5Great tour
John provided us with a great introduction to Nairobi. He gave us some history, some information about the sites and current knowledge of Kenya, Nairobi and its people. I highly recommend this tour
5Great Tour
The city tour was great and the tour guide gets 5 stars. The only problem was needing more info on where to meet the guide in the park which was resolved quickly after contacting the tour company and no hotel pickup. I had to take an Uber to the park for the tour.
5Tour review
We enjoyed our tour with Ezekiel. He provided historical context to many of the sites we visited as well as more contemporary anecdotes. He was prepared to answer any questions we had and was very kind.
5Discover Nairobi Like a Local
I I had an amazing walking tour in Nairobi with Ezekiel! We explored many different parts of the city that I probably wouldn’t have discovered on my own. Having a knowledgeable local guide made me feel safe and much more confident walking around. Ezekiel is incredibly friendly, kind, and easy to talk to. We chatted about everything—from Kenyan culture and history and he answered all of my questions with patience and enthusiasm. It felt more like exploring the city with a friend than being on a guided tour. If you’re visiting Nairobi and want an authentic local experience, I highly recommend taking a walking tour with Ezekiel. Thank you for making my first impression of Nairobi so memorable!

About Nairobi
Nairobi is Kenya's energetic capital and the starting point for East African safari, with a national park where wildlife roams beneath the city skyline.
Nairobi National Park lies just beyond the suburbs, and its lions, rhinos, giraffes and buffalo can be seen with skyscrapers on the horizon. Close by, an orphanage raises young elephants rescued from across Kenya, and the Giraffe Centre lets visitors meet rare Rothschild's giraffes eye to eye from a raised platform.
Top-ranked sights in Nairobi: Nairobi National Park, Giraffe Centre, Lake Naivasha.
