Nairobi
The city has many tours and coffee farm tours is one of those exciting tours. After you book this tour, we shall pick you from your city hotel and proceed for the tour. The drive is around 30 minutes depending on the location of your city hotel. In the heart of Kenya’s Central Highlands, home to the world’s finest coffee, lies Fairview Coffee Estate. This beautiful coffee farm with nearly 100 acres under coffee is situated 1,750meters above sea level. The farm is irrigated by the Riara River that is in turn fed by streams from the Kenyan Highlands. Since the early 1900’s, Fairview Estate’s fertile soils have produced high quality coffee through the use of holistic production methods that take our customers concerns for a healthy environment seriously. We introduce the concept of coffee tourism to our visitors, who get to experience a coffee tour around the coffee farm, getting to learn about the Fairview Estate coffee brand and it's production later, we drop you back to your city hotel

The coffee farm tour was...
The coffee farm tour was a great experience. We were taking round the farm and the processes of producing different shades of coffee. Tasted the coffees and also had some with cookies. It’s a good experience for lovers of coffee and non-lovers as well. The driver/guide Mr. Kim was also very nice throughout the period.

Tour company is a scam. The coffee farm itself is awesome.
Do not use this tour company. Their page does not show you have to pay the entrance fee in addition to their fee until after you have paid. Only statement in exclusions is “Nairobi”. WTH does that mean? What do they offer for the $38 besides transportation. Book it separately yourself through Bolt for about $6.00 USD.
Response from the operator: Dear Cory, We are very disappointed by your review, especially because it contains information that is incorrect and misleading. You booked the tour online, where all inclusions and exclusions were clearly listed before payment. You later cancelled the booking and never joined the tour, yet you are now claiming we “scammed” you, despite the fact that no service was provided and no interaction with our team took place. Your statement that we hide entrance fees is false. The entrance fee is clearly indicated on the booking platform under Exclusions, and every guest sees this information before completing their reservation. It is unfair to tarnish our company’s name with accusations that do not reflect your actual experience. We kindly request that you update your review to reflect the truth, as it misleads future travelers and harms a business that operates with transparency and professionalism. #Management.

Great experience learning about coffee!
This was an amazing experience. It began with our driver, John, who was early waiting for us at our hotel. We arrived and paid ($30 per person as stated on Viator) for the coffee tour. They took credit cards which was great. Raymond was our guide and he was awesome. We enjoyed every moment from walking the grounds to seeing the process to tasting the coffee. This experience far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

Scam
It’s a scam, once you book the tour, the operator ask you for 30$ more as an « intrance fee ». It was not written on the trip advisor website (see picture below).

Genuine feel of the city thanks to my travel guide
I did the coffee plantation tour and added the walking city tour on the same day, both with Kenya Bush Expeditions Tour. Shem, my guide, was amazing—super friendly, dynamic, and tailored the trip to match my goal of experiencing the real Nairobi. The tour went above and beyond, challenging some ideas I had before visiting. Excited to return for more Kenyan adventures. Thanks for an excellent tour! — Marie.
Response from the operator: Dear Marie, Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience with Kenya Bush Expeditions Tour at the Coffee farm and city tour! We’re thrilled to hear that Shem’s friendly and dynamic approach, along with the tailored tour, provided you with a genuine feel of Nairobi. It’s fantastic to know that the tour went above and beyond, challenging preconceptions and leaving you excited for more Kenyan adventures. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to hosting you on more memorable tours in the future. Safe travels until then!

Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya cost?
+
Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Coffee Farm Half-Day Tour in Kenya start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 days group joining safari to Maasai Mara with a Land Cruiser Jeep, 1 Day trip to Hells Gate and optional Lake Naivasha From Nairobi, Nairobi Masai village Day Tour Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
