Activity itinerary

Day 1: Helping at a Soup Kitchen
  • 1 stop
  • Meals: lunch, snacks
  • Accommodation: Le Maison Royale Nairobi - 4 stars
Kiambu
  • 7h
Getting involved in helping disadvantaged communities is both an opportunity to engage with local people and a rewarding way for travellers to contribute to alleviating the problems of poverty in Kenya. Today you visit a children’s centre on the outskirts of Nairobi supported by One Horizon, which provides the kids with their only regular meal each day. You lend a hand by helping to prepare and distribute nutritious food, and in return will receive beautiful, happy smiles and witness first-hand how communities work together to help the hungry and most vulnerable.
Day 2: Visiting a Women's Centre - New Skills and Bright Futures
  • 1 stop
  • Meals: breakfast, lunch
  • Accommodation: Le Maison Royale Nairobi - 4 stars
Ngong Hills
  • 7h
Today you visit the Women's Empowerment Centre, another project supported by One Horizon, where local women undertake an 18-month programme that teaches them trade and entrepreneurial skills so they can set up their own business to support their families. Spend an inspirational day with these proud, self-sufficient women and gain a better understanding of how they have been able to overcome difficult challenges and transform into independent business owners and leaders. An amazing cultural tour in Kenya
Day 3: The Hippos of Lake Naivasha
  • 1 stop
  • Meals: breakfast, lunch, snacks
  • Accommodation: Le Maison Royale Nairobi
Lake Naivasha
  • 7h
Today drive west of Nairobi to Lake Naivasha, Kenya's most beautiful freshwater lake surrounded by peaceful grassy banks and fringed by thick papyrus. Along the way, stop at a roadside lookout for the stunning views over Kenya’s Great Rift Valley, and arrive at a lovely lakeside lodge in huge grounds studded with acacia trees and perhaps spot the odd antelope or vervet monkey. Catch a small boat to view the pods of hippos and abundant birdlife that Naivasha is so famous for, then back at the lodge enjoy a delicious leisurely lunch and relaxing swim in the pool before returning to Nairobi in the late afternoon.
Day 4: Grannies Going Forward with Their Pigs
  • 1 stop
  • Meals: breakfast, lunch
  • Accommodation: Le Maison Royale - 4 stars
Kikuyu
  • 7h
Today you will visit ar local community to meet some of the entrepreneurial Kenyan grandmothers who play a vital role in keeping Kenyan families together. Discover how pig-husbandry provides food and financial support and the bio-gas system creates energy out of the waste to power a home. This is another worthwhile project that One Horizon supports, and the initiative aims to empower grandmothers through small-scale farming. Sit with them over a cup of local tea and enjoy some joyful singing and dancing and listen to their powerful stories about resilience. A cultural tour like no other

Venture into the bush with her son, who will explain what it’s like being a young warrior in Maasai society, sit with the elders as they share their stories of their fascinating culture, and learn from the women how to make some traditional decorative beaded jewellery.
