Fascinating and informative guided tours - Amos is a brilliant guide. His mind teems with knowledge about Kenya, Africa and so much else. His tour of African Heritage House was fascinating and moving and one of the highlights of my holiday (which was full of high points). His walking tour of Nairobi gave us a great feel for the city centre in a short amount of time. I enjoyed his company very much and can't recommend him highly enough.
