Our
Coffee & Tea Day Tour From Nairobi
is a full day tour from
Nairobi that departs daily at 0700 Hours. The tour begins
with a pick-up from your residence in the city and a
transfer by road to Nyeri. You arrive at Mboi farm at
about 1100 Hours and are welcomed with a cup of tea/
coffee and some snacks.
The
farm owner will welcome you followed by a brief orientation
of the farm. After you will begin your tour with a visit
to the cowsheds. Here you can try out your hand in milking
and feeding fodder to the cows.
After
milking, we enter the coffee farm. Guests will see where
some of the world’s finest coffee comes from and
how it is grown. Later at the farmhouse, you can also
participate in grading, roasting and grinding some of
this coffee for use in the farm (Kahawa chungu).
From
the coffee farm, you proceed to the tea section through
the farm. Along the way we will see Muratina trees which
were used to make the traditional kikuyu brew. You will
see how the brew was made with honey or sugar cane sap
and if you wish, you can enjoy a sip and feel the taste.
You
also pass by the Kikuyu traditional hut which will take
you back in time before the first European explorer
had set foot in Africa. At the tea estate, we get straight
to work by putting on the picking basket (Kigara).
You
will be taught how tea is it picked by hand. Picking
makes all the difference and it gives Kenyan tea its
famed taste of quality. The average tea picker collects
about 20 kilos in a day.
From
the tea fields we head back to the house in time to
find Susan making chapatis for lunch. If you wish, you
can join her. Just wash your hands and flex your arms
on the Chapatti rolling pin.
After
the cooking lesson, we sit for lunch served outdoors
or in the house. Lunch includes Kenyan dishes such as
Kienyeji, Githeri spiced with international seasonings.
By the time you are through, you will definitely know
the true taste of Central Kenya. Most of the food supplies
are freshly picked from the farm.
This
caps an eventful well spent morning. After lunch, you
can plant a tree at the farm and then you head off for
a stroll into the village.
Time
permitting, you can visit at least one or two of different
places such as Zaina falls, the local school, the village
center, the church, the cattle dip or the football grounds.
You can also accompany John as he delivers picked coffee
to the factory and see how it is processed.
After
an eventful day you will travel back to Nairobi and
dropped back at your residence.
