Overview
What sets the Kiambethu Tea Farm tour apart is its unique blend of history, nature, and hospitality in a tranquil highland setting. It’s not just a visit to a tea plantation—it’s an immersive experience on one of Kenya’s oldest tea farms, still run by the McDonell family who pioneered commercial tea growing in the country. The tour offers a warm, personal touch, with engaging storytelling, a guided walk through a freshly prepared three-course lunch using ingredients from the farm. The peaceful surroundings, panoramic views of the Ngong Hills, and the chance to sip tea right where it's grown make it a serene and memorable escape from Nairobi’s bustle.
