Giraffe Centre, Nairobi

Seeing the giraffes up close and getting to feed them is a very special experience. However, keep in mind that it gets very crowded with other spectators and tour groups. I was here on a weekday around midday and it was very crowded but the giraffes rotated between the feeding platforms and the trees in back. Overall its a cute, albeit fast experience. There are informative plaques and videos around as well as a gift shop. There are also many hand washing stations around. They do give you a small portion of pellets to feed the giraffes and once you're done, you can hang about or exit at your convenience. Overall a cute experience if you're in the area or if its included in your tour package.

One of the most unforgettable experiences I had in Nairobi. Getting so close to the giraffes in such a beautiful and peaceful setting was truly amazing. The staff were welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about wildlife conservation. The facility is clean, well-organized, and provides a fantastic experience for visitors of all ages. It’s the perfect place to create unforgettable memories and take incredible photos. I highly recommend visiting Giraffe Centre—it’s an absolute must-see when you’re in Nairobi!

Amazing little centre in Nairobi! This is a chance to get up close with and feed endangered Rothschild giraffes. It is quite small (there are some short clips to watch + some information boards), but the actual feeding time is quite short as the giraffes will eat all of your food in a matter of minutes. Still, it’s an incredible experience!! You can extend your time there by going on a little walk across the street in the nature trail. Besides giraffes, they also have warthogs.

Very cute experience. We got there by taxi, waited only a little bit to get the tickets, like two minutes. Then we got to wash our hands and received a giraffe food :D There are some tvs and posters explaining the cause of this center and some about giraffes and Kenyan wildlife. After that you get to go super near those giraffes to feed them. They are so adorable and not shy at all. Their tongues are pretty rough. You’ll get to feed them the whole bowl one by one piece and you can choose any giraffe you want. You are not allowed to pet them and it can be pretty crowded. But I think it is worth the money, because how cool is to be this close to such beautiful and large animals? I think you can spend there as much time as you want, but you’ll only get one small bowl of food for them. After that you can visit a souvenir shop and else. The whole place is very well designed and looks pretty.
