Nairobi: The safari capital of Kenya

Book your visit to Nairobi

Nairobi is a city frequented for its natural beauty and wildlife. It also surprises visitors with its welcoming, urban vibrancy. From June to October, the dry season’s clear skies and warm weather create the perfect conditions for wildlife viewing and outdoor adventure. The city boasts an abundance of lush landscapes and astonishing African wildlife, with national parks, reserves and even city parks.

A lively cultural hotspot, Nairobi pulses with a rich blend of history, traditions and art. Dive into the city’s vibrant local customs and savour some speciality cuisine to truly experience its charming character. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or cultural immersion, Nairobi promises an unforgettable journey.

Things to do in Nairobi

If you’re visiting Nairobi for its stunning wildlife and incredible nature experiences, then you’re in for a treat. Kick off your Kenyan adventure at Nairobi National Park, a unique sanctuary where you can marvel at the Big Five – lions, leopards, rhinoceros, elephants and buffalos.

Discover the history of Nairobi at the National Museum, home to an extensive collection of artefacts that tell the story of the nation’s heritage. Don’t miss the Karen Blixen Museum – once home to the well-known author of ‘Out of Africa’, it offers a glimpse into Blixen’s life in the Kenyan countryside.

Experience Kenya’s cultural diversity at the Bomas of Kenya, a vibrant centre that comes alive with traditional dance, music and crafts from various communities.

Activities in Nairobi

What’s a trip to Nairobi without a wild animal encounter? Stop by Giraffe Centre – just a short drive from the city centre – for an unforgettable experience with the endangered Rothschild giraffes. You can feed these gentle giants and maybe even get a nose nuzzle!

A visit to the renowned elephant nursery of David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is another must-do. You can book a time to join the orphaned elephants at their midday mud baths and bottle feeds, while gaining insight into the trust’s conservation efforts.

Make sure to explore Karura Forest – its lush greenery, waterfalls and serene atmosphere make it the perfect urban sanctuary within the city. If you’re up for a day trip, head to Oloolua Nature Trail, just outside the city, and hike through its indigenous forests along a scenic river.

Food in Nairobi

Sample Kenyan street food in the Maasai Market, where you can try ugali, a maize flour staple often served alongside savoury stews.

Meat lovers should head to Kenyatta Market to taste some of the town’s best nyama choma, a tantalising grilled meat dish. Another must-try is irio, a traditional Kikuyu dish made from mashed potatoes, peas and corn, often paired with nyama choma.

If you’re craving variety, Nairobi also offers a delightful range of international cuisine options, from Indian to Italian and more.

Shopping in Nairobi

Begin your shopping adventure at the Village Market, where you can find fashion, jewellery and home décor crafted by local artisans.

Wander along Ngong Road, a popular spot for tourists, and explore a wide array of handmade homewares. You can shop for exquisite pottery, woven baskets, and other artisanal treasures that reflect the rich cultural heritage of the region.

Visit Maasai Market for souvenirs from the Maasai people, including beautiful beadwork, intricate masks and other crafts. For a taste of shopping that is quite bespoke, head to Kitengela Glass – a studio famous for its recycled art, with detailed glass sculptures and tableware.
