Great Safari with excellent guide

5.00We had a great experience with Kichaka Tours during our half-day safari in Nairobi National Park, which we booked due to a long stopover in Nairobi between two flights. Communication with Mercy at the time of booking was clear and smooth, and they were also very flexible with the times when Kenya Airways rebooked our flight. Before the safari we also visited Giraffe Centre, which was a very nice start to the day. Our safari guide Richard was excellent. He gave good and interesting explanations about the park, the animals and the sights along the way. He also really did his best to find good places where we could see the animals and take nice pictures. We were also very lucky and got to see almost all the animals we hoped for, including cheetah, lion, hippo, rhino, giraffe, buffalo and jackals. After the safari we also got a quick city tour in Nairobi before we were dropped off at the airport, which was a very nice way to end the experience. Overall, an amazing experience that we can highly recommend!
Great experience with Maurice!

5.00This is a really awesome and well organized safari experience. Maurice was very punctual and knowledgeable on all of the animals we saw. He was a great driver and we saw tons of animals. I recommend going early right when the park opens so you see more wildlife.

5.00We had six hours in Nairobi as a transfer and we decided to do a tour to Nairobi National Park, which is 15 minutes drive from the airport. When we had some delay, we expended our time in the park without any problems. We saw rhinos, lions, many antelopes, ostriches, hippo's, crocodiles, zebra's, baboons and more. Our guide Carlos was very nice and saw a lot. This was a great stop in Nairobi, before getting further. Recommend this tour operator.
