What you can expect

  • Enjoy a memorable wildlife experience in Nairobi with visits to two of the city’s most popular conservation attractions.

    Begin your tour with pickup from your hotel or residence in Nairobi and drive to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, a world-renowned sanctuary dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating orphaned elephants. During the public visiting hour, watch the baby elephants as they play in the mud, drink milk from their keepers, and learn about their individual rescue stories and the organization’s conservation work.

    After spending time with the elephants, continue to the Giraffe Centre, a conservation centre that protects the endangered Rothschild giraffe. Here you will have the opportunity to feed giraffes from a raised observation platform and even get close enough for incredible photos.

    Your guide will share interesting facts about wildlife conservation efforts in Kenya and the importance of protecting these iconic species.

    At the end of the tour, relax on the drive back to your hotel or preferred drop-off location in Nairobi.
