Lion Valley

The last strictly tourist attraction on my way, local national park. Living Nairobi without seeing it would be a shame and having a well established network of tour guides, it was very easy to organize it last minute. And I don't regret any minute spent there! Not only I could finally see rhinos ( 12 of them), but also experience lions, zebras, ostriches, giraffes and jakals as close as I never had. On top of that, it wasn't really crowded, compared to Massai Mara, we could almost always find places without any cars. As you can see on the lion picture, the city was always in the background, with its skyscrapers and motorways. Definitely a very special place. One sad moment at the end, the ivory burning place, where all the confiscated ivory and rhino horns are being burned as a statement of African governments against hunting and killing elephants and rhinos. The single pile of dust is a result of slaughtering 20 elephants :(Les mer
