Few things could be more magical than sharing breakfast or afternoon tea with the world’s tallest animal, and The Safari Collection offers just that with a stay at Giraffe Manor in Kenya. A boutique hotel set in 12 acres of private land within 140 acres of indigenous forest in Nairobi – and known as one of the most Instagrammed properties in the world – this historic manor is home to a herd of Rothschild giraffes who pay daily visits to the residents, poking their long necks into the breakfast room or through bedroom windows in search of a treat or two.
The perfect starting point for a family safari adventure, choose the Karen Blixen Suite for a true Out of Africa moment, before venturing out to meet some of the city’s resident wildlife. At the adjoining Giraffe Centre, animal lovers can feed the giraffes, meet rescued baby elephants at the world-famous Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, horse ride at Malo stables or visit Nairobi National Park for an afternoon spotting lions, leopards and zebras.
