What to expect
Giraffe Centre
This stop focuses on the "Up-Close Giraffe Encounter" that the Giraffe Centre is known for. You spend time observing and interacting with the resident giraffes in a controlled setting.
Features
- Experience the up-close giraffe encounter, watching these animals at eye level from designated viewing areas and walkways. This is where you see the giraffes' size, movement, and expressions from a close vantage point.
- Entry to Giraffe Centre is included as part of your booking, so you move directly to the viewing spaces and can focus on the encounter instead of ticketing logistics.

Karen Blixen Museum
Your second major stop is the Karen Blixen Museum, also known as "Mbogani House," where the "Step Into History at 'Mbogani House'" and "Cinematic Magic" highlights come together. This is the former home linked to the story behind "Out of Africa."
Features
- Walk through the rooms and grounds of "Mbogani House," where you step into history at 'Mbogani House' and connect the physical setting with the narratives that made it well known.
- Learn how the property ties into "Cinematic Magic," with your guide pointing out spaces associated with the story that later inspired film audiences.
