I always enjoy when I can find time to visit the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and visit the resident orphaned animals. The animals are magnificent, but surely the keepers are outstanding - dedicating their lives to saving these orphans - if I could manage it I would give all of them an award.

I am sure everyone says the same but you CANNOT miss out on this. If you do one thing in Nairobi, this is it.

Great place with a very noble drive behind it. The elephants are totally adorable! :) More

This is the home to around 30 baby elephants that have been abandoned for various reasons. They are fed and nutured before being introduced back into the wild. Our visit took in feeding time and it is amazing to watch these elephants feed themselves with a greatly enlarged version of a baby feeding bottle. Guides give a history outlining the... More
