With its open grass planes and a magnificent backdrop of the city scrappers, Nairobi National Park is the world’s only wildlife capital. It is home to buffalos, giraffes, lions, leopards, baboons, zebras, wildebeests, endangered black rhinos, cheetahs, and migratory and endemic birds.
If you wish to visit the park, it is advisable that you do so at 6 am so as to get a glimpse of various animals in their natural habitat. However, getting to the park at 6 am if you live far from Nairobi can be problematic, so you should consider checking into one of the hotels near the park.
