Nairobi Coffee Farm and Factory Tour

1.Nairobi Coffee Farm and Factory Tour

★★★★★★★★★★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.”

3.Coffee Factory and Farm Tour with Transfer

Spend four hours traveling from Nairobi to Fairview Coffee Estate in Limuru, where guides such as Elvis and James explain coffee growing, processing, roasting, and brewing. Walk nearly 100 acres of coffee, taste at least two Fairview brands, and buy ground or whole-bean coffee to take home.

“The tour was absolutely amazing, the guide grew up on a coffee farm so she is passionate when she talks about coffee. I have a new appreciation for coffee after the tour. The transport was great, we were late to go to the pick up point and the transport collected us from the hotel and took us on a tour around Nairobi. We did pay a little extra for the additional tour but it made our life so much easier. The coffee tour is a definite yes if you around Nairobi.”
