Welcome to Nairobi, Kenya’s vibrant capital—where modern Africa meets rich traditions, history, and culture. This full-day city tour offers a deep dive into Nairobi’s heritage, iconic landmarks, bustling markets, and a memorable culinary experience.

Your day begins with a comfortable hotel pick-up and a guided drive through the city in an air-conditioned vehicle. As you cruise down Moi Avenue, your guide will introduce you to Nairobi’s diverse architecture and history, including the Old Salvation Army Building, a relic of colonial-era Nairobi and a symbol of humanitarian legacy.

Next, head to the lively City Market, a colorful hub filled with hand-carved crafts, beaded jewelry, fresh produce, and aromatic spices. It’s the perfect stop to experience Nairobi’s local flavor and pick up a few souvenirs.

Nearby, admire two of Kenya’s most important institutions—the largest mosque in the country and the Kenya National Library, both central to Nairobi’s cultural and educational life.

Your next stop is the Kenya National Archives, located beside the Hilton Hotel. This small yet rich museum is home to an impressive collection of tribal artifacts, traditional art, historical photographs, and cultural displays—offering fascinating insight into Kenya’s diverse heritage.

The tour continues past key government buildings such as City Hall, the Law Courts, and the Mausoleum of Jomo Kenyatta, Kenya’s founding president. These landmarks tell the story of Kenya’s political journey from independence to present day.

A highlight of the day is a visit to the Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC). Take the elevator to the top floor and enjoy panoramic, 360-degree views of Nairobi. From this rooftop platform, spot Nairobi National Park on the horizon, and on a clear day, the distant Ngong Hills.

As lunchtime approaches, travel toward one of Nairobi’s most iconic dining spots—the Carnivore Restaurant. En route, pass the Nairobi National Museum and Snake Park, which you can visit another day. At Carnivore, indulge in a lavish buffet lunch featuring a variety of meats roasted over a massive charcoal pit, served on traditional Maasai swords. Known globally for its “Beast of a Feast,” this is a must for food lovers.

After lunch, you’ll be dropped back at your hotel, ending a day filled with culture, history, great food, and unforgettable views.
