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!

Kelvin delivers yet another wonderful day - Kelvin is a reliable professional and very personable tour guide. Two years ago he organised a visit to the elephant sanctuary and giraffe conservation centre- also the lovely bead project- it was so enjoyable we asked him to arrange a similar day this year -we were not disappointed and would recommend him highly

Great day with giraffes and elephants - Excellent tour our driver ensured we arrived at each venue in time and ensured we had the best vantage point to see the animals. Enjoyed a great visit to Kobe beads afterwards and then a wonderful lunch. This was a top notch day with an excellent driver!

Great Tour, Excellent Guide - Highly recommend the tour — both the Giraffe Center and the Elephant orphanage were unforgettable experiences and contribute to the cause of conserving Kenya’s incredible wildlife. Ask for Meshack as your guide, he’s an all around good guy, very reliable and will go out of his way to make sure you have the best possible experience. He got us to the orphanage in time to watch the feeding and also made sure we got front row seats—intentionally in a spot that kept us dry and mud free when the baby elephants started wallowing in the water. Be prepared to pay extra to explore the national park beyond the orphanage (the tour only includes the Giraffe Center and Orphanage), but it’s well worth it. Meshack knew all the best locations to view wildlife and maximized the time we had in the park. Within tour hours he got us amazing views of crocs, hippos, zebras, ostrich, gazelle, water buffalo, and even got us within feet of a grazing rhino family. We liked Meshack so much we negotiated some extras into the tour and reached out to him to get us from our hard to access hotel to the train station the next day.
