You will be walking around the sanctuary with a guide, to experience all the animals within it and really get the 'out of Africa' experience. Dependent on the guest, we are able to adapt the walking trail if the guest would like to walk or relax for longer. There are also tyre swings on trees, to entertain the kids (or adults). This is the closest you'll ever get to giraffes and ostriches without any walls / fences in between!

    Surreal Experience

    Please wear comfortable shoes you do not mind getting dirty. Short walk (about 15-20 mins) around the nature park. Please wear a brimmed hat to block sun. Being so close to giraffes was surreal! They didn’t seem bothered by our presence at all. Our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable and friendly.

    Buy tickets direct

    Definitely worth a visit but cheaper to buy tickets from the actual Nguuni Sanctuary website directly, as the guide is from there anyway. Make sure you ask your driver to drop you off at View Point, not the entrance

    Great proximity to the animals but…

    Great proximity to the animals. Tour guide was pleasant but left us for 20min to guide another group without asking or clarifying, just told us to rest and then we saw him with the other group. Also a little concerned about some of the animal’s care. Many of the ostriches had plucked out patches of their feathers. Otherwise the animals looked good and at ease. However some of the patrons were also picking up the tortoises and rough handling them a little bit with it anyone to oversee.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed being so close to the animals and appreciate your kind words about the guide. We're sorry to hear about your concerns during the experience. We take animal welfare and guest experience very seriously and will share your feedback with the team for review. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    Definitely Visit this Sanctuary

    We met our guide, Omar, at the sanctuary and started the walking tour of the grounds. Previous to this, we completed two national park tours in Kenya via a pop up type Jeep. Let me say this, you will not get as close to any animals in the national parks as you will here. Giraffes will pass feet away from you. Ostriches will let you touch/pet them. Groups of antelopes are a little skittish but you can still get near them. Tour took less than 90 minutes. Omar was magnificent. Pointed out various bird species, animal tracks and shared his knowledge of the sanctuary and animals. I promise this will be an unforgettable experience.

    Response from the operator: What a lovely review, thank you! We couldn't agree more that there is something special about experiencing wildlife on foot. We're so happy Omar helped make the experience memorable with his knowledge of the animals and birdlife. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

    Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mombasa.

    How much does Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa cost?

    +

    Prices start at $38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mombasa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Mombasa is not rushed.

    Is Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 33 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mombasa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa?

    +

    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 Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa?

    +

    Around 12 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 Mombasa 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 Mombasa and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa 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 Mombasa 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 Mombasa?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Mombasa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mombasa City Tour, Walking Tour Through Old Town Mombasa and Fort Jesus, Visit to Fort Jesus and the Old Town of Mombasa. 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 Mombasa?

    +

    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 Mombasa?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa?

    +

    Included: All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Snacks; and Bottled water. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa?

    +

    Meet your guide at the gate entrance. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Nature Walk with Giraffes in Mombasa?
