Giraffe Center Nairobi Tour – Feed Rothschild Giraffes

The Giraffe Centre Nairobi tour offers one of the most unique wildlife experiences in Kenya, allowing you to get up close and personal with the endangered Rothschild giraffes. Located just outside Nairobi, this is one of the most popular Nairobi half-day tours for visitors of all ages.

The center was established in response to the alarming decline in the Rothschild giraffe population, which had dropped to just 130 individuals in the wild due to habitat loss and agricultural expansion.

Giraffe Center Conservation Story

Through successful conservation and fundraising efforts, several groups of Rothschild giraffes were relocated to protected areas including:

  • Lake Nakuru National Park
  • Nasalot Game Reserve
  • Mwea Game Reserve
  • Ruma National Park

Thanks to these efforts, the population has grown to over 500 giraffes in Kenya, making the Giraffe Center one of Africa’s great conservation success stories.

Tour Highlights

  • Feed endangered Rothschild giraffes
