The DSWT is a centre for orphaned baby elephants located in Karen. Orphans rescued from Kenya’s national parks are brought to Nairobi to be cared for until they’re old enough to be released into the wild. You can visit at 11 am every day and watch them running down from the forest for their bottle feed, which kids—and adults!—always love. Take a hat, sunscreen, and water because you and the family will be standing in the sunshine for about an hour listening to the talks and watching the baby elephants play and be fed. If you sponsor an elephant, you can visit in the evening and see the babies being put to bed.

The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust is a world-famous conservancy started for elephants but now extending to other baby orphans. Started by the tenacious Dame Daphne Sheldrick and her family, with love for Kenya and it's natural heritage of wildlife, it is one of the world's most successful animal orphan-rescue programmes. Be prepared to fall in love with the adorable calves and don't be surprised if you end up adopting one (or more) on the spot. Enjoy the fact that there's no discrimination against other animals, so besides elephants, you may just get to frolic with a giraffe, rhino, or warthog. Since you will be able to get very up close, this is an experience not to miss, especially for children and animal-lovers. Open visiting time is just one hour daily from 11am-12noon, with private viewing from 5pm-6pm, but by prior booking only. Contact them early to book/enquire as space can be limited. It's conveniently located within the neighbourhood, about 10km away, or a 20-40 min drive from here. Simply leave in good time to beat traffic and the crowds, and see how all that planning will be well worth it.

Here you'll meet gorgeous baby elephant calves, sadly orphanned by poaching. A great opportunity to be close to these magnificent animals as they enjoy playing in the mud bath and having their mid-morning snack (milk). To enjoy the best view, and even touch the elephants, get there as early as you can - the Orphanage is open for one hour only each day (11am to 12noon).

Get to meet and greet the baby elephants and rhinos that have been affected by the poaching that kills their parents for tusks. This place is an orphanage that cares for them until they are able to fend for themselves and are introduced back to the wild. They can only be viewed from 10-12pm each day. One can also adopt a baby elephant for a certain fee per year and get unlimited visitation.
