Great length and great guide - Paul was a great tour guide. He picked us up at our hotel and showed us lots of points of interest on our way to the giraffe center. The giraffe center and the Karen Blixen Museum were great and the staff there were so knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend this tour to anyone, it was a great length as we had to get to our other hotel later in the afternoon .

Half Day Karen Area. - The tour itself was good and Julius made a good effort to make up for the late start. Better communication needed between tour operator and guests to ensure minimal delays.
