7. Have your breakfast with giraffes at Manor House, Nairobi
Manor House is one of Nairobi’s most iconic buildings and Giraffe Manor has an extraordinary appeal that goes back to the 1930s when European visitors first flocked to East Africa to enjoy safaris. However, the most fascinating thing about Giraffe Manor is its herd of resident Rothschild giraffe who visit morning and evening, poking their long necks into the windows in the hope of a treat, before retreating to their forest sanctuary.
