It was even better than a 5 star experience. Learnt so much about tea including how to differentiate it from coffee. The tea tasted great and the views were incredible! Learned a lot about traditional medicine too in the forest walk which was refreshing. The lunch was a fresh and delicious home cooked meal, and the ice is one of the richest I've tasted in while, 10/10 (skip it if you hate cream). The lunch was also extremely inclusive offering vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options. The place is gorgeous, peaceful, and homey. Fiona, Maureen, and Julius were great and knowledgeable hosts. Would 1000% recommend if you're looking for a calming, wholesome activity.

I had an amazing experience at Tea Farm in Kiambethu, Nairobi—definitely a 5 out of 5! The place is peaceful, beautifully maintained, and offers a perfect escape from the city. The lunch at The Team Farm is also fantastic—fresh, delicious, and perfectly complements the overall experience. What truly made the visit exceptional was our guide, Alex. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable time. Alex’s passion and professionalism truly stood out. I highly recommend The Team Farm for anyone looking for a unique, relaxing, and educational outing near Nairobi. I’ll definitely return!

After initially not being picked up due to a misunderstanding, everything worked out in the end. The guide kindly organized a taxi to the farm so that I could still take part. A lot of interesting information about coffee is shared. The guide has a pleasant, life-affirming spirit. You can learn a lot here. The tour is highly recommended.
