Stop At: David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Mbagathi Road Kws Workshop Entrance - Nairobi National Park, Nairobi 00503 Kenya

The Orphanage supports orphaned baby elephants that have lost their mothers to poaching, death, injuries, or getting lost in the wild or other tragedies. Besides feeding,washing and walking the babies, Daphne and her dedicated staff of keepers provide emotional support to the orphans as they raise them to be released back into the wild when they are ready. It is worth a visit to the park to see the young elephants interacting with their keepers – playing, taking mud baths and being fed with milk. This is a rare sight to watch and a most memorable way to get up close to the babies and observe their playful habits, something which is not possible or even safe during your afari in the wild. The ideal visiting hours is between 1100hrs - 1200hrs when baby elephants and rhinos are being fed.
