Nairobi National Park

Your adventure begins with an early pick-up from your Nairobi hotel at 6:00 AM, where you will be driven to Nairobi National Park for a thrilling morning game drive. Situated just outside the bustling city, Nairobi National Park is the only park in the world located so close to an urban area.

This unique park offers an incredible wildlife experience, with the Nairobi skyline serving as an unusual backdrop to the stunning array of animals within. During your game drive, you’ll have the opportunity to observe a diverse range of wildlife including lions, leopards, buffalo, rhinos and zebras making this a photographer’s paradise. The morning coolness makes it the perfect time for animal sightings as the wildlife is highly active.

Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage

At around 10:00 AM, you will head to the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. Here, you’ll witness an extraordinary conservation effort, where orphaned baby elephants are fed and cared for by dedicated staff. This is an opportunity to learn about the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s pioneering elephant orphan rescue and rehabilitation program, the most successful of its kind in the world. If you wish, you may also participate in the adoption program, helping to support these incredible creatures as they are rehabilitated and eventually reintroduced into the wild.

The Giraffe Centre

Next, you will visit the Giraffe Centre, home to the endangered Rothschild giraffe. The Giraffe Centre is dedicated to the preservation of this species and you’ll have the chance to learn about the history of giraffe conservation in Kenya. You can even hand-feed these graceful creatures and if you’re lucky, you might get a kiss from one. The Giraffe Centre is a peaceful sanctuary, where the giraffes roam freely and the experience of interacting with these magnificent animals is both educational and memorable.
