Nairobi National Park is a unique safari destination located just 7 kilometers from Kenya’s capital city, Nairobi, making it the only national park in the world within a major city’s boundaries. Despite its proximity to urban life, the park is home to a wide array of wildlife, including lions, leopards, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, and more than 400 bird species. The park is also a crucial sanctuary for the endangered black rhino, which can often be seen grazing in its open plains against the backdrop of Nairobi’s skyline.

In addition to game drives, visitors can explore the Nairobi Animal Orphanage and the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, which operates an elephant orphanage on the park’s edge. Nairobi National Park is an ideal destination for travelers with limited time or those seeking a quick safari experience without leaving the city.
