Giraffe Centre is a famous wildlife conservation and education facility located in Lang’ata, near Nairobi, Kenya. Established to protect the endangered Rothschild’s giraffe, it has become one of Nairobi’s most unique and rewarding attractions for both visitors and locals.
The centre’s main highlight is the elevated feeding platform, where you can stand eye‑to‑eye with graceful giraffes and offer them specially prepared pellets. This close interaction is safe, unforgettable, and a rare opportunity to learn about giraffe behavior and ecology up close.
Beyond giraffe feeding, the centre offers a 1.5 km nature trail through the Gogo River Sanctuary, perfect for birdwatching and spotting smaller wildlife like warthogs and dik‑diks. There are also educational exhibits, guided talks on conservation, a cozy tea house, and a souvenir shop selling locally made crafts and books.
