Exceptional tour
Joined this tour last minute and found Joel to be informative, enthusiastic and was happy to answer all our questions. He asked our interests and covered history, politics, religions, tribes, architecture, animals etc. Having done a number of city tours over the years, i was particularly impressed with his approach, content and genuine nature. Was happy to answer questions about his own life in Nairobi and I felt I learnt a great deal about the city and Kenya as a country. Thanks Joel, highly recommend.

Amazing tour with Joel – 10/10!
We absolutely loved our tour with Joel! He was an incredible guide, super friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about his country. He took us around Nairobi's most iconic landmarks while explaining so much more than just the sights. We learned about Kenya's fascinating history, from colonial times and independence to the present day, as well as the different tribes, traditions and customs that make the country so unique. What we appreciated most was how Joel helped us understand everyday life in Kenya and the realities of the country today. It felt like a genuine conversation with a local rather than just a typical sightseeing tour. Joel was fantastic from beginning to end, always smiling, happy to answer our questions and making the whole experience really enjoyable. We couldn't recommend him more! If you want to truly understand Nairobi and Kenya beyond the usual tourist attractions, Joel is your guy. 10/10!

How does a free tour work?
Booking costs nothing. At the end, each person gives the guide what they think is fair for the experience: it's a voluntary tip.
