Itinerary
A sunrise tour of Nairobi National Park typically starts with a hotel pickup between 5:30 AM and 6:00 AM to ensure you are at the main gate when the park opens at 6:00 AM. These 4- to 5-hour guided game drives offer the best chance to see predators like lions and cheetahs before they retreat from the midday heat.
Tour Highlights & Experience
Optimal Wildlife Viewing: Animals are most active in the early morning. You can spot the "Big Four" (lion, leopard, rhino, and buffalo), though the park does not house elephants due to its size.
Iconic Skyline Views: Experience the unique contrast of wildlife grazing against the backdrop of Nairobi's towering skyscrapers.
Scenic Stops: Most tours include a visit to the
Ivory Burning Site Monument and viewpoints like the Diana Desai Observation Point.
Vehicle Options: Tours are conducted in open-roof safari vans or 4x4 Land Cruisers to provide a 360-degree viewing experience.
