Nairobi National Park
Where else in the world can you find herds of zebra and giraffe, lion and rhino families living free and wild just 20 minutes away from a major city centre? Nairobi National Park was Kenya’s first national park and remains one of Kenya’s greatest treasures. Visitors can observe herds of zebra and giraffe, lions and rhino families in their natural environment. (www.kws.go.ke/nairobi.html)
