Nairobi Wildlife Day & Carnivore Combo

Giraffe, elephant and rhino in one morning, then lunch or dinner at the Carnivore

  • Day trip

The three things everyone wants to do in Nairobi, run as one day so you are not paying for three separate transfers. The Giraffe Centre, the Sheldrick elephant and rhino orphanage, and a meal at the Carnivore — the open charcoal pit restaurant that has been a Nairobi institution since 1980. Take it with lunch or with dinner.

Trip highlights

  • Hand-feeding endangered Rothschild's giraffe from the Giraffe Centre platform
  • The Sheldrick orphans' feed and mud bath, with the keepers telling you each one's story
  • Rhino at the orphanage alongside the elephants
  • A meal at the Carnivore, carved at your table off Maasai swords
  • One vehicle and one guide for the whole day, rather than three separate pick-ups
