“I went for the combo activity—Coffee Farm visit + Giraffe Centre Visit. The coffee farm visit is of course for coffee enthusiasts but I think everyone must at least once witness the life cycle of the products that come onto our table. I only recently turned into a coffee enthusiast and it was my first time at a coffee tasting, but it was an incredibly enriching experience. James, who gave us the tour gave us so much information and answered all our questions with patience and a smile. Feeding the giraffes at the giraffe centre was so fun.

Review of Kiambethu Tea Farm near Nairobi, with tea picking, forest walk, farm lunch, transport advice, costs, and booking tips.
“The Kiambethu Tea Farm is an absolutely stunning place and lunch was absolutely lovely. To see the tea plantations, local tea and biscuits in the garden, walk through the farm (the cows provide the cream and milk used in the ice cream) and woods, then a lovely lunch buffet.
