Experience Nairobi Like a Local: Tips and Insights

When I have friends in town…an early morning game drive in Nairobi National Park, watching giraffes, zebras, and rhinos silhouetted against skyscrapers, is definitely top of the itinerary. Moreover, I enjoy taking them on a little tour of Karen, including the adorable elephant orphanage at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and a stop at the Giraffe Centre. A hearty lunch at Talisman is a must, followed by an attempt to walk it off in the tranquil Karura Forest. If you’re seeking a glimpse of Nairobi’s nightlife, I’d usually take friends toJ’s Fresh Bar and Kitchenfor some live music (every Thursday) or, if the timing is right, to theWasp & Sproutfor an entertaining pub quiz.
