Excellent guide & vehicle - This was a great experience… early start with the national park… plenty of wildlife including lions and black and white rhinos. Kelvin our guide and driver (it’s his business) was excellent and worked really hard to get us sight of a black rhino. His jeep was new, immaculate and included a couple of nice comfort touches. Communication ahead of the day was good with messages answered promptly. We ran bang to time for the elephant centre and he made sure we were in the best spot for feeding time. Our trip was sadly cut short due our children being ill but Kelvin was great dealing and helping with this. I’d advise buying national park tickets in advance as advised by Kelvin to avoid queueing when you are at the entrance gate. Would highly recommend!!!

Best Local Tour Operator in Kenya! - Our family—including three children under 6 and my parents—had the BEST three days in Nairobi with Kelvin! He helped kick off our Kenya trip and set the bar incredibly high for the rest of our vacation. Everything was seamless from start to finish. Kelvin went above and beyond to make sure our boys had an amazing time. Even our autistic son, who can be slow to warm up to new people, quickly connected with him. Kelvin was incredibly patient, kind, and wonderful with all of our children. He is extremely knowledgeable and made sure we had the best experience everywhere we went. From finding the perfect spot to watch the elephants at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to sharing insights throughout each tour, he truly made every stop memorable. For reference, we booked day tours to Nairobi National Park, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, the Giraffe Centre, Kazuri Beads, Hells Gate National Park, and Lake Naivasha. Every excursion was well organized and exceeded our expectations. The next time we visit Kenya, we will book our entire trip with Kelvin—from multi-day safaris to lodging and everything in between. We can't recommend him highly enough!

Kelvin was wonderful!! - Kelvin was an amazing tour guide. He knew how to find so many animals, and really knew Nairobi National Park very well. He was on time, and kept in touch via WhatsApp as to his ETA. His vehicle was also very new, and the seats were comfortable. He also had cold water available for us, and blankets on board. We were able to pay all of the Park fees with our credit cards, so you do not have to carry so much cash with you. Also, when we went to the Sheldrick animal orphanage, he walked us in and got us situated at a good spot for an amazing view of the baby elephants. So many other Tour guides just dropped their people off at the front gate and left them on their own. Thanks Kelvin! Kelvin hooked us up with a private tour at the giraffe center. We were able to feed the giraffes and learn so much about them. Shout out to SHALI as a wonderful guide at the giraffe center. Also, Kelvin was so knowledgeable about all the animals we saw, including little tidbits about each one as we went along. Amazing knowledge, friendly demeanor, and excellent at finding animals. Definitely five stars, we would go again.

Brilliant day - Thanks to Douglas for an amazing tour. We choose the 4 wheel jeep and it was worth it as roads were very bumpy. Our day was very well organized and we enjoyed every moment. We saw plenty of wildlife and learnt alot. Asante Sana

Fantastic day sightseeing in Nairobi! - We thoroughly enjoyed our Nairobi tour! This was the perfect way to see many of the city highlights on a tight timeframe. Our tour guide, Nicole, was prompt and professional! She managed to get us right in front of the animals in Nairobi National Park, including seeing rhinos. We loved the stops at Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and the Giraffe Center. The Kobe Tough Bead and Leather stop was also a hit with our family! Before booking our tour, we were allowed to select a restaurant of our choosing when booking the after requesting, which made it extremely nice to be able to set our own itinerary. The tour company provided us with the time to make a reservation, which worked perfectly into our schedule the day of our tour. Picking a day tour of Nairobi can be daunting with so many choices, but I can tell you you won't regret cooking with Rustic Nature Tours! Asante sana, Nicole - we had a phenomenal day because of you!

10/10 would recommend! - The experience was carefully curated. From Nairobi National Park to the Elephant Orphanage that’s located inside the park and the complimentary location then to the Giraffe Center. It was an activity packed day and we got to see so much in just that one day of exploring. If you want to make the most of the time you have in Nairobi, I’d definitely recommend this tour!

Fantastic Day Tour - If you are looking for a top tier tour company, I would highly recommend Rustic Nature Tours. We were fortunate to have Calvin as our guide, an excellent birder who was very knowledgeable about where to find both the unique birds and animals in Nairobi National Park. He is professional, organized, and quite personable. He even surprised us with a beautiful outdoor lunch cafe that was teaming with birds.
