Full description
After a brief introduction, proceed to Nairobi National Park for an early morning game drive. See more than 100 different species of animals including lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, rhinos, zebras, gazelles, elands, wildebeests, hyenas and so many more. Next, visit the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. Since its inception, the orphanage has hand-reared more than 150 baby elephants that were orphaned in the wild, often due to poaching. The orphanage helps to reintegrate these gorgeous creatures into the wilds of Tsavo National Park in the east of the country. Learn more about this fascinating venture and see the baby elephants being fed by their keepers. Proceed to the Giraffe Center. The center has been ostensibly set up as a breeding center for the endangered Rothschild giraffe, but now operates conservation/education programs for Kenyan school children. Meet the resident giraffes face-to-face before heading to an enclosed homestead, the Bomas, each one Bomas represents one of Kenya's major ethnic groups. Sit back and enjoy traditional songs and dances showcased by different ethnic groups.

It is worth doing the tour if you have some time in Nairobi and want to get a first impression of a safari. Except for the leopard, we saw all other four of the Big Five in Nairobi National Park, including lions after the hunt and 2 x mother rhino with child. In my opinion, the breeding station for young orphaned elephants is a must. Being eaten out of your hand by giraffes in the giraffe park is a special kind of experience. The guides were nice and catered to our special requests. One of us advanced the money for an entry, where we had to pay with dollar cash, until we later had an ATM to return the money in.

Nice compact trip. Were with a driver and a small group in the national park and saw lions. Then we went to the elephant house, seeing the little elephants was great, we had as much time as we needed for everything. We also went to a local restaurant. Then we went to the giraffes and the bomas with a 1.5 hour show and a visit to the different villages/tribes. The entrance fees still had to be paid, so we recommend (except NP, since only a card) to have cash with you is faster and easier
