Nairobi tour: Giraffe Center, Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, Kazuri beads, with optional Karen Blixen or Nairobi National Park game drive.
“The tour was great! After I got picked up from the hotel, we picked up others. It took about an hour and a half before we were at the elephant center. We were one of the first groups there, so we got front row. We then went to the giraffe center and lunch was at the Karen Blixen garden, which was beautiful and the food was great. I did the added tour of the museum, but no one else in my group did. My driver took them back to their hotels, but the museum tour was so short that I ended up waiting for him to come back to get…”

A small-group walk through Nairobi Downtown led by former street kids. Hear real stories, share a local lunch, and support change.
“We really enjoyed the tour through downtown. It was very interesting to get to know more about the personal stories of our tour guide. It would have been interesting to switch guides halfway through the tour to also hear a bit of a different story. We felt safe at all times as there was only two visitors per guide and extra kolleagues having an eye on the situation. For us it gelt best to start the tour in the afternoon and finish with a nice kenyan meal”
Walk Nairobi’s CBD with a private art historian guide, from Jevanjee Gardens and Jamia Mosque to City Market and the KICC rooftop view.
“We had an excellent experience on our walking tour with Michael. He was incredibly knowledgeable and professional throughout the entire tour. Despite our limited timeline, Michael was very accommodating and adjusted the itinerary to ensure we could still see all the key sights. One of the highlights was visiting the rooftop of the KCC, where we enjoyed a stunning view of the city. As tourists unfamiliar with Nairobi, we felt very safe walking through the city with Michael. He guided us confidently and shared fascinating insights into the history of Nairobi. Thank you, Michael, for a memorable experience!”
