Known as the safari capital of Africa, Nairobi is an energetic, modern city that serves as a fascinating introduction to both wildlife and nightlife. Music clubs pulse with life, shops and markets bustle, and a mélange of restaurants will tempt your palate in this former Maasai watering hole. Top sights include the Karen Blixen Museum, Giraffe Centre and the black rhinos of Nairobi National Park. The compact city center is safe to walk in and taxis make other areas accessible.

CK's Eye of Kenya is the Largest Ferris Wheel in Africa offering Gorgeous views of Nairobi. It surely is an Experience of a Lifetime. #RideThePride.
To correct the review below the Eye of Kenya is taller than the Cape Wheel and it is less than half of the price. It also has the most fantastic views and service!

It is very peaceful and attractive here..... I was inspired to read her fascinating book, Out of Africa, on my return flights back the United States... lots of insights into the peoples and nature around Nairobi during the colonial period of the early 1900's.

If you love cheese, Brown's Cheese Tasting Room is for you. We offer a unique foodie experience, just west of Nairobi. Brown's has been making cheese in Kenya for over 30 years, and we now invite guests to come to our facility to see how cheese is made, sample several varieties, and enjoy a delicious lunch sourced entirely from our organic garden. A typical visit to Brown's starts with a welcome drink and snack, followed by a cheesemaking demonstration by your host. This is followed by a tour of our production facility, with the highlight visiting one of our cheese caves, and seeing thousands of cheese maturing using traditional methods. After the tour, we sit down for our cheese tasting. We know that traditionally the cheese course is served after the meal, but we're cheese people and believe it is best enjoyed with a blank palette and an empty stomach! We taste 8-10 of our handcrafted cheeses, along with homemade crackers, breads, chutneys, plus our carefully selected house wines. We finish with a seasonal light lunch, typically consisting of soups, salads, and flatbreads, followed by dessert and coffee. Kids will love exploring the garden and animals, and even milking a cow. Our tasting room is open Thursday, Fridays, and Saturdays, but reservations are strictly required. Plan ahead, as Saturdays can be booked many weeks in advance. We look forward to introducing you to the wide variety of delicious cheeses crafted by Brown's.
Browns Village Market - One of the things that will always keep me going back to this beautiful place is there grilled cheese. i have tried many but this particular one that i had was the best that i have had in this side of Africa! .It was a smoked chicken sandwich, i was hesitant to try but Muthoni recommended and assured me that i will love it. She made it according to my liking i wanted it spicy and more cheesy and I must say. It was the best chicken sandwich I have ever had, and comes with fresh home made chips! Awesome and a must try for 7 usd!! Fresh bread , Fresh cheese, freshly made with a smile ! Well recommended!

The African Heritage House overlooking the Nairobi National Park is described by the Architectural Digest as "an architecture arising from the sere Kenyan plain like an outcropping of earth, a vision of usefulness informed by the African genius for decoration" .Inside one journeys through a spectrum of African textiles, masks, art, artifacts, crafts, books and photographs. Designed by American Alan Donovan, co-founder of the African Heritage, Africa's first Pan African Gallery, the house is a combination of the mud architecture from across Africa. Tours cost a minimum of K. Sh. 3000.00 (about $40) for up to 5 persons and thereafter K. Sh. 500 for each additional person.
Nothing beats a mid-morning tour with the acclaimed Allan Donovan explaining each of the artefacts in his labor of love crib! It’s a rich display of African art and culture, each room specially curated with hand picked pieces. Getting to do the tour with Allan you can touch the pieces and ask questions about their origins and the tours. The house has excellent views as it overlooks Nairobi National Park & the new SGR line passes close to the park. The staff who work there are very friendly as well & treated us to a sumptuous meal for lunch after our tour. This makes for an excellent tour between flights even if all you have is a layover in Nairobi since it’s close to the airport. Advisable to go with friends for cost savings since a tour is 4,000 for a min group of 4 ; you can opt to add lunch at the end of the tour or even an overnight stay, rates are on their website.

Very informative tour from plantation till coffee in the bag, everything one needs to know. I was walked through the different work stations and stages of procedure. Loved the coffee tasting part, drinking coffee in the beautiful garden and the gift at the end.

The War Cemetery is on the south-western outskirts of Nairobi, about 10 kilometres west of the city centre on Ngong Road, which is the main road to the Government Forest Reserve. The cemetery is adjacent to Nairobi race course and is included within the Ngong Forest Reserve. It is reached by way of a long driveway off Ngong Road, the turning being indicated by a CWGC direction sign.
