Full Day Mini Safari to Nairobi national Park
Amazing one day tour in Nairobi by African beast tours and safaris during the covid-19 period
They provided a comfortable jeep for my family with a funny experienced and patient driver(Sammy).
We were able to spot lions getting ready for the morning the elusive leopard rhinos zebras and many more animals.
.We also stopped and pulled a stuck car with our jeep which really comes in handy during wet times.
Hope another sends us back to this company for memorable moments

Very reliable tour operator. Very good communication.
We had a great 2 day safari to Tsavo west.
The driver, Benjamin, showed us a large variety of animals. He knows a lot about animals and gave us interesting information about their nature and characteristics.
We enjoyed the drives with him greatly.
Thank you Benjamin.

Very knowledgeable and fun
Overall a great experience, couldn't recommend more!
The national park / elephant orphanage and giraffe breeding centre were all really amazing and must see experiences in Nairobi. My guide was really informative and went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time.
The company was also very flexible with lunch options and I was able to request a stop nearby with no fuss.
Great day, thank you to African Beast Tours and Safaris!

Perfect safari and all was super well organised. The guide Festus Kazungu was very good.
Well organised, in time and AA lodge are very good for food and room. Very close to amboseli park. You can trust African beast and especially Fastus Kazungu. Thank you

Great service for price
Great tour in NNP with our guide Festus! We saw so much wildlife (giraffe, gazelle, zebra etc). We were in a pop up tour van. Booked a private tour for $135/person and they were very flexible with the times. Amazing tour!

Fun, varied introduction to Nairobi's top sites
We chose this tour as an introductory safari before we travelled to other parts of East Africa, and we weren't disappointed.
Our guide, Harrison, was warm, friendly and knowledgeable. His customer service was excellent. Communications from the company's head office were clear and excellent.
The tour includes three really different wildlife experiences, and we enjoyed all of them.

Well organized and easy to book
The tour was very easy to book with organizer Mercy and we were very well to inform beforehand via email and whattsapp. Starting time of the safari was smoothly changed to our needs and a jeep picked us from our hotel when informed.
We had a very good tour in the wildlife park and we saw a lots of different animals on our touring at the wildlife park. Our guide Nathan was very professional and he guided us very well.
Also visits at the elephant orphanage and giraffe park were very interesting and nice final for our tour. We think everything went very good and our group was very satisfied with this tour.

A very nice experience
Nathan was amazing, he was so knowledgeable and took a lot of time for us.
He was also well connected, because of him we got to see more than 10 lions, a cheetah with 5 cubs, many elephants with beautiful close up shots, tons of zebras, wilderbeasts, a lot of birds and hippos.
He knew all the names of the animals and could answer all our questions very precise. And I as a scientist ask a lot of very specific questions 😅
And even if we didn't ask, he always had a story to tell regarding what we just saw.
All in all, he was brilliant as our guide and I would always recommend him to others.

I cannot see how to better spend two days in Kenya
I cannot see how to better spend two days in Kenya than booking a trip to Amboseli via African Beast Tours and Safaris.
For those interested, some detailed thoughts below expanding on my experience. For reference, me and my three friends booked a group tour in late October 2024, starting from Nairobi. We ended up being four people in total, as a friendly Portuguese guy also joined us. A disclaimer is that this is my first safari experience, so I have no other point of reference.
Communication and planning:
Ahead of our trip, the communication with African Beast Tours and Safaris was clear, kind and professional, with very fast response times. This was important to us as we started to look for options only a few days before we wanted to go. ABT&S were the first to respond.
They also had the lowest cost that I could find. However I can hardly see what a more expensive option would provide that ABT&S did not.
We opted for budget over luxury, so I was surprised when we arrived on the AA Amboseli lodges and saw the standards. With sophisticated camping tents/cottages (electricity and bathrooms w/showers included), a restaurant, a bar, a pool, and cheeky Vervet monkeys running around, I nearly thought there had been a mistake.
The safari:
Amboseli National Park was simply stunning. Over the span of two sessions, we had nearly constant close encounters with wild, beautiful animals. It felt like teleporting into the Lion King opening scene. The mountain of Kilimanjaro looming on the horizon was the cherry on top.
Our guide Edwin elevated our experience with his knowledge and passion of the animals and their conservation. We decided to rely on him to call the shots on where to go, and it payed off. He drove us around in the park, relying on over-the-radio rumors and experience to take us to the spots with most activity, uncovering one magnificent sight after the other.
A non-extensive list of the animals we met on our way:
Majestic grazers including 100+ elephants, countless zebras, warthogs, Thomson gazelles, giraffes, hippos, Wildebeests, Dik-Dik and (mating) water buffalos. Often seen wandering together.
Spectacular birdlife including 100+ flamingos, eagles, ostriches, secretary birds and pelicans.
And then we were also lucky enough to catch the three major predators in the lion, cheetah and hyena.
It is a special feeling to observe wild animals at close hand.
PS: A tip for photographing the animals with a smartphone is to take some pictures through binoculars. If aimed properly, it will make for some cool shots. We had one pair of binoculars to share provided by our guide, but you might also want to bring some of your own.
