Nairobi Day Tour: David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Centre

Your first destination is the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, which is open from 11 am to 12 noon for just one hour. Here, you’ll have the rare chance to interact with rescued baby and teenage elephants. Learn about their incredible rescue stories, how they got their names, and the efforts being made to reintegrate them back into the wild.

Next, you'll visit the Giraffe Centre, where you’ll learn about ongoing conservation efforts to protect the endangered Rothschild giraffes. Get up close with these gentle giants, feed them, and capture unforgettable selfies.

Your tour continues to the Kazuri Beads Factory, a remarkable pottery company renowned for producing some of the world’s most beautiful handmade beads. Discover the entire bead-making process from start to finish, and learn about their mission to provide employment opportunities to single mothers from disadvantaged backgrounds.

You can then choose to be taken to a local restaurant for lunch before heading back to your hotel. Alternatively, at no additional transport cost, we are happy to drive you to the Karen Blixen Museum. Here, you’ll uncover the inspiring story of the famous author of "Out of Africa" and her profound impact on the local community.
