NAIROBI

Kenya’s capital City

Your safari will begin and end here. You will be picked up at Jomo Kenyatta Internatinal Airport and taken to your hotel. We’ll give you a brief orientation and if your flight arrived in the evening, let you get to bed and meet you in the morning. If you arrived on an early flight, we’ll get you lunch and do some siteseeing in Nairobi. We may visit the Nairobi National Museum which will give you a good introduction to Kenya. The last night of the safari is usually spent in Nairobi. So, your last day will be spent visiting some of the attractions below.

Nairobi National Museum

The Museum hosts both temporary and permanent galleries.

The permanent galleries include The Cradle of Human Kind;

The Story of Mammals; The History of Kenya; Cycles of Life;

trust’s elephant orphanage located at the edge of Nairobi

National Park. The orphanage is open to the public for one hour every day.
