Nairobi: Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen, and Bead Factory Tour

Discover the Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen Museum, and Kobe Beads Factory on a guided tour from Nairobi. See the giraffes up close, learn about the history of the area, and see the bead-making process.
Begin your tour with a pickup from your Nairobi accommodation/hotel. Head to the Giraffe Centre, the headquarters of the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife, made famous by Daisy Rothschild. Experience the thrill of being eye-to-eye with a giraffe, getting a true sense of their size. The education center provides extensive information about the breeding and conservation of Kenya’s rarest giraffe species. Learn about their behaviors and traits while enjoying an up-close encounter on a raised observation platform.

Next, visit the Kobe Beads Factory, renowned for producing some of the world’s most beautiful beads. Witness the entire process from start to finish. This unique factory employs single mothers from impoverished neighborhoods, providing them with a means to support their families. The pottery, ceramic, and bead factory exports its stunning gifts and souvenirs globally. The gift shop, which is open seven days a week, offers a variety of their creations. Please note that the workshop is closed on Saturday afternoons and all day Sunday, though the gift shop remains open.

The final stop is the historic home of Danish author Karen Blixen, now a museum. This colonial house and the surrounding Ngong Hills gained fame from the book and movie “Out of Africa.” It’s a must-see for Danes and enthusiasts of African history and romance. The tour concludes with a return to your hotel around 5 pm.
