What people are saying about Lake Naivasha

Simon answered all my inquisitive questions about wildlife & knew every species of animal we saw. He knew their mating habits, some of their origins and more! He waited for me despite my later flight landing, then Picked me up straight from the airport and dropped me right back off during my long layover. He waited at a café for me to get breakfast which was super accommodating—- and had Wi-Fi as well as electricity for charging your phone within the car all day. He had great driving skills and navigated my day well. Still took me on a solo tour which allowed me to nap in the back seat and pivot to all looking points of the safari car. Took the best pics of me and we had some good stories shared. Thanks so much for the short experience in Kenya!

The elephant orphanage and giraffe centre trip was an incredible experience and not to be missed.

Our guide was friendly and informative, with great communication, and even took us to additional locations like the bead factory. Would highly recommend doing this while in Nairobi

Really great trip! I love that you have the ranger to yourself on the whole trip if you book solo - total win for me! Simon was a fantastic guide -10/10. Very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. The tour guide for the boat ride was fantastic too. I will be using this tour company again.
