Nairobi Travel Guide

 17 Reviews  Giraffe Center is situated about 15 kilometres far from Nairobi and not easy to reach there unless you take the taxi. Make sure to stipulate the price for a ride before departure, in both directions, and to pay it after coming back to town. Not all taxi drivers are honest, infact, most of them... 

 5 Reviews  The Uhuru Park is the most popular recreational park in Nairobi, is a rich tapestry of strife and celebration in Kenya. The sight of soldiers resplendent in colorful uniforms and marching to music beautifully performed by a military band, is as common as the violent disruption of political protests... 

 21 Reviews  This modest monument in Nairobi National Park commemorates the founding of the park in 1946 - the first national park in Kenya, which opened the door for the subsequent proclamation of iconic parks such as Masai Mara and Amboseli. 

 7 Reviews  Many others here on VirtualTourist have written about this museum. I am not going to add any more to what they have said. While I will do is provide a list of links here for those who would like to read further about what others have said about this museum. Karen Blixen was a settler here in the... 

 9 Reviews  The National Museum in Nairobi is a wonderful place to visit if you have some spare time. I was actually stuck in Nairobi due to flight issues, so I headed to the museum to see what was there. This place had several interesting collections, both dealing with natural history as well as cultural and... 

 5 Reviews  Crescent Island is situated on lake Naivasha and is actually a private game sanctuary. As mentioned earlier, you are able to do a walking safari here where you can get up close and personal with a multitude of wildlife including zebra, wildebeest, gazelle, vervet monkeys, hares, genet cats,... 

 3 Reviews  The trip through the Great Rift Valley is certainly spectacular and, believe it or not, the 14 hour drive is certainly well worth the effort. The Great Rift Valley in Kenya is well known as the domain of the Maasai people who live in simple tow or three room mud huts, arranged in a circle and... 

 4 Reviews  If you are short on time (or money) and do not wish to do a full safari, then Nairobi has its own small version right by the actual city. You can see a large number of animals, though some said this was more like a UK safari Park in scale than a real wilderness such as the Massai Mara. 

 3 Reviews  Always I try to see the local spirit by venturing into the financial and commercial districts. Towering skyscrapers nd well-heeled locals abound in & around Kenyatta Avenue, definitely worth a stroll instead of the masai market! Additionally the shops and restaurants off kenyatta along banda &... 

 3 Reviews  We took our 4 year old niece to this attraction today and had the most negative experience of my time in Kenya. Firstly, one website mentioned the feeding time as 1pm, so we rushed through traffic to get there. After we had paid, we were told it was at 2.30pm, so we wanted to take our 4 year old to...
