Come and enjoy a lunch time tour of the farm with Fiona... Arrive at 11am and over a cup of tea or coffee the history of the farm and process of making tea is informally explained, 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. Enjoy your 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. Advance booking is essential, cost is Kshs.3,800 per person all inclusive, children under 12 are half price.

We visited Kiambethu earlier today and it was a superb experience. A short picturesque drive from Nairobi CBD area, it is a perfect day trip to do. From the welcome we received once we arrived, to the tremendous talk that Fiona gave us about tea (we learnt so much, and yet it was not information overload) and finally to the amazing tea and lunch - everything was just perfect. The farm house is really charming and lawn and gardens are beautiful and a great place to spend some time too. The walk through the indigenous forest was also refreshing. Fiona and the team have really made their home a little piece of heaven and it was lovely to be their guests for the day - everyone makes you feel right at home. The only difficulty with coming here is that you don't want to leave.

Distinctive architectural features in this old town center, such as enclosed courtyards and intricately carved doorways, exhibit the confluence of Arabic, Indian and European cultures.

Best way to explore the old town and navigate the narrow alleys is to get a local guide. After the tour make sure to enjoy some local swahili cuisine at the various ocean front restaurants.

Overall Ratings

Bio-Ken is a research centre, which deals with reptiles, especially snakes and snake-bite. Located less than 5 minutes drive from the hotels in Watamu - Kenya, it houses the largest collection of Snakes in East Africa and is open to the public. There are about 127 different snake species in Kenya. Of these only 18 have caused human fatalities and only another 6 could kill you. Another 10 could cause you a lot of pain and the remaining 93 or so, are non-venomous nor dangerous.

The Snake Farm worth a visit. It will not take long ( 1 hour maybe?) but you will get lots of info some very curious others maybe useful in the future who knows ? We had a friendly and smiling guide who take us around the farm and showed us tons of snakes of different species ( some among the most poisonous ones like the green mambas) explaining us where they live, how they live, how dangerous they are and how you can survive a bite. You can touch a snake if you like ..but do not have to ! Especially with kids it is a place not to be missed ! The entrance fee is not the cheapest one but they use the money to work with snakes, collecting the poison and preparing the antidotes. And removing snakes from houses or hotels in case one "got lost "and goes around a lodge ! They simply pick it up and bring it back to the forest ( hopefully far enough not be back the day after !)

Its a simple little hike up to the top of the observation hill. Its defiently worth it, we got to see the park at an amazing vantage point! We came here for lunch and got to see hippos during the day out of the water eating and basking in the sun! The bathrooms here were very nice and kept up as well.
