A place with its own character

Why choose
Nairobi National Park?

Nairobi National Park brings open grassland and wildlife country close to the capital. It can be a focused safari experience in its own right or the first chapter of a longer Kenya trip.

Choose a focused game drive when time is limited. Add separate wildlife-centre visits only when their reservations and transfer times fit your day.

Look a little closer

What makes
this place different.

Each destination has its own landscapes, wildlife habitats and activities. Private guiding follows the booked itinerary and the permitted routes.

Look for rhinos and plains wildlife

The park is an important rhino sanctuary. Explore grassland and bushland patiently; sightings and skyline views depend on conditions.

Enjoy a different city perspective

A game drive changes the pace of a Nairobi stay. Leave time for hotel transfers and city traffic as well as wildlife searching.

Build a thoughtful combination

The Giraffe Centre and Sheldrick Wildlife Trust are separate visits. Their bookings, entry conditions and transfers must be confirmed individually.

Good to know

Nairobi National Park does not have a resident wild elephant population. An elephant-orphanage visit is a separate, reservation-dependent activity.

Choose a base that makes sense

Where you stay
shapes your safari.

Camp and lodge location determines access to wildlife areas and the length of transfers. The accommodation booking identifies the property, room category and meal plan.

Your existing Nairobi hotel

Nairobi day tours use the existing hotel as the pickup and return base, with transfer coverage specified in the booking.

A park-edge property

Park-edge accommodation provides a Nairobi base close to the wildlife landscape. The property’s access route and the itinerary determine transfers and park entries.

The start of a longer safari

An overnight in Nairobi can create breathing room before travelling to the Mara, Amboseli or the northern circuit.

Compare the whole trip.

The safari total covers the items listed in the quotation: accommodation, meals, private transport, guiding, entries, activities and transfers. Rates vary by season, party size and room arrangement.

A little planning goes a long way

Make the journey
work for you.

Choose a focused game drive when time is limited. Add separate wildlife-centre visits only when their reservations and transfer times fit your day.

When to visit

Morning game drives use the cooler part of the day. Recent rainfall, visibility and Nairobi traffic shape the programme and transfer times.

Fees and what is included

Entry fees follow the park or conservancy authority, visitor category, age, travel dates and activities. The safari quotation itemises the entries included in the itinerary.

Before you decide

A few useful
answers.

Share your priorities and we can help you choose a realistic route.

Will I see elephants on the game drive?

Choose a focused game drive when time is limited. Add separate wildlife-centre visits only when their reservations and transfer times fit your day.

Can I combine this with other parks?

Yes. The collection includes multi-destination safaris. Each trip page sets out the daily route, overnight stops and transfers.

Is my safari private?

Your park road safari uses an exclusive vehicle and guide for your own party. Accommodation and separately booked activities can have shared facilities; specialist arrangements are confirmed in the quote.

What do you need for an accurate quote?

Send dates, adults, children’s ages, preferred accommodation, vehicle choice and any activities that matter to you. Mention Nairobi National Park and your available travel days.
