Fantastic Nairobi day trip for solo or group travellers - As a female solo traveller, I felt very comfortable and safe with the very hospitable Steven who expertly navigated Nairobi’s busy roads to provide me with an unforgettable day tour of the city! The museum was an amazing introduction to traditional Kenyan culture and history. I really enjoyed the 360 degrees views of Nairobi from the top of the Convention Centre where Steven explained the city’s layout and development. We then travelled through the slums to the outskirts of Nairobi to visit an enterprise established to empower and support Masai women who make beads from clay from Mt Nairobi. From here, I enjoyed a traditional Kenyan lunch (lots of vege and a type of beef stew with mashed potatoes- yummy!). This was followed by a tour of another enterprise that helps support Masai (woodworking). Steven expertly navigated the congested roads to safely deliver me back to my hotel. Highly recommend this tour and Steven as a guide.
