Nairobi Nationalpark Nairobi, as a capital city, is unique in having a wildlife park on its doorstep. It is possible to photograph a rhino, browsing peacefully amongst the whistling thorn with high rise buildings in the background !
Some of the wildlife is migratory and when there is grazing and water outside the park it moves out into Maasai-Land through the unfenced southern boundary.
But there is also a resident population of plains game and carnivores so a visit at any time of the year is rewarding.
The tour departs at 14:00 hrs till 18:00 hrs.
