Overview

During the tour, I will take you to the tallest building in Nairobi, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the city from above. From this vantage point, you’ll also see the statue of Kenya’s first president. Depending on the time of day, this stop offers a beautiful opportunity to experience either sunrise or sunset over Nairobi.

We will visit the site of the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombing and discuss its historical significance.

Along the way, we will explore and discuss the many monuments that have played an important role in the history of Nairobi and Kenya as a nation.

Afterward, we will head to the Maasai Market, where you can shop for authentic African handicrafts, souvenirs, curios, and more. I will assist you throughout to ensure you get quality items at local prices.

Once the tour is complete, I will recommend a good restaurant, and I will also help arrange an Uber to take you back to your hotel safely and conveniently.
