Nairobi

Nairobi is the world's only capital city with a national park inside its borders. Giraffes and zebras graze against a backdrop of skyscrapers, and the city is gateway to two of Africa's most heartwarming wildlife experiences: hand-feeding endangered giraffes at the Giraffe Centre and visiting orphaned baby elephants at the Sheldrick Trust. It's the perfect place to begin or end your safari.
