19 days in Nairobi Itinerary

You're likely to visit Nairobi at least once on a trip to Kenya, as the sprawling city houses the country's international airport and remains the jump-off point for many tours and safaris.

Step out of the city life by going to Nairobi National Park and Mount Longonot. Karen Blixen Museum and Nairobi Gallery will appeal to museum buffs. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Nairobi: Waterfalls Inn Tigoni (in Kiambu) and The Reserve at Rimpa Estates Wildlife Conservancy (in Kiserian). The adventure continues: trek along Ngong Hills, explore the galleries of Aero Club of East Africa (ACEA), wander the streets of Nairobi Mosques, and admire all the interesting features of Kibera.
