Great half-day tour of Nairobi - My partner and I did the walking tour in December and we had a blast! Our tour guide, Faith, was fantastic - in addition to taking us to all the sights in the city centre, she also told us a lot about the culture and modern life, and was an absolute sunshine. The traditional Kenyan lunch was delicious and Faith also introduced us to the wonderful ugali :)

Good tour with a great guide - Nice relaxed tour of The main sites in the city with the excellent guide in Faith who is very knowledgeable. We saw what we wanted to the lunch was very pleasant, but the highlight really was the journey on the local bus with the guide which was a real experience. She was willing to take us to places that we wanted to go to rather than just her own agenda and was very helpful when we went to a local market and made purchases. The only downside was probably theNational Archives where the in house guide wanted to show us every single object in the museum Thoroughly recommended it for a good half day to learn about Nairobi

Very cool experience - strongly recommend! - The tour was a very good experience! My guide Erick had so much knowledge and was very easy going. It was a good mix of walking around and exploring the city, history and local food. We maximized the time, and got to see a lot - things I probably wouldn't have seen if I was alone. I strongly recommend to go!

Nairobi city tour with a dedicated tour guide! - Erick is our tour guide and has good knowledge about the city. He also ensured everybody was cared for and provided support when needed. The tour was amazing overall but for the Maasai market, the tourists need to watch out and do some negotiation.

Downtown Nairobi - This walking tour is a great way to experience downtown Nairobi. The peace memorial was moving, the archive museum interesting, a ride on a mutatu was terrific followed by a tasty lunch.

A great intro to Nairobi - Erik from Urban Adventures with Intrepid did a fantastic job showing us the many sides of Nairobi. The optional bird's eye view from the convention center was a great touch. The local bus ride was a highlight, and the meal at the end was plentiful and delicious. Erik was friendly, knowledgeable, and with just two of us, it made for a wonderfully personal experience—a perfect introduction to Nairobi before heading on safari.

Get off to a good start in Nairobi - Erick was our guide for the walking tour of Nairobi. Very lovely, knowledgeable and more than happy to tell stories of his own experiences in the city. This was a great way to spend our first day in Nairobi. Would have been a nice touch if a bottle of water was offered at the start of the tour, but otherwise a great experience
