Hotels near Wilson Airport - WIL, Nairobi

I had a great time in Nairobi. Love the people. They are so welcoming and accommodating. Loved the food . My only challenge was the language and the traffic jam at certain hours and crossing the roads in some areas. The driving is "fast and furious". Its easy to get around Nairobi with an Uber and a couple of touristic sites to visit like the Nairobi National Park, which is good for nature lovers. The masai market for souvenirs and handicrafts.

Nairobi is such a mixture of people and things to do. We visited Karen Blixin museum and the slums as well as the giraffe manor and elephant sanctuary. The National Park in the middle of the city is stunning. Traffic however is a nightmare and the roads often in a state of disrepair making moving around a challenge.

Nairobi is a virbrant modern city with a lot going on from down town to up market Westlands. Night life has something for all types. A versitile ciry Even the local buses was fun to go on with their reggea music sounds

Overall, there is not much to see in Nairobi. It's not a nice city at all from European perspective. However, it is interesting in some ways. Get a guide and visit one of the big slams, so you'll respect what you have home.

Vibrant happy place with a very interesting culture which takes a bit of getting used too. Cows sheep and goats just wonder every where it's a very different life style that everyone should experience

Nairobi is a huge, busy, crowded and chaotic city. It's an assault on the senses with all the action and business going on. Our family of six found the people incredibly friendly, with a lovely sense of fun. We were aged between 67 and 17 so we all had different highlights. I would recommend doing the cookery course where they bring you shopping in local markets and you go back to someones flat. We went with Rumma Tours. We took a Mutatu Bus which we enjoyed thoroughly, fun. Walking around the city was very interesting but remember not to smoke on the street or take any photos of official buildings. We didn't know this and almost got arrested twice! The National Safari Park was better than expected but all parks are very costly (I believe the prices have been doubled over the past few months). We did a trip to Hell's Gate and Lake Naivasha which was amazing, even just the drive there and back was an eye opener. We stayed in Lavington which was very convenient and were able to walk to The Mall and to local restaurants.
