Wondering about some of the top outdoor fun activities to do in Nairobi? Here’s Nairobi National Park, one of the  top  unique places in Africa. The Nairobi  National park  is the only wildlife sanctuary  in a capital city in the entire world thus it automatically falls in the bucket list of  the  best places to visit in Africa. Located approximately 7.2km from “the town of cool waters” (a close Maasai translation of the words Enkare Nairobi), the park boasts of bountiful plant and animal species as well as breathtaking landscape and scenery. As a matter of fact, guest who manage to visit Kenya  have always considered the  Nairobi National Pak one of the top 10 places to visit in Nairobi.

Once inside the park, one can enjoy an adventurous game drive as they look out for a diverse animal population, including the Big Five. The Nairobi national park hosts more than 400 bird species, diverse species of  giraffes, hippopotamuses, spotted hyenas, blue wildebeests, plains zebras, cheetahs, Thomson’s gazelles, Grant’s gazelles, common elands, a variety of primates, the Nile crocodile, just but to name a few, in their natural environment.

Visitors to the park at the onset of the dry season get the rare privilege of watching a mini “Great Migration” of sorts as Zebras, wildebeests, and other herbivores cross over from the other side of the Mbagathi River onto the greener pastures of the park.

For those constrained by time and in too much of a hurry to traverse the park landscape, the Nairobi Safari Walk is a perfect alternative to view most of the animal species in the safety and comfort of a raised artificial walkway with an experienced tour guide.
