Wildlife. City skyline. One unforgettable morning.
Before You Book
No — it's per vehicle, for up to 7 guests. A family of five pays the same as a couple.
Set by KWS and based on nationality and residency. You pay only your own entry — we cover the vehicle and driver charges. Tell us who's travelling and we'll send the exact figure. Payment at the gate is cashless (M-Pesa or Visa).
Usually 5:30–6:30 AM, when game viewing is best. If that's too early, we'll adjust.
Four live here — lion, leopard, buffalo and rhino, with the densest black-rhino population on earth. There are no elephants in the park, which is why Sheldrick is such a popular add-on.
Yes — Nairobi National Park is under twenty minutes from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), and airport pick-up and drop-off is standard. A layover safari is a great use of a few free hours between flights.
Yes, for an additional fee — just mention it when you message us and we'll include it in your quote.
