The Best!

Mark_P, Sep 2026

Interaction with the giraffes is spectacular! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Also, he went out the way and made a couple extra stops to accommodate my wife's shopping and an added tour to a bead company that supports single mothers and combats FGM!

Memorable day

Maria_M, Sep 2026

Our experience was amazing! Our guide Kelvin was spectacular. He was super friendly, knowledgeable and kept us safe while offering us an amazing time. Plus he is an amazing photographer. We are so glad we did this tour with Nivlek Tours and we got Kelvin as our guide. We also had the pleasure of meeting Mercy in the beginning of our tour who was also very nice and friendly. I will definitely recommend this company, guide and tour. Based on our experience today, I would have booked my entire itinerary with them if it wasn’t because we have a previously purchased package. Thank you Kelvin for the memorable experience!

Great visit to the giraffe centre

Great experience feeding the giraffes. My guide was super friendly and super knowledgeable. We also then went to the bead making factory which was also great as well. A lovely morning spent

Late Pickup had to reschedule

David_P, Jun 2026

Tour operator called me while I was outside awaiting pickup and told me the driver will be there in 30 minutes. So the driver will be 30 minutes late? 🤨 the excuse was traffic. That’s not MY problem is it ? The driver should have left earlier. I called Viator to request a refund, but instead we decided to reschedule for the next day. Tour was ok no complaints. I would not use this tour operator again because they don’t value my time. A few minutes late is understandable, 30 minutes late is unsatisfactory.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Your time is valuable, and we deeply regret that this caused frustration and disrupted your schedule. We are glad that we were able to reschedule your Giraffe Centre visit for the following day and that the tour itself went well without further issues. However, we take your comments seriously and are addressing this with our dispatch team to ensure more accurate arrival windows and better punctuality moving forward.

Fun experience for a Nairobi layover

Amy_W, Mar 2026

I had a long layover in Nairobi so I decided to try to make the best of it and booked this experience. It involved three stops – the giraffe center, a souvenir/artisan shop, and a women’s co-op where they make handmade beads. I was not expecting anything other than the giraffe center, so I enjoyed the other activities, although I didn’t really like being made to shop at the souvenir place. The giraffe center was interesting and it was really fun to feed the giraffes, and I really loved the bead- making place because it benefits women and the process was fascinating to learn about. It was a positive way to spend a short layover in Nairobi.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

We are thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience overall and that you enjoyed the unique stops we curated for you. We're especially glad you loved the Giraffe Centre and the women's bead-making . Supporting local artisans and women-led initiatives is a core part of our mission, so it’s wonderful to know the process and the cause resonated with you We hope to welcome you back for a longer stay in the future.
