Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage: This viewing is an educational visit. All the orphans are at the Nairobi Nursery for the first three years and then they are translocated to one of the Reintegration Units in Tsavo National Park, where they start to be reintroduced to the wild. This visit is an introduction to these orphans and the work that is done by the Daphne Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Each of the orphans come down to the mud bath, they have their milk and then they settle down at the water hole or at their greens. Feeding the orphans is not permitted as only the Keepers are allowed to do so. Should the orphans approach the cordoned off area, visitors are able to interact with them to a limited degree. On warmer days, the orphans can be quite playful, they are allowed to do what they please as they all have their own temperaments. Some days they aren’t as playful as others. There is enough space for visitors to practice social distancing during this visit.
Following your day of exploration, you will be transferred back the hotel. Enjoy the remainder of your evening at leisure.
