Giraffe Centre

The tour starts by picking you from your Hotel/Home within Nairobi. You will be driven to Giraffe centre where you feed Rothschild giraffes under the supervision of keepers. The center has rescued, hand-reared and released around 500 orphaned giraffes back into the wild since opening in 1979. This attraction offers opportunities to feed the endangered Rothschild's giraffe by hand. The location also offers a fine education on the physiology, behaviors and habitat preferences of these beautiful animals.

Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

You will then be driven to David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to walk through the center from 11am - 12pm in an open space, with a rope fence around it. The youngest elephants come trotting out of the bush to greet their keepers who stand at the ready with giant bottles of milk. For the next 10-15 minutes you can watch each little one slurp and gargle their milk. Then, you'll have time to watch the elephants play. You find out how old they were when they arrived at the orphanage, where they were rescued from, and what got them into trouble. The most common reasons for getting orphaned being: mother's poached, falling into wells, and human/wildlife conflict. Once the youngest are all fed, they are led back into the bush, and it's the turn of the 2-3 year olds. Some of them can feed themselves, and some are still fed by their keepers. Watch them interact with their keepers, munch on some branches of their favorite acacias, and play with the half drums of water and mud

This experience is totally breathtaking and makes lifetime memories, every part of the experience was truly excellent from seeing the Giraffes and feeding them to seeing the Elephants feeding also and having a great time playing! Then you go too the Kobe Tough, bead and leather experience where you see how much detail and work goes into making world class leather and bead items, so much to choose from. Everyone welcomes you with a great smile, lovely dancing and lots of lovely interactions. This is an experience no one in the world should ever miss.
Very nice experience

We had a wonderful experience with Stephen as our guide. He got us to the best viewing location for the elephant orphanage and the giraffe center. And then he took us to a very nice restaurant for lunch. The food was great as was his company and narrative of what we were seeing and doing. Thank you Stephen.

The experience was everything I hoped for. Low stress, relaxing. The giraffe and elephant centers are run well with the visitor’s experience front and center. Joe my tour guide was courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend.
