Wonderful Coffee Farm Experience
The trip to the coffee farm went smoothly and learned a lot about the processing of coffee beans. Also, the driver was wonderful and on time for the trip.

Nothing to get excited about
Our driver was friendly and safe. Not by his fault, we arrived after the tour had already started. The guide at the farm did not acknowledge us when we joined the group. And then she made unnecessary, disparaging comments about us being American, not being able to roll our 'r's, and being left handed - none of which had anything to do with a coffee farm and felt random and unwelcoming. What she shared about the coffee bean growing process was interesting, but I would have liked to know more. The coffee tasting was structured like a "test" - could we tell which beans belonged to which cup of coffee? The flavors were delicious. Guests should know that it is important and expected that guests stay for the coffee in the garden at the end of the tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Libby, Thank you for sharing your experience at the coffee farm. We are trully sorry that you felt unwelcome at the coffee farm. Its unfortunate the guide at the farm made this statements and we have made this clear with them that it was unfounded and uncalled for. Rest assured this will not happen again. However according to her it was on a light and friendly note and NOT at all intentional or meant to be disrespectful to you! She apologises and expresses her regrets for making you feel that way. On the matter of 'r's the coffelier was explaning 'ruiru 11' a trype of coffee of the different varieties found in our region. Its only fair if this was unclear, you would have seeked clarification to get a clear picture of the matter. The coffelier had started with introductions before your arrival, hence where is likely the mismatch started. Its unfortunate the coffee testing process at the liquering lab which is interactive, educational felt like a 'test' to you yet its supposed to be a learning, appreciative, process. Its not a 'test' rather an engaging process where one actually perticipates effectively to understand coffee better. Part of the of the tour includes sharing a cup of coffee at the garden at pleasure. Nothing wrong with that. That said receive our regard and we hope to see you again for even a better experience. Once again receive our sincere apologies for this misunderstanding. We thank you.

A beautiful, informative, and pleasant morning at a coffee plantation.
I went with Kelvin from Rustic Nature Tours out to visit an amazing coffee plantation near Nairobi. It was hard to believe such a beautiful place exists so close to the bustling city. Kelvin arrived right on time and was extremely friendly and helpful. When we got to the plantation, a wonderful guide took the group through the grounds. She explained how everything works in an entertaining and informative way. We took quite a long walk through the "coffee bushes", a banana and avocado grove, then to the processing facility where we met some of the workers sorting and managing the beans. After we had a yummy tasting of different roasts and just enjoyed sitting the garden. Lovely - would highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Dear Nicholus, Thank you for your gracious review. We are happy you had a fanstastic experience with us once again and still did another tour with us! This shows our passions and dedication in what we do. A true picture of rustic nature tours. We look foward to our next trip with passion and professionalism. We look foward to our planned safari in September. Welcome again! Thank and see you soon

A lifetime must for coffee drinkers
We asked many questions and learned so much. It was fun to hear about the process from grafting, to berry harvest, to drying, to dehusking, and then shipping out to buyers who roast it. It was fabulous to start the tour having coffee served in the style of our choice, and learn before touring the field. Also fun to see bananas and mangoes growing. Would take others here again. The final part of the tour, taste testing between two, was also fun. We bought 7 bags of coffee between us !
Response from the operator: Dear Jill, thank you for writing such a gracious review of your tours & time with us. We're so glad you had an amazing day at the coffee farm. We appreciate your time, and we hope to see you again soon on our next adventure. Thank you,

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up cost?
+
Prices start at $80 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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up 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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 36 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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up?
+
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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up 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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up?
+
Around 13 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 Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up 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 Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. 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.
What is included in Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up?
+
Included: Private Transportation in a private car; All entrance fees; Pick up and drop off at your hotel/residence; and professional guide. Not included: Tips & gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 649 listed pickup locations in and around Nairobi. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Coffee Farm Village & Factory Half Day Tour with Pick-Up?
+
