Within the tour, I will take you to the tallest building in Nairobi and let you see Nairobi from above. You will get to see the statue of the first president of Kenya. Depending on the time, this is also where you get to see sunrise and sunset.

We will see where the US Embassy was bombed in 1998.

We will see the office of the president of Kenya and the parliament of Kenya.

We will see and talk about all the monuments that are so important in the history of Nairobi and Kenya as a country.

We will then go to Masaai Market, where you will buy African handcrafts, souvenirs, curios, and many more. My job here is to make sure you get everything you need at a local price.

I will recommend a restaurant after we finish, and after that, I will make sure you get an Uber back to your hotel.

Very nice walking tour, Calvince is very knowledgeable guide and shares a lot of interesting information about Kenyan history. Going to the market is not such a pleasant experience if you are not a fan of intrusive salesmen and bargaining. Better places for your souvenirs and gifts are Langata Link and Spinners Web, also nice for a good coffee and lunch.
Awesome tour

Calvince is an excellent tour guide. He is highly knowledgeable and delivers a quality service. He was prompt and on time and met me at my hotel and made sure I was safe at all times. He answered all my questions and gave me an interesting insight into Nairobi culture. Highly recommended if you have a couple of days in Nairobi after your safari.
A fun and very interesting walking tour. Highly recommended!

Calvince was a great guide! He was very polite and knowledgeable. He was there to answer all our questions and showed us around some of Nairobi’s monuments and explained their historical significance. He was very attentive and we had a lovely afternoon walking the streets of Nairobi with him. Definitely recommend him as a tour guide!

I was lucky enough to have been the only person on the tour so I got Calvince's full attention. He is full of all the historical, cultural and knowledge of the city of Nairobi. I highly recommend his tour. The highlight for me was going to the top of the Kenyatta International Convention Centre and appreciating the Nairobi skyline.
Great tour of Nairobi!

Calvince What a great tour! My girlfriend and I wanted to see the city, but we wondered if it was safe. Then we ended up at Calvince! And I would recommend him to everyone! Calvince guided us today through Nairobi's CBD (central business district). An interesting tour where everything is covered, including: history, sight seeing, food and of course lots of fun. Calvince really knows how to explain everything very clearly so that everyone can understand it. Calvince is someone who pays close attention to you and knows how to answer all your questions. My girlfriend and I felt really comfortable in the city, partly thanks to Calvince. Thanks again for the enjoyable and informative tour. We really enjoyed it! At the end, Calvince has a nice surprise, but for that you have to book the tour yourself. Highly recommended!!
