DAY 1 - 2
THE NAIROBI NURSERY During your stay in Nairobi at Hemingways, a beautiful hotel in Karen, you will have VIP access to the Nairobi Nursery outside of public visiting hours including an intimate experience with the elephant orphans whilst they are out browsing within the forests of Nairobi National Park, as well as encountering the DSWT’s resident orphaned black rhinos.
