What you can expect

This is more than just a tour—it is a deep dive into the soul of the city as you practise responsible tourism. After being picked up(or not) from your hotel, you’ll join our expert guide for an insightful walk through Nairobi's historic landmarks and modern architectural icons. You will discover modern day culture of Nairobi including transactions and the value of good and services.

Kindly note that the walk is only 4.3kms/2.6miles within the comfortable(safe) parts of the city.

Along the way, enjoy an optional taste of Kenya with a fresh fruit salad or sampling of Nyama Choma (local roasted goat meat). Immerse yourself further by learning essential Swahili phrases from your guide, which you can practice while interacting with locals at the vibrant Nairobi City Market.

We’ll share “insider tricks” on how to negotiate the best deals for souvenirs and point out fixed prices local stores. To ensure you’re looking your best, we even include a complimentary shoe shine from a local vendor and a professional street-style photo captured by one of Nairobi’s talented urban photographers.

We promote responsible and sustainable tourism by emphasising photography etiquette, respecting local culture through mindful dressing and engaging kindly with the locals(not giving money). Our tours actively support the local economy by partnering with fruit vendors, shoe shiners, curio traders and street photographers.

We believe in girl power! We have 3 out of 6 of our city guides as women.

The following are sites you will visit or see on your way: Jeevanje Gardens, Nairobi City Market, Jamia Mosque, McMillan Memorial Library, Askari Monument, Stanley Hotel, Dedan Kimathi Monument, Maasai Market, Supreme Court, Kenyatta International Convention Centre, Parliament Buildings and the Holy Family Basilica.
