What to expect

  1. Nairobi National Park
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    On a safari at Nairobi National Park, visitors experience a unique safari adventure in the heart of Kenya's capital. They explore the vast savannah, spotting iconic wildlife such as lions, giraffes, rhinos, and zebras against the backdrop of Nairobi’s skyline.
  2. Sheldrick Wildlife Trust
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Nestled on the edge of Nairobi National Park lies a sanctuary for orphaned baby elephants, victims of the ivory poaching trade. The Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage rescues and rehabilitates elephants from all over Kenya.
    Every day at 11 am, baby elephants hurtle out of the acacia forest into a muddy watering hole area to meet their keepers for feeding time.

    Tummies full, the calves resort to rolling in the mud, spraying murky water in the air and playing amongst themselves. For one precious hour, you can watch them from the sidelines before they wander back into the woodlands. The keepers on-site will teach you all about the work of the orphanage, and the importance of their conservation efforts.
  3. Giraffe Centre
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    At the Giraffe Centre in Nairobi, visitors enjoy an unforgettable up‑close experience with endangered Rothschild giraffes.
