Nairobi National Park - David Sheldrick Day Tour

Your Nairobi National Park and David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage adventure begins early in the morning with a pick-up from your hotel. After a brief introduction from your professional safari guide, you’ll drive to Nairobi National Park, located just 10 kilometers from the city center, the only wildlife park in the world in a capital city.
Enter the park as the sun rises and embark on an exciting morning game drive. The open savannah plains offer incredible chances to spot lions, leopards, rhinos, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, and more than 400 bird species all set against the dramatic backdrop of Nairobi’s skyline. The early morning is the best time to see predators as they finish their night hunts and herds grazing in the golden light of dawn. Your guide will take you through various park habitats from acacia woodlands to open grasslands while sharing fascinating facts about the animals and ecosystem.
After your game drive, proceed to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (Elephant Orphanage), a renowned rescue and rehabilitation center for orphaned baby elephants and rhinos. During your visit, you’ll have the chance to watch the baby elephants being fed milk by their keepers, play in the mud and learn each orphan’s rescue story and progress. It’s an emotional and inspiring experience that showcases Kenya’s dedication to wildlife conservation.
After the orphanage visit, you may choose to stop for lunch at a nearby restaurant in Nairobi. After your enriching day with Nairobi’s wildlife, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel, marking the end of your Nairobi National Park & Elephant Orphanage Tour, a perfect blend of safari adventure and conservation insight right in the heart of the city.
