The museum belongs to a different time period in the history of Kenya; Karen Blixen Museum is a colonial house, where Baroness Karen Blixen lived with her husband. The Museum is famed for the “Out of Africa” film, an account of Karen Blixen’s life in Kenya. The house was purchased by the Danish government and granted to the Kenyan government as an independence gift. The then farmhouse was established as a museum in 1986 by the National Museums of Kenya. The museum continues to captivate visitors inspired by Karen’s life story. Tourist line safaris gives you a chance to experience this history in a unique way.
This is an orphanage, for elephant calves and rhinos from all over Kenya. Today, the Sheldrick orphanage is best known for its elephant rescue project. The baby elephants are specially nursed by dedicated staff, as they are highly dependent on milk. Elephant calves are a challenge to raise, as they are dependent on their mother’s milk for the first two years. The baby elephants at the Sheldrick nursery are bottle fed with a special milk formula. They are also necessarily covered in blankets to protect them from the morning cold. When the elephants are stable enough to survive on their own in the wild, they are then moved to Tsavo National Park, where they are carefully reintroduced into wild herds. Enjoy a heartwarming sight of the calves being bottle fed on their milk formula, and after, a happy, playful and splashy mud bath like toddlers, to keep cool under the harsh sun, with tourist line safaris!
A visit to the Giraffe Centre is the perfect activity to do when stopping over in Nairobi for a day or two before heading off on a Kenya safari. The Giraffe Centre offers visitors the opportunity to get up close andpersonal with these friendly giants. The Giraffe Centre is open daily from 09:00 am to 5:00 pm including weekends and public holidays. There is an elevated feeding platform that allows you to hand feed the giraffes, which can be an education in itself. You can see, close at hand, how the giraffe uses its long prehensile tongue to strip leaves from the acacia branches. There is a teahouse and curio shop there; also a 2 Km nature trail to walk through. Feeding the giraffes is the most exciting part!
