Are you planning to spend some time in Nairobi? Well, there are many places you can visit to quench your thirst in Nairobi. The following are the places you can visit at an affordable price.

Nairobi National Park

Nairobi National Park is the only park in the world that borders a city. You can enjoy magnificent game drives at the backdrop of a city skyline. An affordable game drive can take about 6 hours from Nairobi Central Business District. The park is located about 14km from the CBD. Therefore, you don't have to travel a lot from your hotel accommodation. 

The Giraffe Manor

This is a high-end restaurant in Nairobi where you literally dine with wild animals. In this place, you can literally feed with giraffes. As put by CNN's Richard Quest in Quest's World of Wonder 2018, the place is Wonderful, weird, or both. Therefore, it is a place worth visiting and enjoying your day. Since the hotel is on the periphery of the Nairobi National Park, you can stay here and go on an amazing safari early morning and get to see the big cats and other animals.

Karura Forest

Just like Amazon is considered the "Lungs of the world," Karura forest perhaps is the Lungs of Nairobi. The forest found in the northern parts of the city measures over 1041 hectares. The size makes it one of the largest gazetted urban forests in the world. The forest is managed by the Kenya Forest Services (KFS). The Karura Forest has over 605 species of wildlife native to Nairobi. It is good for bike riding, nature walks when you want to relax and on a good day, you can come by antelopes grazing.

The Nairobi National Park, Giraffe Manor, and Karura Forest are the natural sites you can visit within Nairobi. Therefore, if you are staying in an accommodation with Nairobi City, you can easily enjoy this ride. You can book a trip to this destination easily at Weekendie
