Luxury Nairobi Holidays

As Kenya's capital and the gateway to East Africa, Nairobi is a cosmopolitan city where authentic cultures, sophisticated dining and a mesmerising energy come together. Ideal for an injection of African urban spirit before and after safari adventures, there is plenty to explore in Nairobi.

For Out of Africa fans, a visit to the Karen Blixen Museum is a must, while wildlife rehabilitation projects such as the world renowned Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant orphanage and the Africa Fund for Endangered Wildlife Giraffe Centre give incredible insights into Kenya's wildlife. The city also offers wondrous views of the Ngong Hills, and access to Nairobi National Park in less than an hour.

Nairobi's modern skyline often comes as a surprise to visitors whose more romantic view of the city conjures up the bygone days of Ernest Hemingway and Teddy Roosevelt. But amongst the modern office and residential towers and large shopping centres it is still possible to glimpse historical architecture which calls to mind the elegant lifestyle of the city's early settlers.
