Nairobi National Park Half-Day Game Drive
The world's only national park inside a capital city — lion, rhino and giraffe against a skyline, in four hours.
Nairobi National Park is a genuine oddity: 117 km² of open plain holding lion, black rhino, buffalo and giraffe, with the city's office towers on the northern horizon. It is the single best use of a spare morning in Nairobi.
We collect you from your hotel at 06:00 for the dawn drive — the animals are active and the light is at its best — and have you back by 11:00.
