Wonderful tour - Mwose gave an excellent tour of the city!! He was so knowledgeable, we learned so much about the history of Nairobi and Kenya. You’ll have so much fun you won’t realize you’ve been walking around for a few hours. I really recommend doing this tour when you come to Nairobi as it’s a great way to get an introduction to the city!

Don’t Leave Without Doing This Tour - I can’t believe I almost missed out on this experience. There are two things that you MUST do while in Kenya this walking tour and a visit to the Masai! Yes safaris are cool and I did that but had I not experienced this tour and the Masai tour, I would’ve missed out on so much of what makes Kenya, specifically Nairobi special. Ezekiel is an old soul and puts you at peace as you’re walking around and learning about the city. I wish I’d booked this on my first day in Nairobi because after the tour, I felt connected to the city in a way that I hadn’t previously.

Clear explanation of history - The tour was a wonderful mix of history and everyday life in Kenya explained very well by Moses. I was able to get a feel of what it means to live here and the many reasons why Nairobi is the city it is today

Walking but nice - The tour guide (Ezequiel) was very attentive and patient, explaining the history of each place visited. I didn't even realize I walked for 3 hours. It was perfect.

Afternoon Nairobi Tour - I can’t recommend this tour strongly enough. I had a free afternoon in Nairobi and was hoping to see the city. Ezekiel was a wonderful guide—not only very knowledgeable, but also kind and thoughtful. It was a fantastic way to experience Nairobi!
