Top Nairobi Day Trips

We feel lucky to have found this tour! Tim was easy to communicate with for pick up times and let us know what to expect for this tour. He was very knowledgeable. Transportation to the village was comfortable. The Masai Village we visited was authentic, we learned so much. There was no bombarding for having you buy artwork from them. Please extend our appreciation to the families who shared their homes and culture with us. The men and women of the community were very welcoming and very nice.

Gabriel was an absolutely outstanding driver and guide! From the moment we met him, he was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about sharing his country with us. He answered every question we had with incredible knowledge and gave us fascinating insights into the history, culture, and daily life of Kenya. What really impressed us was how he made our ambitious itinerary possible in a single day without ever making us feel rushed. He knew exactly how to plan the route efficiently while still giving us time to enjoy each stop. Along the way, he pointed out places of interest, shared local stories, and made sure we got the most out of our experience. Beyond being an excellent driver, Gabriel has a fantastic personality. He was kind, easy to talk to, professional, and made the entire day enjoyable. His knowledge, warmth, and dedication turned what could have been just transportation into one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, knowledgeable, and truly cares about providing an exceptional experience, I can’t recommend Gabriel highly enough!

David picked me up at the airport and took me to my hotel and Joseph picked me up the next morning and took me back to airport for my next flight. Both men were prompt, courteous and friendly. They made that portion of the trip stress-free, convenient and pleasant

Amazing experience, park packed with animals. Willy our guide was so helpful and you could stand up in the vehicle to get a great view. He said we were very lucky to see almost everything in our wish list - rhinos, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, cheetahs, lions, buffalo and even a fleeting view of a leopard as we were leaving. Incredible bird life too - I would have liked to learn more about them as well. The team were very friendly and proactive with their communication and worked around a delayed taxi from the airport to make it work. Bring your own water and if you want to spend a long time looking at each point consider booking a private tour as this moves quite quickly (which suited me perfectly).

What a fantastic experience from start to finish! The tour was well‑structured, informative, and offered a fascinating look into every stage of Kenyan coffee production, all set within a beautiful and peaceful estate. What truly made the tour exceptional was our guide, Elvis. His passion for coffee, deep knowledge of the process, and engaging way of explaining each step made the experience unforgettable. He was friendly, patient, and always ready to answer any question with enthusiasm and clarity. The coffee tasting at the end was the perfect finale, made even better by understanding the craft behind every cup—thanks to Elvis. If you’re in Nairobi and want a memorable, educational, and genuinely enjoyable activity, the Fairview Coffee Estate tour is an excellent choice, especially with Elvis as your guide :)

Our tour to Hell's Gate National Park and Lake Naivasha was truly one of the most memorable travel experiences we’ve ever had — and the perfect introduction to Kenya and Africa! From the very beginning, everything was flawless. Our driver — and now our new friend — David picked us up from our hotel in Nairobi exactly at the agreed time. Not even one minute late! That level of professionalism immediately set the tone for the day. During the drive to Hell’s Gate, both my wife and I had an incredible conversation with him. We spoke about Kenya’s history, culture, society, and everyday life. We learned so much in just a few hours. Beyond being an amazing person, David is extremely mature for his young age — thoughtful, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about his country. He made us feel comfortable, welcomed, and excited for what was ahead. At Hell’s Gate, we met our guide Gomez — another incredible person! He guided us through the national park on bicycles, and what a unique experience that was. Cycling through a national park surrounded by wildlife is something you don’t experience everywhere in the world — and it is definitely much better than taking a car (which you can do elsewhere). We spotted so many animals: giraffes, zebras, impalas, wildebeests, baboons, and many more. The scenery was breathtaking — especially the beautiful gorge and the dramatic landscapes that famously inspired Disney’s The Lion King. Gomez truly went the extra mile to ensure we had a smooth and unforgettable experience. He was patient, knowledgeable, and even took amazing photos of us that we will treasure forever. We feel incredibly lucky that on the same day we met both David and Gomez — two wonderful people who made the experience exceptional. After leaving Hell’s Gate, we met David again and headed to Lake Naivasha. There, we enjoyed a fantastic boat tour with Nicholas. What we saw on the lake was simply unbelievable. We spotted hundreds of animals: hippos, gnu (wildebeests), fish eagles, pelicans, zebras, and more. One of the highlights was watching the eagles hunt. Nicholas threw fish into the water, and we witnessed these majestic birds dive from far away with incredible precision. Seeing their skill up close was breathtaking. After the boat tour, we relaxed at the lovely Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp, where we enjoyed delicious local food and the warm hospitality of the people there. It was the perfect way to end such an exciting day. This was our first trip to Kenya — and our first time in Africa — as well as our first tour experience in the country. We could not have asked for a better introduction. From the stunning landscapes and wildlife to the warmth and kindness of the people, everything exceeded our expectations. A huge thank you to David, Gomez, and Nicholas for making this day unforgettable. We fully enjoyed every moment and felt truly welcomed. We definitely recommend this tour to everyone visiting Kenya. It is unique, adventurous, educational, and simply magical.

Had a wonderful time site seeing and shopping with our host Obed. He arrived on time and gave us a fantastic overview of the area and what to expect on the tour. He was very accommodating and made sure we arrived at KICC in time for view a beautiful sunset. He took very nice pictures with his camera and shared the photos with us. The vehicle was clean air conditioned and had very nice African music playing during the drive for entertainment. He narrated sites and shared a lot of historical information along the afternoon as well as answered all of our questions. He was very friendly fun and made sure the experience overall was great. The tour was wonderful. Please do book this one you won’t regret it.

This was a great walking our of Nairobi. We spent around 3 hours with Ezekiel and he did an awesome job showing us around. We did this the day before we started our Safari. It was a great way to learn about Kenya and explore the largest city before heading off the see all the animals. I would highly recommend this tour with Ezekiel. W learned a lot and saw so many things that I would not have by just going on our safari.
