Nairobi Wildlife Encounters and Cultural Dinner Show

  • You will be picked up at 6:00 am from your hotel or airport and head to Nairobi National Park, where you will enter through the main gate for a three-hour game drive. Your guide will aim to show you as many different animals as possible, and you may even spot rhinos and lions preparing for the morning.
  • Then continue to the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, which is open only for a short period each day from 11:00 am to 12:00. Here, you will learn more about the baby elephants, what led them to become orphans, how they are raised, and the efforts being made to reintroduce them to the wilderness.
  • After this, you will have about an hour for lunch at your own expense. Then proceed to the Giraffe Center, where you will see these magnificent creatures and learn why they are endangered. You will also discover more about their behaviour and traits, receive conservation education, and have the chance to feed them and maybe even get a giraffe kiss.
  • Next, proceed to Bomas of Kenya for an exciting experience with local cultural dancers and a showcase of the early traditional homesteads of Kenya's communities.
  • Later in the evening, enjoy a sumptuous dinner.
  • You will have advanced reservations at Nairobi's premier dinner and cultural show at the stunning Safari Park Hotel. Small-group tours include door-to-door pickup and comfortable transfers in a private vehicle. Watch colourful acrobatic performances and listen to live music from local Swahili acts while enjoying a traditional Kenyan dinner with classics like barbecued meat and jacket potatoes.
  • A buffet dinner and live musical show at Nairobi's Safari Park Hotel runs from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Dinner is served while you listen to a live band playing local, African, Kenyan, Swahili, and country music. At 9:00 pm, the show begins at 10:00 pm (local timings). This is a one-hour show. Essentially Kenyan in both atmosphere and cuisine, you will be offered a stunning selection of roasted, barbecued meats, sizzling hot, presented on skewers and carved at your table, accompanied by jacket potatoes, crispy salads, and tasty dips. Choose from prime Kenyan steak, succulent chicken, and traditionally roasted mutton, and enjoy a variety of meats, with plenty of vegetarian options too.
  • After the show, you will be dropped off at your hotel.
