Nairobi

Nairobi is the world’s only capital city boasting a national park right on its doorstep. As East Africa’s economic and cultural hub, the "Green City in the Sun" serves as the primary gateway for safari adventures while offering distinct attractions of its own. Visitors can witness endangered black rhinos and lions framed by city skyscrapers in Nairobi National Park, hand-feed Rothschild’s giraffes at the Giraffe Centre, and visit orphaned baby elephants at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Rich in colonial and modern history, Nairobi features vibrant arts scenes, culinary hotspots, and the historic Karen Blixen Museum.
