Our unforgettable Nairobi adventure begins with an early morning pick-up from your preferred location, heading straight to the world-renowned Nairobi National Park. Just a short drive from the city center, the park offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a full wildlife experience against the backdrop of Nairobi’s skyline. Once inside, you’ll embark on an early morning game drive—the best time to spot animals as they are most active during the cooler hours. Nairobi National Park is home to over 100 species of mammals including lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, zebras, gazelles, elands, wildebeests, jackals, civet cats, and both white and black rhinos. It’s also a birdwatcher’s paradise, with hundreds of bird species gracing the skies and savannah.
During the drive, your guide will help you track the more elusive animals like lions, while rhinos and hippos can often be seen near rivers or waterholes. Keep your camera ready—you’re likely to capture remarkable sightings in this compact yet wildlife-rich park. After soaking in the beautiful landscapes and wildlife, you’ll exit the park and head to the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage where you’ll enjoy a heartwarming hour observing baby elephants being fed, playing, and cared for by their handlers.
At around 12:30 PM, you’ll break for lunch at a local restaurant (meal cost not included), with time to relax and reflect on the morning’s adventures. After lunch, the journey continues to the Giraffe Centre, where you’ll have the delightful opportunity to interact with and hand-feed endangered Rothschild giraffes from an elevated platform. This unique up-close experience offers both fun and education on giraffe conservation. As the day draws to a close, we’ll drop you back at your location, leaving you with cherished memories and a deeper understanding of Kenya’s wildlife. At GreatWing Safaris, we aim to turn every day trip into a lifelong memory filled with adventure, knowledge, and joy..
