For animal-loving travelers, it goes without saying that some of the highlights of your trips include meeting a new furry friend or having a face-to-face encounter with some amazing wildlife. Why not take your travels up a notch by visiting destinations where you can have more of aww-filled moments? Here are some perfect spots for your next trip:

Giraffe Manor

Nairobi, Kenya

This exclusive boutique hotel is one of the most iconic buildings in Nairobi. Aside from its extraordinary appeal, the most fascinating thing about this place is the resident herd of Rothschild giraffe who roam the property. The giraffes are nurtured within the 140 acres of indigenous forest. The long-legged animals are known to greet the hotel’s thrilled guests every morning as they pop their heads into the windows in search for treats.

The historic English country house is run as if there’s a house party with dinner served at a long table, followed by drinks by the fire overlooking verdant green gardens. Giraffe Manor only has 10 luxury en-suite rooms, each with their own distinct personality.
