Is a holiday rental in Nairobi worth it?

A holiday apartment in Nairobi offers you the perfect combination of independence and comfort. Enjoy Impressive nature, Family-friendly environment and experience Nairobi like a local – with your own retreat after an action-packed day.

Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, is the only major city in the world that has a real national park within its city limits: In Nairobi National Park, giraffes, zebras, and rhinos graze against the backdrop of modern skyscrapers — a surreal image that perfectly symbolizes Nairobi's unique position between wilderness and urbanity.

The David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage in Nairobi National Park rescues orphaned baby elephants and offers daily public feedings, where the playful youngsters frolic in the mud — a heartwarming experience. The Giraffe Centre in Langata allows close encounters with the endangered Rothschild giraffes, which can be fed and even kissed at eye level. The Karen Blixen Museum in the former farmhouse of the Out of Africa author takes you back to the colonial era.

Nairobi is the economic and creative heart of East Africa: The Maasai Market offers artisanal treasures, and the Kazuri Bead Factory produces handcrafted ceramic jewelry. The Westlands neighborhood pulses with restaurants that modernize East African cuisine — Nyama Choma (grilled meat) and Ugali are must-try dishes. Nairobi is the ideal starting point for safaris to the Maasai Mara and Amboseli National Park. June to October offers the best safari season.
