When you think of a safari in Africa, the mind often drifts to open savannahs, roaming elephants, and golden sunsets. But before you even set foot in the wild, your adventure begins in the vibrant city of Nairobi, the beating heart of Kenya.

Whether you’re flying in for a Great Migration experience or planning a full circuit through East Africa, Nairobi is more than just a transit hub—it’s the perfect pre-safari destination filled with rich culture, wildlife, and charm.

Why Start Your Safari in Nairobi?

• Accessibility & Comfort
  Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport is one of the busiest and best-connected in East Africa. Most international safari-goers land here first, making it a convenient and logical starting point for any safari through Kenya or broader Africa.

• A Taste of the Wild, in the City
  Where else in the world can you spot giraffes and rhinos just minutes from a city skyline? Nairobi National Park, just outside the city center, offers a rare chance to kick off your safari without even leaving town.

• Cultural Touchpoints
  Explore the Karen Blixen Museum, shop local at the Maasai Market, or learn about conservation at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, where rescued baby elephants steal hearts daily.

From Nairobi to the Wild

Once you're refreshed and ready, Nairobi becomes your launchpad into the wild corners of Kenya:

• Fly to the Masai Mara for thrilling game drives and the Great Migration.
• Journey north to Laikipia for exclusive conservancy experiences.
• Head east to Amboseli to see elephants roam beneath the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro.
