Fun Filled Informative Tour

Published on Jan, 2024

My family and I enjoyed the walking tour of Nairobi. Tim, our guide is knowledgeable enough and answered all our questions. The view from the top of the convention centre was epic and the weather was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the whole experience and I recommend it to anyone interested.

Informative Walking Tour

Published on Jan, 2024

My guide was prompt in time as I met him at the pick up point. He gave a well detailed history of the country before we even began officially. We shared stories, I even forgot it was a walking tour. Quite a unique experience I haven't experienced before. I recommend this tour to everyone who's in Nairobi city.
