Half Day Private Safari Tour of Nairobi National Park
Imagine that just a short time ago you were in a world-class capital city. Now you and your group are on the plains where thousands of wildebeest and zebras come every year on their yearly journey.
Even though the park is only 10 km (6 mi) south of Nairobi, lions and hyenas are often seen there. It’s almost strange to be so close to wild nature; your friends won’t believe your pictures!
There are also hundreds of different kinds of bright birds, rhinos, hippos, and ostriches to see in this one-of-a-kind place. Safari Trips to Kenya is very proud to show off this park, which we have called home for many years.
Please help us save the kifaru, or rhino.
Can you learn Kiswahili? Now you know what kifaru means: a rhinoceros. The name “Kifaru Ark” comes from the fact that the park is home to the most threatened black rhinos in Kenya.
Your visit helps pay for the rhinos’ care and safety in the park. Because of how well the protection efforts have been working, the number of rhinos has steadily grown. These rare animals are now being brought to other parks across the country from this park.
It is possible to walk the walk in Nairobi National Park.
The park also has walking tracks, which make it stand out. There are many walking tracks in this national park, but not in most of them. You can choose from a number of well-marked tracks to get closer to the action.
There is also a path that leads to the hippo pool, where you can also look out for snakes. As you walk along these paths, keep your camera handy in case you see a white or black rhino, cheetah, buffalo, or even a leopard or lion.
Poaching—A Monument to the Burning Ivory
It’s possible that the Ivory Burning Monument is the most striking sign in the park. Several Kenyan leaders have burned hundreds of tons of illegal ivory here as a protest against the widespread poaching of elephants. This is about 5% of all the ivory that has ever been caught in the world.
Kenya became aware of this criminal business through these dramatic ceremonies, and the country began a dedicated effort to protect its elephants.
