This is an amazing tour!! From the lunch, the guide brought us to a really tasty roadside restaurant for lunch that is clean and super tasty food. And the lodge was superb! It was close to the National Park! We saw all the Big 5 and the driver was amazing and focused on having the guests see all of the animals as his goal! This is a once of a lifetime experience I cannot recommend highly enough!

This is not really a tour I have made with them, but one I cancelled. We have been talking for 3 weeks about my stop in Nairobi while traveling to Uganda, and they agreed for a city tour and Nairobi National Park for 76 USD, as it appeared here. First they tried to make me pay in advance, but I told them my dates were different and I would send the details. Luckily I didn't pay beforehand. I sent them the details of my flight, but there was no one when I went out of the terminal. I had an email asking more details of my flight, so that they knew the terminal. A taxi driver agreed to call them, and when I gave them the details, they tell me that, since I am traveling alone, the fare won't be 76 USD but 100 USD. It is not a great difference, but you can't be discussing the tour for 3 weeks, and once landed change the price of it. I simply refused, and the taxi driver agreed to make the same tour for that same fare.

I had grand plans on arrival in Kenya to do a couple of the One Horizon tours, however had issues with their booking system only booking for the day after tomorrow. This led to phone calls with owner-operator Colin, who was able to accomodate me with both tours I wanted in a half-day personalised tour. I was met by Carol at my hotel and travelled to meet mothers with HIV thriving thanks to a two-year rehabilitation program that teaches them trade and entrepreneurial skills so they can set up their own business to support their families. There I also met Solomon (and Colin, briefly) and together we travelled on to meet two grandmothers thriving off pig-farming and able to support their families for the first time in their lives. I honestly could write tons about these experiences, but I will keep it to this: being a development graduate, I know what good charity and bad charity looks like. Colin gets in there and asks what is needed in the community and then makes it happen. The programs come from the community and the community thrives because of it. This is charity at its best. All of the women but particularly the warm hospitality shown by the grandmothers and Carol and Solomon over a lunch we made together, hearing stories about Kenyan life, the struggles, was probably the single best tourism experience I ever had. Carol and Solomon answered every question I had and then some, and I felt so inspired by their hard work and dedication. Travelling for another two months across Africa this tour remained my number one experience and takeaway of what Africa is. I cannot recommend One Horizon highly enough.
