"Lost track of the amount of black and white rhinos we saw (about 15-20), which was even a record for our driver-guide.

Just a shame about the railway line that cuts through the heart of the park but hopefully any disturbances to wildlife would be remedied with time and care." Read more about this whole safari

"Safari in Nairobi National Park review"

Based at Giraffe Manor on 8 Nov 2024
"We saw a group of 5 white rhino and had lots of amazing animal sightings. The roads were very bumpy, but that added to the fun of exploring.
It was raining for most of our visit, but that meant we had closer animal encounters, as they weren't hiding in the shade. Our guides were knowledgeable and the bird life was fantastic." Read more about this whole safari

"It is a warm up excursion for those who are enroute to actual safari within major national reserves or parks.

Nonetheless, the view was interesting with the park in the middle and hazy city skyline surrounding it." Read more about this whole safari

"We did not see many of the big 5 here but, as we already had seen them all at Ol Pejeta, this was more of a bonus game drive.

We did see ostriches and a serval cat, neither of which had been at our camp.

The number of jeeps and minivans there made us glad we had spent the majority of our time at a small conservancy." Read more about this whole safari

"Safari in Nairobi National Park review"

Based at The Norfolk Hotel on 22 Sep 2024
"This was a real surprise, so much wildlife, so close to the city. I wouldn't do it at the end of a proper safari, as it doesn't compare, but it was a great "taster"." Read more about this whole safari

"The novelty here is that the park is right in the middle of the capital - definitely an unicum.

It's definitely worth braving the early wake-up call and starting early: in our experience we mostly saw animals only at the very beginning (i.e. 6.30am or so).

Very lucky at the beginning - we saw a couple lions from up close and a family of rhinos just snoozing off - it tapered off later on, although we were still lucky to see a giraffe and a rhino crossing the road just next to us. Plus a variety of birds and ostriches.

In short: if you're in Africa to do safaris in proper natural reserves, this won't impress you. But it's a good "soft intro" to safaris while being effectively in town." Read more about this whole safari
