9 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.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Karen Blixen Museum and Nairobi National Museum. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Karen Blixen Coffee Garden and Cottages and Jamia Mosque. Spend the 12th (Mon) exploring nature at Nairobi National Park. Spend the 16th (Fri) wandering through the wild on a nature and wildlife tour. There's much more to do: take an exotic tour of a safari tour, look for gifts at Utamaduni Craft Centre, stroll the grounds of Nairobi War Cemetery, and see Off-Road Tours.
