Nairobi City Tour – Half day

Embarking on a journey of discovery, your day commences at 8:00 am with a pickup from your Nairobi hotel. Our first destination is the renowned Giraffe Manor, a place that promises not just proximity to these majestic creatures, but also a chance to enrich your understanding of their world.

This tour offers an intimate encounter, allowing you to observe the giraffes up close and personally interact with them. You’ll even have the option to feed them, creating a truly unique and memorable experience.

The Giraffe Center is a testament to the vision of the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Kenya (A.F.E.W.), a noble endeavor established in 1979. This non-governmental, non-profit organization was born out of a determination to rescue the endangered Rothschild Giraffe, whose natural habitat had been encroached upon by agriculture and human settlement. With just 130 remaining in the wild, action was imperative. These giraffes were carefully relocated to places like Lake Nakuru National Park, Mwea Game Reserve, Ruma National Park, and Nasalot Game Reserve. Through these efforts, the Rothschild Giraffe population in Kenya has flourished, surpassing 500 individuals.

Following this enriching experience, our journey leads us to the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, nestled within the serene embrace of Nairobi National Park. Here, orphaned baby elephants and other vulnerable animals find refuge under the watchful care of devoted conservationists. Open to the public for a single hour each day, the orphanage is a tribute to Daphne Sheldrick’s dedication. Daphne Sheldrick, the wife of the renowned Naturalist David William Sheldrick, founder Warden of Tsavo East National Park, continues to nurture his legacy by ensuring the well-being of these remarkable creatures.
