Sun's up over the plains. Here's what deserves your evening.
The Great Repair
A long-running group show about fixing what's broken: objects, cities, us.
Sunrise Game Drive, Nairobi National Park
Lions before breakfast, 30 minutes from your bed. We arrange private drives and park transfers, so ask the front desk.
Giraffe Centre Visit
Eye to eye with a Rothschild giraffe, ten minutes from the hotel. The classic Karen morning.
Karura Forest Trails
50km of running, riding and walking trails plus a waterfall. Nairobi's green lung.
KSPCA Charity Market
Plants, preloved finds and very good dogs, five minutes from the hotel, all for the animals.
The full, filterable list, with everything coming up, lives on Twende!, our what's-on hub, and the weekend digest on Nairobi This Weekend.
Make a weekend of it.
Karen puts you ten minutes from giraffes, twenty from the racecourse, thirty from Westlands, and a world away when you want quiet. Rooms at Karen Plains Hotel from the team that wrote this guide.
