We begin by picking you up from your hotel/apartment or home within Nairobi then drive to the Karen Blixen museum house where the coffee farmer/settler and author of Out of Africa lived from 1914 to 1931. The Museum house remains a serene environment that seems to belong to the past, surrounded by a tranquil garden and indigenous forest, with a splendid view of Karen’s beloved Ngong Hills. She honours the hills with the phrase ‘I had a farm in Africa at the foot of the Ngong Hills’. Farm tools including a tractor from that period, wagons, ploughs, and original coffee processing factory equipment form part of this rich collection, as outdoor exhibits.
A well-maintained luscious green gardens offer the best setting for all outdoor events including weddings and wedding receptions, corporate galas, and team building. In line with Karen’s passion for art, we support local and upcoming artists at the Karen’s Art Corner. Guided tours are offered continuously throughout the day by our well-trained multilingual guides.
After Blixen, our guide will drive to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust which happens only one hour per day from 11.00 am to 12.00 noon every day. We shall have a lunch break after the elephant orphanage at a local restaurant or tourist hotel within (your choice).
Later on, you visit the Giraffe Centre which is about 15 minutes from the elephant orphanage. After the Giraffe Centre, you have an option of visiting Kazuri or Kobe beads factory. After the tour, our guide will drop you at your hotel or place of your choice within Nairobi.
There is also an option of visiting Nairobi National Park among other options.
