Amazing - This was an unforgettable experience! Our driver, Joel, was absolutely amazing! He was knowledgeable and friendly as he guided us through Nairobi park. He shared fascinating insights about the animals and the history of the park. Visiting the Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Centre was an unforgettable experience that left us in awe of the dedication and care given to these magnificent animals. Overall, it was a fantastic outing, and I highly recommend this trip. If you’re lucky enough to have Joel as your driver, you’re in for an even more memorable experience!

Kelvin is the best! - We had a truly memorable day on this tour. Kelvin, our guide, was an expert who made the tour a fun adventure from the start. We almost felt bad for the other safari vans because we were often the only ones at the best viewing spots. I would recommend Kelvin to anyone visiting. I’m so grateful he shared his knowledge, positive energy, and passion for safari with us!

We had the best day with Kelvin! - We had an amazing day with Kelvin. He picked us up at 6am so we had time for a game drive before visiting shelderick. If you have time for this, definitely recommend the early morning start. The cost of park entry is already included in visiting shelderick, and Nairobi national park is one of the best spots to see rhinos because of all of the conservation efforts being made. Kelvin is very knowledgeable about the animals we saw in the park. He has an obvious passion about all of the national parks and the efforts being made to protect the animals living in them. Having a guide with his kind of insight and enthusiasm really creates the experience and our day with Kelvin could not have been better. We quickly found the rhinos we had been hoping to see. Then had a chance to see a buffalo, zebras, giraffes, ostrich, and many types of birds. On our way to the elephant orphanage, we were lucky enough to see a lioness from just a few feet away. Once at the orphanage, Kelvin helped us get a front row spot with the best view to watch the elephants come in for their feeding. At the giraffe sanctuary, he supplemented our time there with lots of interesting facts about the different giraffes found in Kenya. I would 100% recommend rustic tours for any sort of safari needs and definitely see if Kelvin is available. Our group had a few days of safari in Tsavo after our day in Nairobi and we all wished we could have had Kelvin as a guide there too!

Great Day with Rustic Nature Tours in Nairobi! - Absolutely wonderful day spent with Kelvin from Rustic Nature tours. Booking and ongoing communication was very easy. I felt we were in expert hands the whole day. Kelvin was very knowledgeable and was able to get little extras here and there that contributed to our experience. And lunch was a great recommendation! I would thoroughly recommend using Rustic Nature tours. We have already booked our next tour with him when we comeback to Nairobi!
