Not all of Kenya’s wildlife is found in the great legendary parks – there’s plenty to see in town or just minutes away with our stunning Kenya day trips.
Nairobi National Park is a truly wild animal reserve just a hop from your hotel, where you can discover roaming lion, buffalo, cheetah, and more… all in sight of the city’s downtown skyscrapers.
Collective African Tours & Safaris (C.A.T.S) offers daily full and half-day excursions to the city’s magical animal enclaves – places that exist nowhere else. They’re all easy and so much fun!
Baby Elephants By the Dozens
We’ll take you to see a delightful nursery of baby elephants feeding, playing, and just being adorable at the David Sheldrick Trust Elephant Orphanage, a popular choice for being one of the best things to do in Nairobi.
Picture the hungry babies running up to their handlers for their morning meal, drinking from giant baby bottles!
They lap up their breakfast and run off to play, like any toddler. You can even “adopt” a baby during your visit.
Ever Fed a Giraffe?
You can at The Giraffe Centre. Climb up the observation platform where you’ll be eye-to-eye with a curious and colorful Rothschild’s giraffe.
Reach out with some food pellets and a long, green tongue quickly laps up the goodies.
You may even get a giraffe kiss as thanks.
Into Africa – The World of Karen Blixen
You may know her as Isak Dinesen, the author of the world-famous memoir, “Out of Africa”.
Her real name was Karen Blixen and she had a farm in Africa – a coffee plantation and manor house. We’ll take you there to see the colorful mementos of her amazing life.
Kazuri Beads
Step into this busy workplace to be immersed in a world of dazzling beads and pottery.
This artisan refuge and gift shop was born in the local community by women seeking self-empowerment through their imaginations and a desire to improve their and their children’s lives.
