Great excursion - Very enjoyable. Pick up and drop off at our hotel in Gigiri. Great driver. Very communicative. Nairobi national Park was wonderful. Lots of rhinos, giraffes, water buffalo, hippos, zebras, etc. Very interesting being so close to the city! The Giraffe, sanctuary and elephant orphanage are great. Don’t miss those! Just a heads up that admission to the national Park, the elephant orphanage, and the giraffe sanctuary are all extra. You can pay for the admission to the national park online (recommended) but admission to the elephant orphanage in a giraffe sanctuary need to be in cash to your driver. You will receive an message about this the day before the trip.

Great day in Nairobi - The tour starts early, but is so worth it. Our guide, Jonathan, was great and did his best to get us up close to the animals so we could take good pictures! He also shared some interesting facts and was excellent at identifying the animals we were seeing. In the national park, we were able to see lions, rhinos, water buffalo, hippos, crocs, giraffes, zebras, and so many types of antelope - well worth the trip! The elephants, baby rhino, and baby zebra at the elephant orphanage were so cute. Watching the elephants feed and frolic in the mud was a lot of fun. The giraffe centre was a quick visit, but again, memorable. Feeding the giraffes was a great experience and the people at the centre are helpful in guiding you to a good picture. Ended the day going to the bead and leather factory. The beads were all hand made and beautiful. Excellent day spent in Nairobi.

Nice experience but costs a lot - Good to see. Less good that you first pay admission of more than 700 to the national park, then Sheldrick also charges admission

Just book it! - Absolutely incredible. The game drive at Nairobi National Park was a perfect introduction to Kenya's wildlife. We saw lions, impala, rhino, zebra, giraffes, and more. Adding the adorable elephants at the Elephant sanctuary, we saw 4 of the Big 5. It's a long day but it's incredibly worth it. Our guide Harrison was fantastic! We learned and saw so much. We recommend paying in cash because it speeds up the process for everything. Harrison took us to an ATM on the way to another pickup so we could get cash. Full service!

Will tempt your palate in this farmer maasai watering hole. Top sighs include the Karen biixen museum giraffe center and the bla - Known as the safari capital of Africa Nairobi is an energetic, modern city that serves as a fascinating introduction to both wildlife and markets bustle, and a melange of restaurants

Well worth it :-) - The trip went really great. Japheth , our driver and your guide, promptly picked us up. He was very organized and knowledgeable. He patiently responded to all our questions and we got to see all the animals except the hippos. Overall it was a fantastic trip and the kids loved it. That said, communication prior to tour wasn't great, I contacted operator but didn't get a response until just a few hours before going to bed.

Information about pricing not clear - We didn’t understand all of the costs involved. We ended up spending over $400 for an excursion that was from 10:00 am to 3 pm. We did enjoy everything we did. My biggest complaint is getting to the park and having to pay $80 per person to get into the park even though we were just seeing the orphanage for elephants, which was an addition $20 per person. Trip Advisor/Viator should have told us to download prior to departure to pay for the park. I’m not sure if the giraffe park was worth going to because it is $12 per person to feed a giraffe, which was 10 minutes. The Bombas show was better than expected. $20 per person was well worth the show. The young adults were really into their show and full of energy and always smiling. We also were taken to the bead shop, which was also a wonderful experience. Bring lots of money.

Tishmac Safaris is A Fake Company - Tishmac Safaris is not real. Shame on me for not seeing through it, but I thought TripAdvisor actually vetted the company services offered through their website, they clearly do not. We were supposed to be picked up at 6am, we waited until 6:30am before we called the company providing the tours, phone number does not exist, and neither does the website. They never showed up. Your best bet is to book directly through your hotel. This was disgraceful. A complete scam
