Description:

Visit a giraffe breeding and conservation program and learn about one of the rarest breeds, the endangered Rothschild's giraffe. Stroll through the former home of Karen Blixen, the illustrious author of the prominent novel Out of Africa, used in the filming of the Oscar-winning movie.

Begin your half-day tour with a trip to the Giraffe Center in Nairobi. Admire the valuable work the non-profit organization is attempting to stabilize the rare Rothschild's giraffe population. Learn how over 50 of the striking creatures have been released into the wild, and see the young calves currently residing in the 120-acre (49 ha) site.

Continue to the Karen Blixen Museum, former home of the Danish novelist and author of Out of Africa. The building still houses many of the original furnishings and some newer pieces donated by the makers of the celebrated film. The museum adds further context to the movie, providing a fascinating glimpse into East African colonial life in the dying years of the British Empire.
