The Giraffe Center is on Gogo Falls Road about 1 km from the Langata shopping center. Adult and young giraffes can be fed by visitors and it’s an excellent opportunity to have a closer look of these beautiful animals. Admission is KSh 250, 70 for children.

The giraffes are kept behind a fence in a large field, but there is a feeding building where you can stand on the balcony and they come right up to you. The gift shop is nice as well. Expect to spend 1 - 2 hours at the center.
