NAIROBI’S FINEST!

Nairobi is unique in having a wildlife park right on its doorstep!.

Enjoy a visit to the 117km2 Nairobi National Park situated only 7 kilometers from the city centre. This park is one of the most successful of the Kenyans rhino sanctuaries. It is possible to photograph a rhino, browsing peace fully among the whistling thorn with high-rise office buildings in the backdrop!.

Some of the wildlife is migratory and when vegetation and water are present outside the park, they move out into Maasailand through the unfenced southern boundary. A visit at any time of the year to see resident population of plains game and predators is a rewarding experience!.

The park is a model for all others, of the most popular species only the elephant is an absentee. But the rest of the Big Five: leopard, lion, buffalo and rhino – as well as a multitude of other creatures are all well represented.

Visit Nairobi Safari Walk, Kenya’s new conservation based recreation facility. The combination of skilled and creative landscape design, unique wildlife species and detailed interpretation, renders the facility supremacy in tourism and conservation education

Teachers and students at all levels can utilize the Safari Walk as a learning resource center based on their school curriculum. KWS has a variety of learning resources including the habitats, plant species, a classroom, and plant nursery and demonstration plot. The KWS education staff will also prepare specific learning activities for your students on request. Take-home-learning resources will be given to all participants in any of their programs
