Truly awe inspiring - Great tour, fantastic really!! Nairobi National Park is small and tall grass so not the easiest to see animals but the guides are great and we saw loads. The elephant orphanage was a truly awesome experience and y partners favourite was petting the baby rhino!! My fave was feeding the giraffes and learning about their individual characters!

Vehicle used not up to standard - The tour operators were very nice but the vehicle used for the safari tour was completely inadequate, especially in the rain. I didn't start several times. The rooftop didn't work properly. We almost got stuck in the mud a few times. Because the car wouldn't start we were late to the elephant rescue center. There is a stop on the tour at a tourist trap, a bead making compound and store that I wish we had skipped altogether.
