Hemingway’s hotel Nairobi

Hemmingway’s Nairobi Hotel, located in the peaceful suburb of Karen, is just a 40-minute drive from Nairobi’s international airport.

Business travelers will also appreciate its convenient transport links to Jomo Kenyatta and Wilson Airports, as well as its proximity to the CBD.

  Excellent introduction to Kenyan safaris
Enjoyed an exceptional customized tour of Amboseli NP with Twinkle Star tours. The owner, James, is a master of customer service. He responded promptly to my questions, checked in on me during my trip, and even personally delivered some Kenyan coffee to me at my hotel since I didn't have time to get it myself. Amboseli NP was excellent! I had some incredible wildlife sightings including elephant/lion interactions, my first cheetah, and incredible bird life. I also spent a couple of hours visiting a village of the amboseli masai, which was really interesting. My driver Daniel spoke english very well and was able to position the vehicle in just the right way to help me get some great shots of the wildlife. Great tour overall. Very pleased with my experience.

  nice experience
March is the good season for the visit, 3 days would have been more pleasant. the lodge was good (wood fire, super clean room, opposite a water point with elephants, hypopos, buffaloes etc. evening and morning => guaranteed amazement). Mosquito repellent cream in the evening. My driver was Daniel (effective) I recommend

  Professional and friendly service
My experience with the service and Omollo, the guide was very delightful. I recommend this service if you had very little time and wanted to make use of it to learn Kenya's history and culture.

  完美难忘的10天Safari之旅
很开心在多家对比后选择了Twinkle star，詹姆斯为我们安排了非常棒的10天safari之旅，也按照我们的要求定好了酒店。表扬一下我们的司机Robbert，他是一位非常好的司机，专业向导，在保证我们安全的前提下，不去打扰动物，尊重爱护着每一个动物，我觉得这是现在很多旅行社向导所没有的优点，我要为Robbert点赞。感觉时间过的非常快，意犹未尽，现在非常期待下次非洲之行！

  Amazing week long luxury safari
We had the most amazing custom experience with James and Twinkle Stars. We were taken care of from start to finish by experienced and friendly guides. We opted to combine Kenya and Tanzania but in hindsight would pick one or the other so as not to have to do so much travel. The Masai Mara is spectacular in January and we could have easily spent a week there.

  Very pleased
Toured with Twinkle Star during October 2023. 6 days, three hotels, one driver/guide. Each hotel was very different as were the sites. Accommodation ranged from very good to the nicest hotel ever. George knows the parks and the animals. He knows where they are and where they are going. I would use Twinkle Star/James again and would ask for George as my guide.
