When looking for half day nairobi park safari Book this one with confidence

5.00Kelvin was great. Very knowledgeable about all the animals. Good driver. Highly recommend Utamandani courtyard restaurant for lunch. Went in May so park wasn't too full. Grasses were high though because of rainy season limiting view of some animals. Great for a half day excursion when in nairobi. Not the same as going for an overnight on serngheti though
Great guide, lots of animals!

5.00Booking was very smooth, quick feedback and informative (and helpful in customizing to our needs). Kelvin was a great guide, super knowledgeable and very service minded. Pick-up on time, comfortable jeep - in short our strongest recommendations in using Rustic Nature Tours (and ask for Kelvin as your guide)!

5.00We had a fantastic time on our safari with Rustic Nature Tours! We only had one day in Nairobi and the Safari tour of Nairobi National Park covered everything! We saw all the animals we wanted to and even more we didn’t think we would get to see! Our guide was super knowledgeable and was amazing at getting us the best vantage points to see the animals. He was lovely and took great care of us throughout the day. Rustic Nature Tours were incredibly easy to book with, even though we booked fairly last minute. Would definitely recommend for anyone thinking of doing this tour!

5.00Highly recommend this tour! Our audience, Douglas, was very knowledgeable and we saw so much in the national park during our drive. Douglas also got us a great spot for the elephant orphanage, which was also a great experience. This tour is also a great option if travelling with young children
The best safari tour in Nairobi! Highly recommended

5.00Incredible experience start to finish. Kelvin is super friendly and knowledgeable about wildlife. His expert knowledge of the park meant I was able to see a wide variety of wildlife including Zebras, Lions, Rhinos, Hippos and more. The stop at the elephant sanctuary is a must where you can see 15 rescued baby elephants. Highly recommend Kelvin for this tour, he did everything he could to make sure I got some great views and pictures.
Amazing experience!

5.00Had an amazing experience! We saw lions, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and many more. Kelvin was a very knowledgeable, professional and friendly guide. He told us about all the wildlife and made sure we got the right angles for the best pictures. He also got us to the elephant orphanage in time to get a really good spot at the front. Can’t recommend Rustic Nature Tours enough!
Wonderful experience!

5.00I was very happy with the tour. Our guide Douglas was friendly, knowledgeable, prompt, and very helpful. The tour was even better than I hoped it would be. We saw a wide variety of animals, and ended with 4 lions trying to get a baby rhino away from its mother. (They didn’t succeed!). I highly recommend this tour and our guide, Douglas.
Such an amazing day!

5.00We had such an amazing day! Kelvin was on time, kind and extremely knowledgeable. He did a great job trying to get us the best views of animals across the park. We mentioned that one person in our group was interested in birds and he taught us many new species. It’s hard to think how the day could have been better. Thanks so much, Kelvin!
