect to see a billion of them all over the place 😂😂. By the way, the giraffe center and elephant center are a must!!!Written October 8, 2024
- Praveen A0 contributionsVery well planned shared gamedriveGuided tour was worth it , Watson was a very good guide and explained about the park really well . He even made sure that we sight most of the animals including the lions , rhinos , hippos , giraffes and other animals. Overall a well planned tour.Written September 30, 2024
- Z2414MYbilals0 contributionsGreat sight, host and experienceThe safari was great, we got to see a lot of animals and managed to see a lion right at the very end. Big thank you to Watson our host for the day who was also very kind and knowledgeableWritten September 24, 2024
- L8431AGmelanieo0 contributionsAmazing experienceWe had an amazing experience in Nairobi national park. Thanks to Watson our driver that brought us always in the first row to spot the animals. :)Written September 22, 2024
- Michel A0 contributionsA great day with a great driver!Watson was bang on time for everything, from the 05.30 pickup to the elephant orphanage- perfect. A good and safe driver - and honestly he did everything he could to get us to the best animal spots- we saw rhino’s, lions ( twice) giraffe, crocs’ cerval cat, ostrich, countless birds, zebras and more. The elephant orphanage was amazing.- where we saw the adorable elephants and a rescued baby rhino who is being rehabilitated. A great day with a great driver!Written September 14, 2024
- nancym8690 contributions5/5 stars because I cannot give more.Watson my guide was dynamite. So patient and attentive. I took this tour because I was mainly interested in the park and visiting Sheldrick Animal Trust. Can't believe how much we were able to see in just this one day!! The National Park was terrific and even more impressive considering how close it is to the city! We saw 2 lions hunting zebra, more zebra than I could possibly count, Masai giraffe galore, a cheetah walking calmly across the road Infront of us before disappearing into the grass and so much more. I have spent weeks on safari in the past and never saw lions or a cheetah. If that had been the entire trip I would have been completely satisfied and felt like I'd gotten my money's worth. After that we visited the Sheldrick Animal Trust - an organization I admire immensely and one of the major reasons I wanted to visit Nairobi. It was beautiful to see how much love and genuine feeling the keepers had for the orphans in their care. I was proud to support their work and get to see "my" adopted elephant. Lunch was good. We went to a restaurant. At first I didn't have much hope for the food but I ordered a beef dish which was terrific. Watson gave us plenty of time to eat and relax but as soon as we got up from the table he was near by. In the afternoon we visited a Women's empowerment project called Kobe Strong which provides employment for over 400 local women making jewelry from clay beads (Christmas shopping for the family check). The Giraffe Center to feed Rothschild Giraffes (this is also the organization that owns the famous hotel where Giraffe put their heads through the windows to eat your eggs Benedict... If you don't have a few thousand USD to spend the night this is a terrific alternative to meet and interact with the exact same giraffe! Our last stop was the Karen Blixton museum. It was nice and presented a very positive portrait of Karen Blixton her life and her time in Africa. I'm sure she was a bad ass but through today's modern lens one cannot help but to have questions about her legacy as a colonizer controlling such huge tracts of land and so many native people. Whatever. I liked the bird bath in the garden and she had the same knife sharpener on display in her kitchen as the one my great grandmother had and I use to this day (it's a great knife sharpener... Not that an aristocrat like her probably ever used it). It is clearly stated in the description that entry fees including to the Park, elephant orphanage, giraffe center, and Karen Blixton museum are additional - not included in the tour but not everyone read this and another group members was upset. Watson had an app on his phone so we could pay him by credit card to stream line things which I was grateful for because I would have been furious to have to spend all my cash but I will admit it wasn't the most user friendly app to use. If you have 1 day in Nairobi do this trip! You will see so much and you will not regret it!!Written September 10, 2024
- Pioneer539823167730 contributionsAfrica Tours and HolidayGreat experience riding with Watson. Shared lots of educative information about the wildlife, and was so enthusiastic and passionate about his work. He made sure we got to see most of the big 5 through his experience and maneuverability of the narrow tracks. I would definitely recommend him.Written September 2, 2024
- GrandTour605476480640 contributionsAwesome day of chasing and seeing Kenya animals.This tour of the Nairobi National Park was just awesome. Watson the tour guide, driver and "how can I make your day better" person arrived on time through communicating with guests. Even to the payment of entries to Park, Elephants and Giraffe tours. We saw every animal that was possible including giaffes, zebras,many lions, hippos, rhinos, gazelles, hearty beasts, different versions of deer, crocodiles, warthogs, and ostriches doing dances. Finished tour with a delicious lunch. Thank you to Watson for a wonderful fulfilling day.Written September 1, 2024
