Nairobi began as the railroad depot of East Africa in 1899. Since then, it’s become one of the major cities of modern Africa. It’s a vibrant, growing city, a mosaic of many races and cultures, but it still retains its charm, with wide jacaranda tree-lined avenues and colorful markets.
One of Nairobi's standout features is its unique array of attractions and experiences. A must-visit is the Nairobi National Park, located just outside the city center. It is the only national park in the world bordering a capital city, allowing you to witness magnificent wildlife such as lions, giraffes, zebras, and rhinos against a city skyline backdrop.

What to Do in Nairobi, Kenya
For those with a penchant for cultural and historical exploration, Nairobi offers numerous highlights. The Nairobi National Museum is a repository of Kenyan art, history, and culture, featuring fascinating exhibitions and collections. The Karen Blixen Museum, dedicated to the famous author of "Out of Africa," provides insights into colonial-era life and the inspiration behind her renowned work.
Nairobi's natural beauty extends beyond its urban attractions. The city serves as a gateway to the iconic Maasai Mara National Reserve, where you can witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration. Additionally, Nairobi is surrounded by picturesque landscapes, including the scenic Rift Valley and the majestic Mount Kenya.
Think of Nairobi as your entry point to Kenya, or even Africa, as you ease yourself into a classic safari experience, especially staying at top spots like the Giraffe Manor or Hemingway’s before moving deeper into the savanna.
