Kenyan Coffee & Tea Farm Day Tours: From Bean to Brew & Leaf to Sip
Hours: Approx. 7-8 Hours (Full-Day Immersive Experiences)
SUMMARY OF THE COFFEE & TEA FARM DAY TOURS
Discover a different side of Kenya with our immersive coffee and tea farm tours. Experience the journey of Kenya’s famous black gold, coffee, or take a tranquil walk through tea plantations. These day trips offer insight into the agricultural processes that fuel the Kenyan economy while providing a serene escape into the countryside.
Choose between two immersive day trips from Nairobi: the coffee farm experience, where you’ll learn the intricate journey of coffee from bean to brew, or the tea farm tour, offering insights into tea production with a serene walk through tea fields and indigenous forests. Both tours provide a perfect escape from the city, complete with delicious meals and picturesque views.
Kenyan Coffee Experience: From Bean to Brew
Morning Departure & Coffee Tour Begins: Depart from Nairobi around 9:00 AM, taking a scenic 45-minute drive to a vast coffee estate. Enjoy picturesque landscapes stretching as far as the eye can see as you leave the bustle of the city behind.
Introduction & Coffee Tasting: Upon arrival at the coffee farm around 10:00 AM, you will be warmly welcomed and given a short introduction to the coffee-making process. Afterward, head to the farm’s beautiful gardens for a coffee tasting experience where you will savour Kenya’s finest brews.
Farm Tour: From Seed to Cup: Continue with a guided tour around the farm, exploring the various stages of coffee production. You will witness how coffee transforms from a young seedling to the parchment grading process, and finally to the drying of coffee beans. This comprehensive walk through the estate will give you a true understanding of Kenya’s coffee heritage.
Three-Course Lunch at the 1928 Ballroom: Around 12:30 PM, indulge in a delightful buffet-style three-course lunch served at the historic 1928 ballroom. Relax and enjoy a drink as you soak in the charming atmosphere.
Shopping for Local Delights: After lunch, explore a selection of local products on the farm, including freshly ground coffee, jam, honey, and even coffee-based soap—all available for purchase at affordable prices.
Return to Nairobi: At around 3:00 PM, begin your drive back to Nairobi, arriving at your hotel by 4:00 PM.
