A little "tame", but O.K. for a short safari during a business trip.

Nice if you a few spare hours in Nairobi, but that's all.

Very good place to take good wildlife pictures, the animals are usually tamed and you can approach them very easily. This is the only reason you should visit Nairobi National park

It's OK and easily accessible, but proximity to Nairobi means that it can be busy. We have visited several times, but never when the animals are really plentiful; so this view might be jaundiced.

A bush experience on the borders of a bustling city
The park is home to Kenya Wildlife Service’s headquarters; as a result the game is very well protected and Nairobi National Park has become something of sanctuary to rhinos, and there is a population of around 60. The park is mostly open grasslands, and you’re almost guaranteed of seeing hartebeest, zebra and giraffe. There is a healthy population of lions too, and one evening we watched a pride of about 15 – including many cubs – laze about as the sun set.
There are now two lodges within the park: The Emakoko, a very comfortable lodge set in small valley, with suites that look out through fever trees, and Nairobi Tented Camp, which is set in a beautiful forested ravine. If you’re travelling to Kenya for
