A great park when you have very young kids.
Good selection of wildlife, easy enough to get the iconic shot (picture) of Giraffe and the Nairobi skyline in the background. Rhino both Black and White were easy to see when we were there, they even had a calf. A great variety of water birds, we also saw a pair of fantastic Crested Crane. Marabou stork were wandering around as if they owned the place. Loads of cheeky Baboons and other monkeys trying to steal chocolate bars and ice creams just made it a very good day out . Make sure you get good guide/driver with a 4x4. The one thing that you need to know is that cash for the entrance fee is not taken( that's in all the parks) either have a credit card or M-Pesa we found that it took a while to activate, so we ended up using a credit card.

For being so close to the city it is amazing. If you can’t get out in a safari this is the next best thing.

I saw more animals here than on the other safaris, including lions, rhinos, a hippo, crocodiles, impalas, gazelles, giraffes, warthogs, buffalo, storks, cranes... While not as pretty as other locations, the backdrop of Nairobi city is interesting, and it is easy to get to this park, and still leave time in a day for visiting some other location in Nairobi.

Amazing wildlife experience right on the edge of the big city

that comprised perhaps the highlight of the park. There we saw birds galore, including Malechite kingfisher, Sacred ibis, Blacksmith lapwing, Black-winged stilt, and African fish eagle, as well as a large monitor lizard and of course, hippos. The park is relatively small, and our driver gave us what seemed like a complete tour within a couple of hours.The entrance to the park is a little intimidating, as there are armed guards and, as is typical of Nairobi generally, a high degree of security. Since we were with a professional guide, however, we were able to just hang back and let him take care of the payment, paperwork, and direction. Overall, the Nairobi National Park proved an amazing place to spend an afternoon, and I recommend it to anyone visiting Nairobi or beginning a safari in that city.

It was Amazing. I have seen Lion from so near which was an adventure for me.
Everything was good.
Our Guide was having fully knowledge about the park which made our trip easy.

Amazing outings with the team over a weekend
We had only one and a half day in Nairobi and we wanted to make the most of it.
James and Gabriel organised for us the visit of Nairobi National Park, lake Naivasha and Hell's gate with bicycles. The perfect mix of adventure and game seeing over a weekend.
Organisation was just perfect and the programme adapted to our requests. We had a really good time with my friends but also with the organising team. The driver and the guides were super professional, creating the perfect atmosphere for fun, exchange and learning about Kenyan wildlife.
Highly recommended !!

A must to visit when in Nairobi - wildlife at the doorstep of a metropole
We visited the part on a Sunday morning, where traffic through town is light. It is a fantastic experience to be on the Savanna in wild Africa in just 30 minutes from your hotel downtown. There was lots of wildlife, and the part was not too crowded (off season). Paying with credit card at gate was easy and fast. The drivers were polite and competent. And the booking from the agency smooth.
This is a must do when in Nairobi.
