With more than four million inhabitants and an area of almost 700km², Nairobi is the largest city in Kenya as its capital. To be fair, it can be said that Nairobi, because of its high pollution rate and population density, is not seen as the most pleasant city. Yet this metropolis certainly has its charms and there are many nice places to visit.
For wildlife you must be in Nairobi National Park. This park, which is located 24 km from the center, can be visited on a beautiful morning or afternoon. Even though it is the smallest national park in Kenya, there are still many different animals to be found. With the Nairobi skyline in the background, it gives you a unique feeling.
For a historical background you can visit the Nairobi National Museum and the Karen Blixen Museum.
Have you ever fed a giraffe or received a kiss from these long necks? This is possible at the Giraffe Center. Or would you prefer feeding milk to a baby elephant? Then you should pay a visit to the elephant orphanage.
Naturally, Nairobi also has a lot to offer in terms of culture. Experience traditionally built huts, bustling dance rituals and handmade costumes at the Bomas of Kenya. Browse the Maasai Market for a souvenir for family or to treat yourself with a nice gift. You can end your day by relaxing and enjoying a real Kenyan "Nyama Choma", roasted meat on the grill.
The reality also forces us to say that in Nairobi hundreds of thousands of people live in the slums of Kibera. Also many people live or used to live on the streets and have their stories to share. Would you like to pay them a respectful visit, listen to their stories and support them by hiring a local guide? We can connect you with the right people.
