Fantastic experience! - It was my first ever safari and I absolutely loved it. Obed was very knowledgeable and also super funny. I had a fantastic time with him. I learned a lot, saw all of the animals and came back home with a huge smile on my face. I was not expecting the park to be this big and having so many beautiful spots.

Amazing safari drive and downtown walking tour. Highly recommend! - An incredible full day experience with Obed! He was generous to offer a combination of morning safari drive and afternoon walking tour, which was an amazing introduction to the city, I highly recommend! Started the morning getting picked up from airport and headed straight to a game drive in Nairobi national park, Obed was very knowledgeable about each of the animals we saw and stopped for. His passion for the space is so genuine, we all sat together taking videos of the rhinos and giraffes! He has a great van with a top that can lift up and you are able to stand and look out when stopping to scan the horizon or take photos of animals. We went for lunch at a restaurant afterwards (which was delicious and had vegetarian options) and headed into the downtown core for a walking tour in the city. A great time learning more about the spaces, changes, and growth of the city through the years. Went up to the top of KICC to scan all of Nairobi which was very cool. Obed got us back to our hotel afterwards as well. Overall an incredible experience, all because of Obeds extensive knowledge and experience within the park and city. Highly recommend anyone to take his tour!!

Incredible safari tour - The safari was incredible. We were very lucky to see most of the big game (giraffe, lion, buffalo, zebra, impala) and more. I highly recommend this tour. Obed was very friendly and told us so much about Kenya and Nairobi National Park. I really recommend this safari tour for anyone who has a long layover in Nairobi. Exceeded all my expectations, wonderful!

Great and knowledgeable hosts! - Obed and Moses were great safari guides. They were nice, on-time, informative and knowledgeable, and they clearly wanted to make sure we had a good time. Even despite the rain at the beginning, we saw lots of animals - rhinos, giraffes, zebras, multiple types of antelope, jackals, lions, ostriches, hippos, monkeys and lots of birds. Would definitely recommend and book them again!

Great Experience in Nairobi National Park - Amed did a great job of finding all of the key game and had a lot of knowledge about each. . We saw lions, hippos, rhinos, buffaloes, giraffes, gazelles, impalas and more. One I didn’t expect to see was a jackal. The park is massive at over 100 square kilometers. Having someone like Ames who knows his way completely and safely around the Park made for a great experience.

The Lion King by the roadside. - The experience was amazing. We had so much fun seeing the wild animals, it wasy first time seeing the Giraffe with a different prints . My highlight was seeing the lion King sitting at the middle of the road. We got to see three lions in different places. Our tour driver/guide was very friendly and had a wealth of knowledge about the animals in the packs, their names. We enjoyed ourselves and passed deep into the park courtesy of driver. We plan to go back and experience the wild again.

Thrilling experience that exceeded my expectations - The safari exceeded my expectations. We were lucky enough to have a group of 6 lions walk right beside our vehicle. It was thrilling being so close. Our guide Obed was extremely knowledgeable and made the safari that much more fascinating. Thank you for the great time!
