What you can expect

Giraffe Centre
The tour start by picking you from Nairobi Airport or your Nairobi Hotel. Proceed to the Giraffe Centre, the headquarter for the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife made famous by “Daisy Rothschild”, a giraffe calf rescued from Soi, on the Western Kenya border. Daisy and her family form only a small part of a herd of these gentle giants, living in a semi wild state at Giraffe Manor. You will also learn their behaviours, traits and more conservation education. These animals will come to a protecting wall to be fed.

Elephant Orphanage
The next step is David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage - Tour Elephant Orphanage a walk through the little centre from 11am - 12pm in an open space, with a rope fence around it. The youngest elephants come trotting out of the bush to greet their keepers who stand at the ready with giant bottles of milk. For the next 10-15 minutes you can watch each little one slurp and gargle their milk. When they're done, there's water to play with and keepers to nudge and get hugs from. The most common reasons for getting orphaned being: mother's poached, falling into wells, and human/wildlife conflict. Once the youngest are all fed, they are led back into the bush, and it's the turn of the 2-3 year olds. Some of them can feed themselves, and some are still fed by their keepers. It's very cute to watch them hold their giant milk bottles in their trunks and close their eyes with joy as they make quick work of several gallons of milk then be dropped back to the Airport .
