Kiambethu Tea Farm

Step back in time and experience the charm of Kenya’s colonial past at Kiambethu Farm in Limuru. Just a stone’s throw from Nairobi’s bustling city center, this idyllic farm offers a peaceful escape from the urban jungle. Discover the fascinating history of the tea industry in Kenya as you explore the farm, which was purchased and farmed by AB McDonell in 1910. McDonell was a true pioneer, one of the first to make and sell tea commercially in the country, which has since become one of Kenya’s largest exports. As you wander through the acres of tea and indigenous forest, keep your eyes peeled for the playful Colombus monkey, a resident of the farm’s stunning natural surroundings. And don’t miss the chance to explore the beautiful gardens, a true oasis of tranquility.
