Fun Things To Do In Nairobi, Kenya

If you're visiting Nairobi but unsure where to start or what to do in this vibrant city, you've come to the right place: here are fun things to do in Nairobi.

Visit Nairobi National Park.
Nairobi National Park is one of the best places to see animals. The park has over 500 species of birds and over 200 species of mammals, including giraffes, rhinos, hippos, and zebras! If you want to join one at night, then go on an evening game drive where you will be able to see nocturnal animals such as hyenas or jackals hunting for food in the dark!

Dance to live music and drink Kenyan beer at Carnivore.
Carnivore, a bar-cum-restaurant located in the heart of Nairobi, is a great place to enjoy live music while you dance and drink. Carnivore has an excellent atmosphere and is worth checking out if you want to hang out with friends or meet new people. The food is fantastic as well—their rump steak is delicious! There's also an extensive selection of Kenyan beers available for purchase at Carnivore.

Visit Karura Forest
You should make it a point to visit Karura Forest for many reasons. It is one of the most extensive remaining indigenous forests globally and offers eco-friendly opportunities to escape the city. Karura Forest is home to over 400 species of birds and features a 15- meter waterfall. The forest is also home to several archaeological sites dating back to the early 19th century and an abandoned stone quarry pond, one of the most popular attractions. There are many more things to discover in Karura, and you can spend hours exploring the forest on foot!.

Hang out with elephants at Sheldrick Wildlife Trust.
Let's start with the elephants. African elephants are some of the most intelligent animals on Earth. They have a great sense of smell and are incredibly social; they live with their families for their entire lives (usually around 70 years). Elephants are also the largest land mammal, with an average height of 13 feet and weighing more than 6 tons. Their trunks serve as their nose, mouth, and upper lip—making it possible to eat over 50 pounds of food at once!
To get up close with these fantastic creatures, head to Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, where you can watch them paint or interact with visitors through touch tanks or feeding sessions in Nairobi National Park - make sure you stay safe by following all the park rules (don't cross barriers when visiting elephants).
