What you can expect
Leave the busy streets of Nairobi behind and discover one of Kenya's best-kept secrets—the breathtaking tea plantations of Tigoni.
Located in the cool highlands of Limuru, Tigoni is home to some of Kenya's oldest and most beautiful tea estates. With rolling green hills stretching as far as the eye can see, crisp mountain air, and rich agricultural heritage, this is the ultimate countryside escape.
Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup from your Nairobi accommodation before enjoying a scenic drive through Kenya's lush highlands.
Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed to a working tea estate where your guide introduces you to the fascinating story behind Kenya's world-renowned tea industry.
Take a leisurely walk through endless emerald tea fields while learning how tea is cultivated, harvested, and carefully nurtured throughout the year. Watch skilled tea pickers at work and even try picking tea yourself using the famous “two leaves and a bud” technique.
Continue your experience with an engaging tea processing demonstration, where you'll discover how freshly harvested leaves are transformed into premium black, green, and purple teas through traditional and modern production methods.
Then comes one of the highlights of the day—an authentic guided tea tasting. Sample a selection of freshly brewed Kenyan teas while learning to identify their unique aromas, flavors, and characteristics.
Afterwards, relax over a delicious farm-to-table lunch prepared using fresh local ingredients while overlooking spectacular tea plantations.
Before returning to Nairobi, take time to explore the beautiful gardens, enjoy the peaceful countryside, and capture unforgettable photos of Kenya's iconic tea landscapes.
Whether you're visiting Kenya for the first time or looking for a unique experience beyond wildlife safaris, this tour offers the perfect combination of nature, culture, history, and exceptional hospitality.
