Kenya’s Capital and Beyond
Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya, serves as a major gateway to the entire East African safari circuit, often being the starting and ending point for most Nairobi safaris. It’s the ideal place to stock up on last-minute essentials before heading into the African wilderness.
Over the past decade, Nairobi has developed significantly, becoming one of Africa’s largest and most interesting cities. A place of great contrasts, the modern world has quickly integrated with traditional life, creating unique scenes such as Maasai warriors in traditional red robes speaking on mobile phones or riding motorbikes.
Nairobi boasts vibrant streets filled with bustling markets and colorful bazaars, making it one of the best places in East Africa for souvenir hunting. As the commercial and cultural center of Kenya, Nairobi offers a good selection of tourist attractions, including Africa’s biggest ice rink and several fine museums. The city has boundless energy, a pulsing nightlife, and a variety of excellent restaurants. For a unique wildlife experience, visit the Daphne & David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, ideal for a day trip. Here, orphaned baby elephants and other animals are cared for by a dedicated team of conservationists, offering visitors the opportunity to get close to these playful and feeding elephants.
Nairobi’s accommodation options are abundant, ranging from luxurious hotels to more affordable lodges, catering to each traveler’s unique taste and budget. Ideally located, Nairobi serves as a great pit stop before or after your trip to the Masai Mara and Amboseli National Park, making it a perfect base for Nairobi safaris.
