    Exceptional Safari Experience with Jackson!

    We had an amazing experience with this company during our Nairobi National Park safari. They arrived early to pick us up at our hotel in a comfortable safari jeep and were incredibly helpful from the very beginning. My friend and I both travel with electric wheelchairs, and they assisted us with everything we needed, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Our guide, Jackson, was absolutely outstanding. His knowledge, professionalism, patience, and kindness made this one of the highlights of our trip. He went above and beyond to give us the best possible safari experience. At one point, we were following a lion, and Jackson skillfully navigated difficult terrain to keep us safely close while always making us feel comfortable and secure. Thanks to him, we had unforgettable wildlife sightings and an incredible experience. If you book with this company, I truly hope you get Jackson as your guide. He is exceptional and a real credit to the company. Thank you for an unforgettable day in Nairobi National Park!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly means the world to us. We are delighted to hear that you and your friend had such a memorable and comfortable experience with us at Nairobi National Park. Providing accessible, stress-free adventures for all our guests is something we are deeply committed to, so knowing that our team was able to support you throughout your journey is incredibly rewarding. Jackson will be especially thrilled to read your kind words. His passion for wildlife, dedication to guest satisfaction, and professionalism are qualities we are very proud of, and we're delighted that he made your safari so special. We'll be sure to pass along your compliments to him. Thank you for choosing Live in Love Kenya Tours and Travel and for trusting us to be part of your Kenyan adventure. We hope to welcome you back again for another unforgettable safari and many more incredible wildlife encounters. Safe travels, and we look forward to seeing you again! – The Live in Love Kenya Tours and Travel Team

    Poorly Organized

    The travel company was very unorganized. They were 10-15 mins late, they ran out of gas after picking us up which was a 45 min delay, they forgot about the elephant orphanage and the giraffe sanctuary. After reminding them we were able to go to the giraffe sanctuary but were not able to visit the elephant orphanage. Then there was issues with payment at the national park were they were trying to say us time but them we had to stop at another store to pay which delayed us more. The safari drive was great though.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the delays and inconveniences you experienced during your tour. We appreciate your patience and are taking steps to improve our service and coordination. We are glad you enjoyed the safari drive and hope to welcome you again for a much smoother experience.

    It was a great day and loved the elephant orphanage.

    Drivers were great. They stopped when we needed them to. Experience was good. I would have loved to of seen a few more animals. Was looking for the lions but didn’t see any. The elephants put on a good show for us. We rode about 2 1/2 hours through the park and stayed about a hour at the elephant preserve. We got to pet the elephants. It was great. Everyone seemed happy to be there. Petting the Elephants. It wasn’t too crowded. It was good.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re happy you enjoyed the drive and the amazing time with the elephants,they truly are special. While wildlife sightings can vary, we’re glad the overall experience was great and memorable. We hope to welcome you again for another adventure, hopefully with lions next time!

    Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour.: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.

    How much does Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour. cost?

    +

    Prices start at $230 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour. take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.

    Is Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour. worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 56 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour.?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour. suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour.?

    +

    Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Nairobi National Park, Elephant Orphanage & Giraffe Center tour. start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Nairobi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Nairobi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Nairobi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
