Absolutely recommendable 👍👍👍 - We can recommend the Safarilinks Africa tour without reservation! Although we booked very spontaneously by phone the evening before, everything worked out wonderfully.
We were picked up at our apartment by Douglas at 6:00 a.m. and taken directly to Nairobi National Park. Our guide Sam was waiting for us there in a huge off-road vehicle. Since we hadn't managed to get an ECITZEN account and buy tickets for the national park despite numerous attempts, Douglas kindly agreed to buy them for us. This was no problem at all.
As another family had canceled, we were lucky and drove through the national park alone with Sam. He knew his way around really well and explained everything to us really well. We saw everything: lions, giraffes, antelopes, zebras, ostriches. Rhinos, hippos and water buffalo.
We drove through the national park with Sam from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
When we spontaneously wanted to visit the Sheldrick Wildlife Found elephant breeding station, Douglas was able to get us tickets.
Simply brilliant!
All in all, we would definitely book the tour again and can really recommend it to everyone.
It was the crowning conclusion to our trip to Kenya.

Nairobi's top sights in one day. - The trip was an excellent opportunity to see some of the top sights of Nairobi in one day. The staff was super friendly and knew a great deal about the animals at Nairobi Naqtional Park. The driver also gave me lots of time to explore the giraffe center and the Blixen Museum at my own pace. Safarilinks Africa even went the extra mile after my sight-seeing to reimburse me for an accidental double booking I'd made.

Good experience - Our driver Alex was picking us up at our hotel at the exact right time.
The safari in national park was great. In 3 hours we saw lots of different animals: many giraffes, lions, big and mini rhinos, zebras, gaselles, antilopes, impalas and other smalles animals and birds. The driver always tried to find a great picture place for us.
The elephant orphanage is a worth to visit. You will spend there one hour and we'll see most of the habitants: we saw one baby rhino and 21 different aged and sized elephants. A guide will introduce every animal and talk about history and theyre everyday life.
We visited maasai souvenir shop and a restaurant close to giraffe centre-not really worth to visit. You will pay a lot more for the souvenires comparing other places.
The giraffe center is definitely worth the visit. Great experience feeding the animals and got to see them very closely.
We were very pleased with the tour arrangement and the driver and would book another tour with them.

Great tour with Steve, totally recommended - Steve, the tour guide from the operator I booked from, was very punctual to pick me up from my hotel in Nairobi. Everything was great! We were waiting for other passengers, but in the meantime he drove me through the park and we saw a few animals. Then the elephant orphanage was a great experience, so as the Giraffe center and the museum, and the jewelry factory where masai women work at.
Steve walked the extra mile for me, he even gave me some insights about the country, we had a good chat about politics and society. I very much enjoyed the conversations.
Thanks again, Steve for making this day so good!

Bumpy ride with experienced driver - The guy driving the van is extremely experienced. We went to places where even Land Cruisers were rarely seen, and were first to see most of the unique wildlife situations.
However, the ride is extremely bumpy, so expect to hold tight and shake a LOT. Also, the guide rarely told anything about what we saw.
5 stars are knowing the price. If this would be more expensive, then I would give 4.

Safari with girafe - It was good, but it had one major problem. Ridic was really late. He said there were reasons for it, but I don't know how much I should believe it. In the end, he arrived for nad with a 2-hour delay and I was quite upset. On the other hand, he was a guide who was always willing and devoted himself to us the whole time. We fed the giraffes it was cool. We saw baby elephants, that was nice, but I would soon forgive myself. During the safari, he tried to find different animals, which he succeeded in, and I rate his work as quite good. If you choose him, confirm the time with him a day or two in advance, so that you are sure that he will arrive at the given time. Then it can be recommended.

Great Nairobi national park, but not serious offer of Viator - Nairobi National Park, Giraffe Center, Baby Elephant Center were really nice and we enjoyed them.
The trip was not organized according to plan at all. First, we visited the center of giraffes and small elephants, and the guide informed us that this was the end of the trip for us. But our main goal was the Nairobi National Park, so we asked why that is. The guide answered us that out of 4 options - Nairobi Park, the giraffe center, the elephant center and the Karin Blixen museum, we are only entitled to two. He then offered us to go with us to Nairobi Park for a fee of 100 USD, which we paid him, as Nairobi Park was our priority. We did not visit the Blixen museum at all.
The Viator offer did not correspond to reality at all and we will request a refund of part of the money.

Not pleasant at all - Do not waste your money paying for the half day tour because even though you pay for the National park safari, you will not get to do the National park safari, rather, they will take you to the baby elephant only, and you will pay additional $63, to only see the baby elephant, even though you are paying to go to the National park. There is no reason for this company to sell this tour as half day and full day. It is merely deceptive. You may as well create another tour and sell the baby elephant program exclusively rather than being deceptive on a half day tour. The itinerary is also not the same when you do the half day tour, so make sure you book other tours that will allow you see the safari for half day, and not this, if it’s a half day safari inclusive tour you seek.
