The Nairobi National Park boasts as being the only wildlife park that is so close to a city – only a short drive out of Nairobi’s central business district. Wide open grassy plains are home to a spectacular variety of wild animals, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, buffaloes and over 400 species of birds. The National Park is also a major sanctuary for the endangered black rhino and specializes in breeding these animals and restocking other parks across Africa. Four out of the mythical Big Five (ie. lions, buffalo, leopards and rhinos) among other animals are in the park.There are 100 mammal species here. The park is unique in that its city skyline is in sharp contrast to the African savannah paradise only seven kilometers out of the bustling urban setting. What's

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage cost?
+
Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Nairobi National Park , Giraffe center & Elephant Orphanage start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 days group joining safari to Maasai Mara with a Land Cruiser Jeep, 1 Day trip to Hells Gate and optional Lake Naivasha From Nairobi, Nairobi Masai village Day Tour Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
