Game Drive in Nairobi National Park

  • Meet your tour representative at your hotel in Nairobi and drive to the park gate via Langata Road, passing Wilson Airport. The journey to the gate, with views of the Kibera slums along the way, takes about 20 to 30 minutes from town, depending on traffic.
  • Arrive at Nairobi National Park, just a few kilometres from Nairobi's bustling city centre. Despite its proximity to the city, the park is home to many species of mammals, including four of the Big Five. Giraffes, zebras, hippos, impalas, buffaloes, lions, hartebeests, Thomson's gazelles, and Grant's gazelles are commonly seen in groups across this savanna grassland.
  • Return to the city centre by sunset for the afternoon departure, or by sunrise for the morning departure.

(Note: The group tour starts daily at 6:30 am and 2 pm.)
