In the morning, fly from Zanzibar directly to Nairobi Wilson Airport, where a driver will take you to Giraffe Manor for the night.

Included:

  • Flight from Zanzibar
  • Transfer from Nairobi Wilson to Giraffe Manor
  • 1 night at Giraffe Manor – Arlene – Superior

January 6, 2026: Departure

I advise booking a day room because flights out of Nairobi usually depart around midnight. I have been having an issue booking a day room at Giraffe Manor, so that is not included in the cost. One option to consider is visiting the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and then staying at an airport hotel until your flight.
