If you have one night in Nairobi, do a night time safari.

Robert was very flexible and very communicative from the start of my booking. I and my colleagues felt extremely safe with doing a night time safari. Robert and his colleague were knowledgeable about the wildlife. I learned that a whole bunch of giraffes 🦒 standing around is called a tower. This was such a unique experience that was worth every penny. We saw Rhinos, Buffalo, Zebra, and of course a Lion. There was so much to see. I highly recommend this Safari to everyone and to those who especially want exclusive access to Nairobi National Park at night. If you only have an evening in Nairobi go with Robert.

Response from the operator: Thank you Jordan for your review and Glad that the night time game drive was great and met your expectations and exceeded and your other colleagues also were satisfied

Night safari

Was very interesting to see things at night and a good length of time in the national park. It was an excellent solution to a long layover and a night flight

Response from the operator: Glad that it was a very interesting outing at night viewing the nocturnal wildlife as you layed over and did something interesting to pass time for your night flight

We visited Nairobi National Park with a group friends.

I had a great experience. Robert our guide was on time and made sure to keep the group laughing and informed on animal bios etc. Would recommend for more people to go with Kenyana on tours.

Response from the operator: Dear Esther,glad that you enjoyed this unique experience with your group as you enjoyed the tour

+

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?
