David Sheldrick Orphanage tour

You can visit between 11am and 12 noon every day, and see the elephants being fed and playing. In addition, there is a keeper who will give a talk about the elephants, where they came from, how they are getting on, and how some of the previous orphans are progressing. You can get really close to the elephants. The orphanage also takes in rhinos and so if you are lucky you will get the chance to see a young rhino.

Important Update: The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has mandated that Nairobi National Park gate entry fees must be paid by all those visiting the SWT Nairobi Nursery. It is important to note this is separate to our Nursery entry donation, which still needs to be paid to us on the day of your visit. We encourage you to review the information below about these new fees and to arrive early on the date of your booked visit. We cannot delay the start of the public visit, or extend it for late arrivals.

This standard David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage tour involves a morning pickup from your hotel around 9:30 AM, arrival at the orphanage by 10:30 AM, and participation in the public visiting hour from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. During this time, you’ll watch baby elephants have their midday milk feed and mud bath, interact with them along a rope line, and learn from keepers about their rescue and rehabilitation stories.
