Highlights

This unique park is the only protected wildlife area within a city globally, offering visitors the chance to see at least four of the Big Five: Lions, Rhinos (both black and white), Buffalos, and the elusive Leopard.

The pop-up safari vehicle offers perfect views of Nairobi’s skyline and skyscrapers as a backdrop to your adventure. Don’t miss the historic ivory and rhino horn burning site located within the park. All your questions will be answered to your satisfaction.

Wow! - We had such a great experience! Our guide for the day was fantastic! Douglas was friendly, knowledgeable, flexible, and professional. We were so happy to spend the day with him. We were especially excited about seeing the rhino and we even got to see a lioness hunting zebra!

Perfect trip, perfect tour guide! - Absolutely the right tour to take to see the park, and worth every penny! Definitely worth going private, and also worth paying when booking so that you don't have to pay the entrance fee on side in other tours (easy to overlook the fine print!) Our group had the most amazing time and felt completely taken care of. Kelvin made sure we would see an abundance of animals, tracking them across three radios. He had a sense of humour, loads of cool fresh water bottles, and an instinct for finding the best human-animal encounters. Our only regret is that we three booked under the same name so cannot leave separate reviews to help guide visitors to this quality experience!

Fantastic private tour - This was an amazing experience. Kelvin was a fantastic guide. He had so much knowledge and took the time to find all the animals we wanted to see and let us watch them as long as we wanted. He was absolutely the best guide we could have asked for.

The perfect start to an open day in Nairobi - On a work trip to Nairobi, a group of colleagues decided to use a down day to visit Nairobi National Park. After a day of researching which company to hire, I landed on Rustic Nature Tours. We got more than our money's worth. Kelvin was our guide, he was extremely communicative from the beginning, reaffirming my decision to trust them with our experience. Kelvin showed up at our hotel a few minutes before our scheduled pick-up time, as soon as the group was ready, we were on our way, ensuring we were one of the first groups into the park. From the beginning it was apparent Kelvin was intimately familiar with the wildlife patterns, displaying a perfect balance of patience and assertiveness to put us in the best position to view the animals without disturbing them. He used every minute of our tour efficiently as we saw what felt like as complete a list of animals as possible. We encountered both Black and White Rhinos, 2 female and 1 male Lions, multiple groups of Zebras, Giraffes Gazelles, Antelopes, Ostrich, Crocodile, Hippos in the water, Buffalo, Warthogs, as well as various species of birds. He also put us in ideal positions to view the vast landscape of the park from multiple angles, capturing the sunrise, Nairobi skyline backdrop, and the Park fading into the gorgeous Kenyan countryside. It was an amazing way to start the day, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this experience. I will absolutely ensure to by name recommend him to any of my friends who plan a trip through Kenya, and already plan to contact him for my future Kenyan Wildlife Adventures.

“Unbelievable” Is the one word that summarizes this experience. An absolutely incredible time. - My wife and I were met promptly by our now good friend Kelvin, the CEO of Rustic Nature Tours. He met us at our hotel in what I would described as the coolest looking safari vehicle I have ever seen, a true off- road dream. We proceeded to Nairobi National Park and with Kelvin leading the way we bypassed a huge line of others waiting to gain entry. Kelvin had ensured our park access and all paperwork was completed prior to arrival and we literally drove right in. I have to mention that before driving into the park, he raised the entire roof of the Safari Vehicle and side windows creating a private viewing platform to experience the park. This is no basic minivan tour which we saw many. In our opinion, “Kelvins Way” is the one true way to experience the magic of this park. Now to talk about the tour itself!!!! In our travels, my wife and I have our handful of moments when we are truly impressed. Those moments will last us our entire lifetime and is one of the reasons we love to travel. Kelvin and his company Rustic Nature Tours gave us exactly that. It was nothing short of spectacular. Kelvin and his 8+ years of experience took us to areas of the park that no other tour was either aware of or could access. To explain what we saw with words is difficult to summarize but I can say this. Being 4 feet away from a Lion and having the opportunity to hear the “roar” of the king, seeing a pride of Lionesses and their baby cubs basking in their den, and going to a watering hole on the far side of the park with nothing less than what looked like entire animal population of the park coexisting was a memory my wife and I will take forever. Kelvin is a most genuine person, my wife and I are thankful we met him and his company. He literally went above and beyond to show us the wonders of Nairobi. We are returning to Africa on our next trip and plan to meet up with our new friend again to experience an 8 day safari. Kelvin and Rustin Nature Tours literally made our entire vacation and we will never forget what he gave to us.

Nairobi at its finest - Did this beautiful tour with Kelvin and our driver Peter. They picked me up at the hotel and drove me to the stunning National Park. He made sure we had some once-in-a-lifetime views: mom rhino with her calf, a pride of female lions enjoying a meal, a close up at buffalos, etc. A trip I’ll never forget and for sure I’ll be coming back to do bigger safaris with him! Asante sana, Kelvin!

Disappointing tour guide/ driver - Driver lacked communication and wasn't prepared from when we started the tour. He was taking private calls along the drive. In addition, we could visibly see we were going to get stuck in the mud on a road that wasn't required for us to pass, yet he insisted we go down that path. We did get stuck and lost over an hour of our drive. We were also not offered water to after the drive took place. Plus, he often drove off whilst we were snapping pics or watching the wildlife. Disappointing and not worth the money spent.
