Full Day Nairobi City Tour

Get ready to experience two of the most unique animal sanctuaries in the world. This full-day tour will bring you face to face with endangered Rothschild’s giraffes and orphaned baby elephants! What an incredible way to experience Nairobi’s unique animal parks. Over the 5 – 6 hours of this morning tour we’ll visit the Giraffe Centre, home to a tower of giraffes and then onto the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. This is a wonderful adventure for visitors of all ages.

Climb the feeding tower here and offer a giraffe a food pellet. Not only may he (or she) accept your offering, you may be rewarded with a kiss! Such occurrences are not uncommon at the Giraffe Centre, a principal sanctuary for the endangered Rothschild’s giraffe. Started in 1979, the Centre has been responsible for saving and breeding this beautiful subspecies of giraffe. Almost extinct, they are now thriving throughout Africa thanks to the heroic efforts of founders Jock and Betty Leslie-Melville.

You will arrive at this world-famous animal refuge in time for the daily feeding at 11:00 am. Imagine the sight of dozens of baby elephants running to their handlers and latching on to giant baby bottles! It’s a scene of unforgettable cuteness. After the babies have had their fill of formula, it’s bath time. Just feet from you, the tiny elephants roll in the mud, playing and spraying each other.
