This trip can be done as a day trip from Nairobi. You will leave Nairobi at 8am to arrive at Outdoor Africa by 10am. The tour begins at Outdoor Africa with morning tea, after which you jump in the tour bus to drive to the first house.
As you drive along the Aberdare Forest and into the Elephant corridor to Kipipiri, you will enjoy superb views all around. The tour skirts around Kipipiri to end at Clouds where the Murder of Lord Errol is discussed over a drink in the dining hall after a visit to Idina's infamous bathroom.
The tour guide will lead you into all the current conspiracy theories on who killed Lord Errol, the history of the Delamare family and the involvement of the 3rd Baron in Happy Valley. The Guide will also talk about other historical facts and stories on Karen Blixen's meetings in Happy Valley, the Muthaiga Club and history of the English in Kenya as well as what is currently happening in and around the Kinangop Plateau.
After throwing a feather in a sheet the tour then proceeds back to Outdoor Africa for a sumptuous three-course lunch and some time to hang around the lake and river.

Meet Ben and the team, your local connection in Nairobi. In recent years we've seen our city transform itself from a dusty city, at times dangerous and lacking in glamour, into one that is clean, vibrant and safe. We greatly welcome the increased numbers of visitors that this has brought our country, but we also recognize the potentially harmful nature of tourism as well. Due to this, we are involved in preventing exploitation of Maasai villages by overzealous and unscrupulous tour operators, as well as working with hotels and conference organizers to encourage more contribution to worthwhile Kenyan charities.
