Kenya Safari Tour Packages for Holidays and Adventure
Make time for a private game drive close to Nairobi, with pickup and timing planned around your stay.
Exclusive road vehicle and guide · Written itinerary
A place with its own character
Nairobi National Park brings open grassland and wildlife country close to the capital. It can be a focused safari experience in its own right or the first chapter of a longer Kenya trip.
Choose a focused game drive when time is limited. Add separate wildlife-centre visits only when their reservations and transfer times fit your day.
Choose your itinerary: The Nairobi National Park tour is a focused six-hour programme. The park, elephant nursery and Giraffe Centre combination is a ten-hour day programme with multiple scheduled visits. These are different time commitments. Private road transport and guiding do not mean exclusive access to public attractions, and a nursery visit needs its confirmed advance reservation.

The safari collection includes dedicated destination stays and multi-park Kenya journeys. Each trip page sets out the daily route, overnight stops and included experiences.

Private road safaris use an exclusive vehicle and guide. The itinerary and quotation specify accommodation, park entries, transfers and selected activities.
Add a night, change the route or tell us what matters most. Use these itineraries as a starting point for a private trip.
Look a little closer
Each destination has its own landscapes, wildlife habitats and activities. Private guiding follows the booked itinerary and the permitted routes.
The park is an important rhino sanctuary. Explore grassland and bushland patiently; sightings and skyline views depend on conditions.
A game drive changes the pace of a Nairobi stay. Leave time for hotel transfers and city traffic as well as wildlife searching.
The Giraffe Centre and Sheldrick Wildlife Trust are separate visits. Their bookings, entry conditions and transfers must be confirmed individually.
Nairobi National Park does not have a resident wild elephant population. An elephant-orphanage visit is a separate, reservation-dependent activity.
Choose a base that makes sense
Camp and lodge location determines access to wildlife areas and the length of transfers. The accommodation booking identifies the property, room category and meal plan.
Nairobi day tours use the existing hotel as the pickup and return base, with transfer coverage specified in the booking.
Park-edge accommodation provides a Nairobi base close to the wildlife landscape. The property’s access route and the itinerary determine transfers and park entries.
An overnight in Nairobi can create breathing room before travelling to the Mara, Amboseli or the northern circuit.
The safari total covers the items listed in the quotation: accommodation, meals, private transport, guiding, entries, activities and transfers. Rates vary by season, party size and room arrangement.
A little planning goes a long way
Choose a focused game drive when time is limited. Add separate wildlife-centre visits only when their reservations and transfer times fit your day.
Morning game drives use the cooler part of the day. Recent rainfall, visibility and Nairobi traffic shape the programme and transfer times.
Entry fees follow the park or conservancy authority, visitor category, age, travel dates and activities. The safari quotation itemises the entries included in the itinerary.
Park road safaris use an exclusive vehicle and guide. Tour minivans and Land Cruiser 4x4s provide the transport options, with the vehicle matched to the itinerary and party.
Before you decide
Share your priorities and we can help you choose a realistic route.
Wild elephants are not a resident feature of Nairobi National Park. A Sheldrick visit is separate and requires its own confirmed arrangements.

Kelvin and Rustic Nature Tours were the absolute best choice for the two day trips we did during our time in Nairobi. We could not have asked for a better experience. The tripsKelvin and Rustic Nature Tours were the absolute best choice for the two day trips we did during our time in Nairobi. We could not have asked for a better experience. The trips were completely seamless. We had terrific communication beforehand in preparation for the experiences, and we felt that all aspects were accounted for. Kelvin was absolutely exceptional as a guide. He was very knowledgeable about the animals, the local history, and the elements of the safari experience. His ability to navigate us to exactly the spots where we could see the most, be the closest, and truly experience all that Kenya has to offer.For the first-day experience, we traveled to Amboseli. People in our group really wanted to see elephants. And elephants we saw! Kelvin helped position the Land Cruiser so that we had multiple herds of elephants (including babies) walk in front of the vehicle, less than 10 feet away!! It was a memorable sight. We also saw lions, zebras, wildebeests, birds (of all kinds), giraffes, and so much more. Kelvin has a college degree in wildlife management, and he is both extraordinarily knowledgeable and professional in the trip. He answered our questions, provided information, and helped us experience the wildlife in the safest manner possible. I would definitely recommend taking the Land Cruiser over the Safari van. The roads in the park are bumpy, and the Land Cruiser ensured a safe, comfortable ride while also getting us into the perfect spot to see the animals. After 4 hours or so in the park, we headed to a beautiful lodge to eat. The food and experience at the lodge were wonderful. After that, we did another drive before leaving to head back to Nairobi. A long but unbelievable day!For the second experience, we headed to Nairobi National Park, then the Sheldrick Elephant Trust, Kobe Beads, lunch, and the Giraffe Center. Again, Kelvin was a masterful guide. In the park, he got us close to hippos, rhinos, zebras, giraffes, ostriches, and even a crocodile- among many other animals. He found the perfect spots and maneuvered the vehicle just right (and sometimes even off the beaten path) to make sure we saw the best views of the animals (again, we recommend the Land Cruiser for the best experience!). After talking with others who took different trips to Nairobi National Park, we realized how special our visit was. Many of them didn’t have Kelvin guiding them and, as a result, missed seeing all that we saw. We can’t emphasize enough how amazing Kelvin is. From there, Kelvin got us to the Elephant Sanctuary. He had the tickets already set, so all we needed to do was walk in, and then he got us to the perfect spot where we could be feet away from baby elephants, a baby rhino, and a baby zebra. Truly spectacular! After that, we visited a local bead factory that is a microenterprise supporting local women. We had a tour, learned about the beading process, and then had the opportunity to visit their shop (no hassling or pressure to buy- but we did get some beautiful items!). Then to a hidden garden for lunch at a local restaurant, and then finally to the giraffes. By the time we got to the giraffes, it was very busy, but again, Kelvin worked his magic to get us through the line quickly (we felt like VIPs!) and to the perfect spot to feed them. He clearly knows the staff, as he was able to get us pictures and even additional food to feed the animals. After a long day, he masterfully navigated traffic (which is no joke) to return us to the hotel.All in all, our time in Kenya would not have been the same without Kelvin and Rustic Nature Tours. We can’t recommend their tours any higher. You will not be disappointed!!!…

Then we headed to the elephant orphanage where Faith knew the whole system and was able to get us up close spots in the “splash zone.” Next up was the giraffe center where we got up close to hand feed giraffes. Faith knew all of the giraffes by name and personality and even took photos on our camera for us. Afterwards we stopped for traditional Kenyan lunch (at your own expense) and we elected to do the Karen Blixen museum for the entrance fee as well. Since it was just me and my husband, Faith even drove us to the local mall before taking us back to the hotel. Overall it was a day well spent with memories to last a lifetime!…
