★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 87 reviews · from $98Our pick

Spend a half day at Fairview Coffee Estate, about 20 minutes from Nairobi, with private hotel pickup, a farm and factory walk, coffee tasting, snacks, and guides such as Moses, Obed, Ann, or Elvis. The tour suits coffee fans and curious first-time visitors.

“An Essential tour for anybody who likes coffee and have half a day to spend outside the city. The driver/guide Moses and the local guide in the farm Irin were very helpful and provided an excellent service. Highly recommended ! My only remark is that there is a $30 fee for the farm, which is not included in the price. Although it is mentioned in the "What's Included" section, one would usually expect it to be part of the price, not in the details.”
