Nairobi is more than a stopover city. Discover wildlife, culture, cuisine, and adventure in Kenya's vibrant capital.

Often overlooked as just a safari gateway, Nairobi is one of Africa's most dynamic cities with plenty to offer.

Visit the Giraffe Centre

Get eye-to-eye with endangered Rothschild giraffes and even feed them from a platform.

David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage

Adopt an elephant and watch baby elephants being rehabilitated for return to the wild. Open to the public for one hour daily.

Nairobi National Park

The only national park in a capital city. See lions, rhinos, and giraffes with the Nairobi skyline as a backdrop.

Karen Blixen Museum

Visit the home of the author of Out of Africa, beautifully preserved on the outskirts of the city.

City Markets & Food

Explore the Maasai Market for crafts, and try nyama choma (roasted meat) at a local joint.
