  1. Duoxy

    Best Safari I ever had in my life time

  2. Kate Price

    We had a lovely tour round Nairobi National Park and into the sheldrake Elephant Orphanage. Stanley was great and told us all about the animals as we saw them in the national park. We felt really looked after with the pick up and drop off and even taking us to a lunch place too. We had already been to the giraffe center independently, so we skipped this step. Nairobi National Park is a must see, we loved the elephants and giraffes too, and we had a great experience with Stanley.
