Tea Farm Homestay;
Kiambethu
Tea Farm Homestay is
about an hour's drive away from the hustle and bustle
from Nairobi and as such makes a welcome day or
overnight tour. Kiambethu
Tea Farm Homestay is situated at 7200ft in
a truly magnificent garden with views of the spectacular
Mount Kilimanjaro and the Ngong hills. Kiambethu
is a farmhouse to four generations of the first
family to plant and make tea in Kenya.
Kiambethu
Tea Farm Marcus
and Fiona welcome you with some homemade biscuits
(yum!) and of course tea, before regaling tales of
the farm and the tea making process. This particular
farm is one of the founding ones in Kenya and kicked
off the million dollar industry today. The gardens
around the home are lovely and well worth a stroll,
especially to catch glimpses of the resident colobus
monkeys! Also included in the tour is a walk through
the indigenous forest that is still preserved (most
was cleared for the tea farms).
The
guide is highly entertaining and comical! Your stay
here includes a relaxed lunch. Again most of the produce
is locally sourced and when making reservations through
African Spice Safaris inform them of any dietary requirements!
Lunch is a 3 course affair with complementary beverages
- wine, beers, sherry, soft drinks and of course teas
and coffee! Kiambethu's lunch is a great meal with
homemade butter, rolls, and soup. Then salad, maize
(white corn) and cheese, potatoes, green beans, carrots,
Swiss steak, followed by fruit and homemade ice cream.
The veggie options served is fantastic.
At
Kiambethu Tea Farm, guests are given an insight into
the tea making process followed by an opportunity
to see tea in the field. Accompanied by the resident
Kenyan guide, guests can also take a short walk into
the small indigenous forest and learn about the plants
and how they were used traditionally, watch the Colobus
monkeys and birds that are resident in the gardens
or just enjoy the sweeping views across the tea fields
to the Ngong Hills. When in the area, be sure to also
check out Tigoni waterfalls! A definite activity worth
doing when in Nairobi!
In
case you would like a Homestay, you could stay in
the house and enjoy meals together with Marcus and
Fiona – request for reservations through Africa
Spice Safaris.
