Nairobi National Park Safari

Nairobi National Park is a unique wildlife sanctuary located just a stone's throw away from Kenya's bustling capital city. Established in 1946, it is the oldest national park in East Africa and covers an area of approximately 117 square kilometers. What makes this park truly remarkable is its proximity to the urban landscape, offering visitors a rare opportunity to spot a diverse array of wildlife against the backdrop of Nairobi's skyscrapers.

Despite its relatively small size, Nairobi National Park boasts a rich variety of habitats, including open grasslands, acacia woodlands, and riverine forests. The park is home to over 100 mammal species, including lions, cheetahs, leopards, zebras, giraffes, and numerous herbivores. It also hosts over 400 bird species, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. Nairobi National Park plays a crucial role in wildlife conservation, providing a safe haven for endangered species and contributing to important research and education initiatives.
