Visitors can enjoy the park’s picnic sites, three campsites and the walking trails for hikers.

Despite such  proximity, over  50  species of  mammals  can  be  found there, including  four  of  the  Big  Five  with  elephant  species  not being  represented.  The tour also includes a visit to the animal orphanage at the park gate or Nairobi Safari Walk.

Nairobi City Tour

It is ever important never to say that you visited France, arriving into Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, had a wonderful stay and failed to see the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre-Dame de Paris among other key landmarks or failed to meet and talk to a few Parisians?

Visit Nairobi's Masai Market, Kazuri Bead Factory or Utamaduni Crafts Center to shop for sourvenirs.

Our wish as tour leaders and holiday organizers is that our guests a few hours to be taken around the city we know and help you create a journey experience that cannot be better without some photo memories of it. This is a tour of the key landmarks of the city of Nairobi. Take great photos of the city from the sloping Uhuru park, on the top floor of Kenyatta International Conventions Center, or from a hotel/restaurant in Upper Hill with sweeping views of the city and finally end the National Museum where spell-binding displays of the early man, tribal regalia and flora / fauna  of  Kenya.  A visit to the adjacent snake park adjoining the Museum is also included.

The Tamarind Carnivore Restaurant

As the name suggests, grilled meat is a great African delicacy from the days of the hunter and the gatherer. Swahili is "Nyama Choma". At Carnivore, you have a chance to be carnivorous for a few hours. Cuts from various species are sent round with expertly done exotic sauces only found here. A must visit this day and the end of the safari.
