FARM TOUR @ KIAMBETHU

Kiambethu Tea Farm Homestay is situated at 7200 feet in a truly magnificent garden with views of the spectacular Mount Kilimanjaro and the Ngong hills. Kiambethu is a farmhouse to four generations of the first family to plant and make tea in Kenya.

Kiambethu Tea Farm Cottages are located just 40 Minutes from the heart of Nairobi in Limuru and provides a tranquil insight in the life of a settler farm. A visit or a stay at Kiambethu Tea Farm makes a memorable time and it includes delicious meals, a visit to the indigenous forest, insights to the making and growing of tea provided by the hosts.

Arrive at about  11am and over a cup of tea or coffee the history of the farm and process of making tea is informally explained to the guests, followed by an opportunity to see tea in the field. 

Then take a walk in the indigenous forest with our resident Kenyan guide who will identify the plants and explain how they are traditionally used. Look out for the Colobus monkeys close up and wander in the gardens which are home to a wide variety of birds and flowers.

Return to the house to enjoy a pre-lunch drink on the verandah with sweeping views across the tea fields to the Ngong Hills.

Lunch is served about 1pm and is a three course buffet lunch from our set menu prepared with vegetables from the garden and desserts are topped with cream from our herd of Channel Island cows.
