Giraffe Centre Tour

The Giraffe Center, a beacon of conservation located in Nairobi, stands as a testament to the tireless efforts to protect the endangered Rothschild giraffe population. Initially established due to the alarming decline of Rothschild giraffes, plummeting to a mere 130 individuals in the wild due to detrimental agricultural practices, this center emerged as a vital sanctuary for these graceful creatures.

Through dedicated fundraising endeavors, the Giraffe Center successfully garnered resources to relocate four herds of Rothschild giraffes to strategic reserves including Lake Nakuru National Park, Nasalot Game Reserve, Mwea Game Reserve, and Ruma National Park. The impact of these initiatives has been remarkable, elevating the Rothschild giraffe population in Kenya to over 500 individuals. Visitors to the Giraffe Center are welcomed to witness this conservation triumph firsthand.

The heart of the Giraffe Center experience lies in the opportunity to observe these majestic animals up close, creating a memorable and intimate encounter. Visitors are not merely spectators; they actively engage with the giraffes, feeding them and fostering a deep connection with these extraordinary creatures.

In addition to its vital conservation role, the Giraffe Center serves as a hub for environmental education. It offers complimentary programs to young Kenyans, fostering awareness and understanding of wildlife and the importance of conservation. By promoting environmental consciousness and advocating for endangered species, the center plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of wildlife preservation in Kenya.

The Giraffe Center welcomes visitors daily, providing an immersive experience that not only educates but also inspires. A significant portion of the entrance fees contributes directly to supporting the center’s crucial initiatives, ensuring the ongoing protection of Rothschild giraffes and other endangered species.
