Giraffe Center
At the Giraffe Centre, guests can photograph and feed the giraffe. The Giraffe Centre is located on the grounds of the well-known Giraffe Manor, built in 1932 by Sir David Duncan. The Giraffe Centre is situated on 120 acres of land just a few miles from the centre of Nairobi, Kenya's capital city. In 1974 Jock Leslie-Melville, grandson of a Scottish earl, and his wife Betty, who also founded the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife (AFEW), bought the land and Manor. They then moved five babies of the highly endangered Rothschild giraffe to their property where they have been successfully reared and they now have their own babies.
