A day we will remember forever! - Rustic Nature planned everything just as we wanted. I wanted to take my 4 children (aged 6-11), husband and father in law on a safari day. Taking in Nairobi national park, the elephant orphanage and the giraffe centre with lunch at carnivore. I particularly wanted an open sided vehicle for the national park game drive so the kids could get a better view rather than a pop up roof they wouldn’t be tall enough to see out of. Rustic nature organised this all perfectly for us and we didn’t have to wait long in the queues at the gate in the morning. We told Kelvin our guide that we especially wanted to see lions and rhinos as a lot of the other animals we had already seen at Lake Naivasha. He didn’t disappoint! We got to see both white and black rhinos close up, and a wonderful group of lionesses with several lion cubs…truly special! We saw lots of other animals too thanks to our guide’s knowledge of the park. I’d been to Nairobi national park previously and didn’t really enjoy it as we didn’t see that much but it really helps when your guide knows the park well. At the elephant orphanage Kelvin made sure we got a spot at the front so we could all get as close as possible to the baby elephants, and then at the giraffe centre we got a member of staff to ourselves to help us get lovely photos feeding the giraffes as well as some info about the giraffes and work of the centre. I feel this is all down to Kelvin and the connections he has with the place you visit that help you have that extra special experience. It was truly a day we will remember forever!

Day safari, elephants and giraffes. - Brilliant day trip. Great communication by WhatsApp before the trip. National park - found out what we really wanted to see and made sure we did. Gave just the right time at each spot and always checked whether we were happy to move on. Knowledgable about everything we saw, including birds. When in the park you see fancier vehicles, but this one is actually kitted out perfectly, with good high raisable roof, grab rails right where you need them, pouches for binoculars & cameras, charging points, plenty of space, & spotlessly clean. Elephants - timed our arrival to perfection and escorted us to viewing spot. Lunch - found out what kind of thing we wanted and took us to the perfect place. Giraffes - escorted us in. Kelvin seems to know everyone at every place and they’re all happy to see him. Sensible driving! Impeccably polite, genuinely keen to make sure we had a good day.

Fantastic day trip, thoroughly recommend Rustic Nature and especially Kelvin - We had an amazing day. Kelvin was an excellent guide, and looked after us very well. There were just the 2 of us on the trip. Picked up at our hotel - messaging to keep us informed of his eta which was appreciated. We saw so many animals in the national park including rhino, giraffe, lion (with cubs), hippos, crocodiles. Elephant orphanage was brilliant and so was the giraffe centre - didn’t realise I was going to feed them! Also did an optional stop at the Kobe Tough bead centre, and a lovely lunch stop. Can’t rate this trip and Kelvin highly enough.

Douglas was an AMAZING... - Douglas was an AMAZING tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and was very thoughtful in making sure we saw all the best angles of the animals. He took our photos and even had the women’s bead factory sing me Happy Birthday. He was very friendly, arrived on time and made our safari trip one too remember.

제일 효율적인 사파리 체험 - I had an incredible experience in the National Park. It was definitely worth waking up early in the morning! Before it got crowded, I got to watch lions, rhinos, zebras, and giraffes up close. My experienced guide also took me to the best spot in the elephant orphanage. **** For travelers visiting in March, I recommend bringing a warm jacket for the chilly morning in the National Park. Also, when purchasing an e-citizen park entry ticket, it’s better to ask a travel agent about the required details in advance. 아주 좋은 경험이었습니다! 왕복시간도 적고 네시간 정도로 사파리 체험할수 있다는게 매우 효율적입니다!! 미리 입장료를 사야합니다!

Nairobi National Park, Elephant & Giraffe Centre Day Tour - I had a wonderful day visiting the Nairobi National Park, the elephant orphanage, beads factory and the Giraffe Centre. My guide Kelvin was fantastic and ensured me always the best spots for viewing the animals or taking pictures. In the orphanage he helped me to get a nice front row spot for the best views. And at the giraffe center he made sure i had plenty of food to feed the giraffes. During the whole trip Kelvin was very knowledgeable and gives you the time you need for looking at the animals or shopping beads. Recommend!

The Best Day Ever! - We took a day tour with Kelvin - unforgettable! In Nairobi National Park, we saw lions, rhinos, giraffes, water buffalo, zebras, gazelles, egrets, impalas, hippos, crocodiles and more! For every animal, Kelvin parked the van perfectly for the most epic photos. If beautiful photos are your thing, Kelvin is your guy. After the park tour, we went to the elephant orphanage which should not be missed. Our stop at the Kobe Bead factory gave us a real sense of how Kenyans support their local craft community and each other - beautiful products and an inspiring message of hope and resilience. Lunch at the Courtyard Kitchen, a stop at the Utamaduni Craft Center, and a visit to the Giraffe Center rounded out our amazing day. I cannot say enough great things about the experience we had with Kelvin. His guiding skills are top-notch, and he is very knowledgeable about Kenya and all things related to animals and conservation. We're planning to come back to Kenya and hire Kelvin as our guide out to the Masai Mara. If you only have one day in Nairobi (or multiple days for a bigger tour), hiring Kelvin will be the best investment of your trip!
