Convenient, magical - Had a long layover and booked this last minute. So glad I did! Nicole kept our bags in the car and took us back to the airport after the drive. What a drive! Saw a family of rhinos and a pride of lions. Nicole also recommended a Kenyan cuisine restaurant when we asked. She was very knowledgeable, funny, and we really enjoyed our time with her and the tour. Recommend to everyone

Great Safari Close to the City - Our driver Daniel drove us around for 4 hours around the huge park and we saw many animals: giraffes, rhinos, hippos, baboons, ostriches, impalas, elands, crocodiles, storks, geese, zebras, wildebeest, hart hogs (Pumba). The park has no elephants and we did not get to see any lions or buffaloes. Daniel even drove us to a nice Kenyan restaurant for lunch after the safari and waited for us to eat lunch before taking us back to the hotel. Very nice and convenient safari I strongly recommend.

Excellent guide for Nairobi Nat’l Park - Calvin provided us with an awesome private tour of Nairobi National Park. We saw many baboons, rhinos, lions, hippos, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, ostriches, and several species of birds and antelope. Calvin was extremely knowledgeable about all of the animals we saw which really heightened our experience. It was truly amazing to see so many animals in such a short time and distance from our hotel. We highly recommend this tour, especially with Calvin as a guide.

Great tour! - What a great day with Douglas. He is so knowledgeable and kind, we learned so much and saw so many animals. The vehicle was perfect because we could stand up and take pictures through the roof, but it also rained and a bit and it was nice to close it then. We would absolutely recommend this tour if you have time in Nairobi.

Exceeded Expectations - Wow! Today gifted more than expected! I saw TONS of rhinos, lions, & giraffes, as well as other animals. I told my guide Joel that I wanted to see rhinos & I have pictures for days! I can’t recommend this trip enough. Joel was fantastic. I appreciated that he made the effort to make sure it was special & even took several pictures of me. If you’re wanting a private trip to Nairobi National Park, this is the trip to book.

Nairobi National Park - The trip to Nairobi National Park was absolutely amazing! Kelvin, our guide, really understood the assignment and did an excellent job educating us about the different animals. We were also lucky enough to spot a wide variety of wildlife that day, leaving us with more than enough photos to remember the experience.

Wonderful triple! - Today was a wonderful day! I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Nairobi National Park and the coffee farm. I was lucky enough to see two of the Big Five: lions and rhinos. My guide and driver, Joel, was incredibly nice and polite. He even went out of his way to try and find a buffalo for me. I highly recommend Rustic Nature Tour.

Best Transportation and Tour - Calvin is amazing! He worked with my schedule to give me the most amazing tour of Nairobi National Park! His knowledge of the wildlife was astounding! He was patient and worked hard to show me all the animals! He picked me up from the airport and dropped me off and was always prompt - managing time perfectly. It was easy to communicate with him on WhatsApp and I never had to wait long for a reply. I can’t say enough good things about this trustworthy man’s expertise and professionalism!

Unforgettable Half-Day Adventure - As a visitor from the U.K. I recently did a private tour of Nairobi National Park with some friends, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Being so close to nature, with the city skyline visible in the distance, was surreal. Our guide was knowledgeable without being overbearing, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of the park while providing helpful context when needed. The highlight was spotting some of the iconic animals in their natural habitat, something I never thought I’d experience so close to a major city. It’s a must-do for anyone visiting Nairobi, worth every minute!
