Nairobi Tours and Trips

My Kenya trip with Contiki was truly unforgettable. From the moment I arrived, I was immersed in the stunning landscapes and vibrant culture. We started our adventure exploring Nairobi, getting a taste of the city's bustling energy. Then, we headed out on a safari in Maasai Mara, where I saw incredible wildlife—lions, elephants, giraffes, and more—up close and personal. The experience of sunrise over the savannah was unforgettable. We also visited local villages, learning about Maasai traditions and connecting with the community. The trip was a perfect mix of adventure, cultural immersion, and relaxation. The group was fantastic, and our guides made everything seamless and fun. Overall, it was an inspiring journey that left me with lifelong memories and a deeper appreciation for Kenya’s natural beauty and rich culture.

The opportunity to go on safari and see the animals in there natural habitat was exciting. The inclusion of visits to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, the Rothschild Giraffe Center, the Kazuri Beads factory and the Shanga jewelry shop were also great. And finally, the chance to interact with some of the local tribes was very rewarding and meaningful. The opportunity to learn a bit about the area and culture really made the trip!

I enjoyed this trip so much, we saw so many animals in the beautiful National parks and the lodges were comfortable and relaxing at the end of the day. Each day was very full and there is a lot of moving from place to place, but that meant we experienced different environments and were able to see a great variety of birds and animals. It was also interesting when we passed through towns bustling with people, on Sundays children in their best clothes going to church, lots of little stalls with fruit and veg, children going to school and Masai herding their cows, sheep and goat by the side of the busy roads.

This was our first tour with Collette and we couldn't have been more pleased with the entire experience. From our first contact with the travel agent to the final excort to the airport for return flight, everything was perfect.

The amount of animals we were able to see was truly amazing. We were surprised when we were told that we would be viewing the great migration. It was awesome!!! Most of the accommodations were really nice and the people were kind. A few of the days were pretty hot but our driver and tour guide made sure we were aware of the heat. It was the most incredible trip we’ve ever taken.

Great itinerary for both countries. The guide/drivers are only one and were very knowledgeable in both countries. Both were open for questions and they did everything they could to make sure we were seeing as many animals as possible during the safaris. We were able to see the big Five in both countries and much more.
