1.The Safari Cats Show Tickets & Buffet Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 29 reviews · 4 hours · from $99Our pick

Enjoy a Nyama Choma buffet, then watch the Safari Cats perform Kenyan dance and acrobatics during a one-hour evening show. Hotel pickup and return are included, with driver Edwin praised for his punctual service and cultural stories. Drinks cost extra, and warm clothing is wise.

“The food was great however, there was NO STAGE or backdrop. we were definitely not seated in the areas of the photos shown. we were placed in a restaurant with self serve cheap deserts and fruit with flies everywhere. the dancers performed well by using the open space in front of the only restrooms available which had only a few stalls where they also were changing. since the performance was blocking the restrooms you were forced to wait until it was done. the dancers danced well but seemed informal as this felt like we were watching more of a rehearsal vs the show advertised. afterwards they lined up for photos…”
