Cycle among zebras and gazelles at Hell’s Gate, hike its gorges, visit Lake Naivasha, and return to Nairobi on a private day tour.

“I visited Nairobi for a short business trip, and this one-day tour on the day off became a highlight. My guide, Peter, was a very kind person. Also, he is very professional, having good knowledge of animals, plants, geology and even insects. I was first impressed with the magnificent scenery of volcanic terrein. Although it is said that the number of animals is few compared to other national parks in Kenya, I was able to spot many animals, including zebras, giraffes, gazelles, impalas, etc.. In particular, one can enter such a park by bicycle, which must make you feel good. The road by bicycle is not long, but it was…”

7.Private Safari Day-Tour in Amboseli National Park

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 7 reviews · 11 hours · from $214

Review of a private Amboseli day safari from Nairobi, with elephants, Kilimanjaro views, lunch, costs, transport, and practical booking advice.

“Julius was a very nice guide, he had a lot to share about Kenya, locals, culture, the park, animals and more - got to learn so much. And I went to a group safari before I went to this private one, and must say it's absolutely worth doing a private safari, so you actually get to see the animals you want to see. In this park it might be rare to see lions, but you can see so many elephants, zebras, giraffes and other animals even up close. The people in the local tribe were lovely. Food for the lunch could be improved, but generally had such an amazing day.”
