Which Are the Best 1 Day Nairobi Town Excursions

If you have a spare day or a free afternoon in Nairobi, you may want to go on a wildlife tour to the Nairobi national park or even go and get close and personal with some giraffes at the giraffe centre. The Daphne Sheldrick baby elephant orphanage is also a very popular city excursion trip where you get to see and touch the baby elephants at the orphanage

Nairobi national park is a very popular destination for a 1 day Nairobi city excursion safari. The park is located within few minutes from the city centre and is the only park inside a capital city in the world. The park is 117 sqkm in size and has over 50 mammal species and 500 bird species.

Your national park excursion tour also includes a walking safari by the river to see the hippos and the crocodiles. The tour is done in a custom developed safari mini van with pop-up roof top which opens and lets you see the game while standing. You can combine a tour to Nairobi national park with a giraffe center day excursion.

The orphanage is also managed by a Wildlife trust that has been operational for the last 34 years and has many projects in Kenya. You can make a donation adopt an elephant baby and they will keep you posted on its progress with a regular newsletter.

Visitors can see these lovely creatures when they are being bottles fed with milk from 11am to 12pm at the orphanage. Its always fund to see them rush for the milk bottles and as they play in the mud pools. The caregivers will give you a short history of each of them and a brief of their circumstances.
