Giraffe Manor.

By Alex in Travel on Feb 27, 2006 at 2:03 am

Giraffe Manor was built in 1932 by Sir David Duncan, just a few miles outside of Nairobi, Kenya.

It is now a lodging, a very unique lodging:

Exclusive, spacious and elegant, it is the only place in the world that you can feed giraffe from your second floor bedroom window, over the lunch table, and at the front door. Guests can feed and photograph the giraffe and the Warthogs at the Manor, and also wander through the adjoining primeval forest to view the bushbuck, dik dik, and more than 180 species of birds.

I have no idea what bushbuck and dik dik are…

    A bushbuck and a dik dik are little African deer. They look just like a deer, but they are smaller. Very lovely to see. Also, I like to say that I enjoy your website, thank you for making it.
