Giraffe Views | Giraffe Centre: Time really does fly when you’re doing something you love. Thought I was going to be at the Giraffe Centre for about an hour or so but ended up staying for almost 3 hrs. These animals are just so impressive to watch, I felt as if I were among giants. The neck of a giraffe on average is approximately 6 feet (1.8 meters) long and accounts for much of the animal’s hight along with their legs which also average 6 feet (1.8 meters) in length. These are considerably strong animals as well and though the animals here regularly interact with people it shouldn’t be forgotten that they are indeed wild animals. Just recently there was a cameraman that was killed in South Africa when he was head butted by a giraffe while taking some close up pictures. I also had a close call and was almost head butted here because I was focused on looking through the viewfinder of my camera and lost situational awareness of a giraffe that was next to me. Luckily there are considerable barriers between visitors and the giraffes so it might be difficult for the animals to get a lot of momentum when swinging it’s head and it probably helped that the giraffe that hit me had pretty poor aim and hit the lens of my camera and not my head.

Ole Sereni

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent service. The room was very nice. The view of the park was also a nice touch from the upstairs restaurant. "

Hemingways Nairobi

10/10 Excellent

"Hemingways was one of the nicest properties I’ve ever stayed at. All areas of the hotel were impeccable. Room was huge and well appointed. Staff were helpful, kind and able to accomplish anything we needed. We experienced Sunday jazz brunch, a cooking class, the spa, afternoon tea and private dining within their wine cellar. Each experience better than the next. It was difficult to have to leave to head home. Thank you hemingways for an excellent time. "
