Jambo! Hello! Bonjour! Hola! Hallo! 你好! مرحبا! こんにちは! Perhaps you dream of watching elephants beneath Mount Kilimanjaro, searching for big cats across the Maasai Mara, discovering Nairobi's hidden cultural gems, immersing in the art, going back in history, checking out our night life, a beer by the beach, exploring the Indian Ocean coast, or travelling beyond the familiar routes into lesser-known corners of East Africa to immerse in the true cultural provisions of the Maasai people. Whatever brings you here, I will work with you to create an experience that reflects what you truly want from your travels. Kenya is more than a safari destination. It is a country of remarkable wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, vibrant cities, living traditions, extraordinary cuisine, and warm hospitality. And East Africa offers even more to discover. I'm here to open the gates for you to witness all this, and more. Welcome, and thank you for visiting my profile. I'm a Nairobi-based professional tour guide, conservation enthusiast, and founder of Wild World Expeditions. My passion is helping travellers discover the real Kenya and East Africa through thoughtfully curated, private experiences that go beyond the usual tourist trail. I have called Nairobi home for 34 years and have been guiding travellers professionally for more than 10 years, with experience across Kenya and the wider East African region. I know this part of the world not simply as a destination, but as a place shaped by extraordinary landscapes, diverse wildlife, rich cultures, complex histories, and the everyday lives of its people. My goal is to bring these dimensions together, turning every journey into a meaningful, comfortable, and memorable experience. No two travellers are alike, and your journey should reflect that. I specialise in bespoke private tours for couples, honeymooners, families, solo adventurers, birdwatchers, researchers, business travellers, and small or large groups. Whether you prefer a relaxed cultural excursion,a farm tour, local cooking experience, a beer by the local outlet while staring at a sinking sun, an immersive wildlife safari, an adventurous road trip, or a carefully planned luxury holiday, I tailor each itinerary to your interests, pace, budget, and expectations. From hand-selected five-star accommodation to well-coordinated budget tours, thoughtfully chosen activities, and flexible daily schedules, I pay attention to the details that make a private journey feel effortless. My approach combines comfort and personalisation with the freedom to explore at your own pace. My academic background in wildlife conservation, professional tour-guide training, and wider engagement in environmental research and conservation policy enrich the experiences I offer. I enjoy sharing knowledge, answering questions, and creating space for genuine discovery, whether we are exploring a national park, tracing a historical narrative, observing birds, meeting local artisans, or discovering East Africa's extraordinary natural heritage. I also believe responsible travel should respect the places and people that make a destination special. Wherever possible, I aim to connect visitors with meaningful local experiences while encouraging appreciation for wildlife, cultural diversity, and environmental conservation. I am honoured to have received the ToursByLocals Legendary Safari Award 2025, voted for by travellers from around the world. My profile also reflects a 4.9/5 rating across 24 reviews, alongside a professional journey that extends beyond tourism. You are welcome to choose from my listed tours or contact me to design a completely personalised itinerary from scratch. Tell me what excites you, how you like to travel, and what you hope to discover. Together, we can shape a journey that balances adventure, comfort, cultural understanding, and memorable encounters. I would be delighted to welcome you, share my knowledge, and show you this part of the world through a local's eyes. Karibu Kenya-welcome to Kenya. Let's make your journey extraordinary. K.

Experience the unique thrill of a Nairobi National Park safari, where Kenya’s remarkable wildlife unfolds against the striking backdrop of Nairobi’s city skyline. This guided game drive offers an opportunity to explore the park’s diverse landscapes in search of iconic wildlife, including lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, and rhinos, among other fascinating species. With convenient pick-up and drop-off from your hotel, the airport, or your preferred location within Nairobi, the experience is designed to fit seamlessly into your travel schedule. Choose from morning, mid-morning, or afternoon game drives, each offering a memorable introduction to Kenya’s natural heritage. For the best wildlife-viewing opportunities, I recommend the early morning or afternoon drive, when wildlife activity can be particularly rewarding. Whether you are visiting Nairobi for business, leisure, or a short stopover, this safari promises an exceptional wilderness experience just minutes from the city.
Kevin was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable about all the animals and vegetation.
Kevin picked us up at our hotel right on time and while we didn't have high expectations due to going later in the day (and Nairobi National Park is a smaller one), Kevin ensured we saw a ton of animals, driving to spots where they were seen and covering just about everywhere. We even saw the highly elusive black rhino and a leopard, and were fortunate enough to see a pride of lions take down an ostrich. Kevin must have telescopic vision, spotting tons of animals, as well as being incredibly knowledgeable on the animals and plants.
We had the best time touring Nairobi National Park with Kevin and Carlos. We only had 2 hours in the park due to our schedule but we still saw so much wildlife including lions, rhinos, giraffes, baboons, ostriches and so many other birds. Top notch and well worth every penny.
My wife and I had the pleasure of touring Kenya with Kevin, and it was an unforgettable experience! Kevin guided us through Lake Nakuru, where we saw incredible wildlife, and he also gave us a fantastic tour of Nairobi city and Kenya National Park. His knowledge of the local areas and animals is unmatched, and his passion for what he does truly shows. Kevin was friendly, professional, and always ensured we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. He made our trip special by sharing unique insights and taking us to the best spots. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or returning to Kenya, I highly recommend booking a tour with Kevin. You won’t be disappointed!
