Extraordinary
5-star chauffeur service. Brought to the site and then taken back to the hotel. Friendly, with conversation. On site, we were received royally. The area is nothing but nature and fresh air. One can spot monkeys and other animals there. We indulged in numerous teas, visited the entire operation with very detailed explanations from the farm manager. Meal prepared by the house chef. Local, delicious. Every person we met was fantastic! We highly recommend it ❤️
Response from the operator: Thankyou for your kind review and it was a pleasure hosting you and thankyou for booking the tea farm tour experience with us.

Excellent
Eric was our guide and excellent. Kinyenje, the owners grandson, gave us the tour and tea tasting. Followed by a delicious lunch and good conversation with Eric and Kinyenje. It was a privilege to be hosted on a working farm, learning the tea process and more about modern Kenya. Highly recommend this tour
Response from the operator: Thankyou for booking the tour with us, I'm glad you enjoyed your time at the tea farm. It was a pleasure to meet you.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $69 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 Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 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 Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch?
+
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 Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch?
+
Around 3 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Nairobi : Private Tea Farm Tour With Tea Tasting & Lunch 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.
