Duration:
04:00 hours
Description
See endangered Rothschild giraffes at Nairobi's Giraffe Centre on a trip that goes beyond 'Giraffe Manor' to explore landscape where the graceful animals live.
Meet a guide at your Nairobi hotel for the trip to the Karen area of Nairobi, a leafy suburb at the edge of the Ngong Road Forest. Learn about the work of the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife that's headquartered at the Giraffe Centre, and hear the story of the Giraffe Centre's most famous resident, rescued giraffe calf from western Kenya named Daisy Rothschild.
Explore the non-profit Giraffe Centre, where Rothschild giraffes mingle with a herd of local warthogs in a semi-wild environment. Watch the giraffes cluster around their feeding station, extending their long, black tongues to lap up food.
Leave the crowds behind on a small nature trail, listen to East African birdsong, and take in the plants that grow along the Gogo River-try to spot the resident giraffes as they sway through the forest.
After the hike at a relaxed pace leave the Giraffe Centre for the return trip to your hotel.
