GIRRAFFE CENTRE ENTRANCE FEES AND INFORMATION

2 min read

The African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Giraffe Centre - locally referred to as The Giraffe Centre - plays a pivotal role in conserving the critically endangered Rothschild giraffe. Located 12 kilometers from Nairobi's city center, the Giraffe Centre offers visitors the opportunity to get up close and personal with these friendly giants

The Giraffe Centre in Nairobi is an amazing place to visit. It started as a rehabilitation project to rescue the Rothschild Giraffe. There were only 120 giraffes left in a ranch in Western Kenya when the Giraffe Center was founded. The actual non profit organization is called the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Kenya (AFEW). The original house of the founders has been converted into a very impressive boutique hotel called the Giraffe Manor.   

Things To Do At The Giraffe Center

At the Giraffe Center you are able to site on top of a platform and stand eye to eye with the Giraffes.  You are given small pellets to feed the Giraffes and there are unlimited refills.  Across from the Giraffe Center is a small nature walk that features two other giraffes and a variety of unique plants and birds.  This is where I was attacked by a Giraffe so make sure that you stay a small distance away from them.
