Nairobi - Safari Pitstop

With the majority of our safaris starting or ending in Nairobi, safari pitstops in Nairobi are almost inevitable. Stay in Nairobi and you'll find a town full of hustle and bustle, which gives you a chance to experience a very real part of Africa - street hawkers, overflowing taxis, and probably some of the most unconventional driving in the world!

Like many other African cities, Nairobi has its share of bustling markets, skyscrapers, dusty shanties and leafy suburbs with sweeping gardens. It's a great safari pitstop where you can get your films developed, wander through book shops and send off your post cards to envious neighbours.

Nairobi has some great hotels and are plenty of places to eat, but Nairobi's most famous restaurant is The Carnivore, where you can taste anything from zebra to crocodile. With excellent restaurants and shopping opportunities, you'll find plenty to keep you busy. A short drive from Nairobi you can visit Karen Blixen's house or have afternoon tea with giraffes at Giraffe Manor.
