Description
Step into Nairobi’s rich heritage on this unique cultural experience combining history, storytelling, and modern city lifestyle. Begin your journey at the historic farmhouse of Karen Blixen, the famous author behind 'Out of Africa.' Enjoy a guided walk inside her original 1912 colonial home, hear stories about her life, coffee farm, and romance with Denys Finch Hatton, and admire beautiful views of the Ngong Hills just as she described in her book. See her antique furniture, photos, and film props used in the movie 'Out of Africa,' and explore a peaceful garden perfect for photos. Continue to the Kenya Railway Museum, home of East Africa’s railway history. See original old steam locomotives and wagons, hear the famous “Lunatic Express” story — how the railway linked Mombasa to Lake Victoria, and learn about the incredible tale of the man-eating lions of Tsavo. Explore vintage railway stations, artifacts, and models, and climb into some old train engines for great photos. Finish the tour at Village Market, one of Nairobi’s most stylish lifestyle centers. Enjoy free time to shop, relax, or enjoy a snack, browse craft shops, local art, clothes, gifts, and souvenirs, and soak in a clean, safe, and high-quality environment.Includes
