About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, Nairobi National Park, Nairobi Kenya
You will arrive at this world-famous animal refuge in time for the daily feeding at 11:00 am. Imagine the sight of dozens of baby elephants running to their handlers and latching on to giant baby bottles! It’s a scene of unforgettable cuteness.
After the babies have had their fill of formula, it’s bath time. Just feet from you, the tiny elephants roll in the mud, playing and spraying each other.
This very special place is a haven for orphaned elephants from Kenya and other countries. Rescued after their mothers or families died from drought, accident or were poached for their ivory, these babies finally have a safe home.
The orphanage is the most successful sanctuary of its kind in the world and has saved over 200 baby elephants as well as young rhinos. Coddled and raised with love, 100 of the young charges have been released back into the wild to date.
A visit here might just be the highlight of your African Holiday. It will certainly be an adventure you’ll long remember.
