With 15+ tastings across multiple stops, you’ll experience everything from simple staples and street snacks to the core dishes that define Kenyan meals, including ugali, greens, grilled meats, and coconut-based cooking.

What You’ll Experience

Nairobi

Nairobi food tour offers guests a culinary experience carefully curated food adventure, led by your team of Nairobi tastemakers. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, and the limitations of street food vendors and local eateries mean we cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian or halal diets. ✔ No pork diets, gluten intolerance, lactose intolerance, mild tree nut / peanut allergies and no seafood diets are possible though some tastings do not have alternatives available and the menu would be more limited.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Don’t expect fine dining - this is a moveable feast built around the dishes beloved by locals. 
You’ll begin with simple, comforting staples like uji (cassava porridge) and supu ya kuku served with spiced masala chai, before moving into the core of Kenyan cooking. Along the way, try ugali with greens like sukuma wiki and osuga, fish in coconut sauce, and popular street foods like crispy viazi karai and beef sambusa. There are heartier stops too, including goat nyama choma barbecue and slow-cooked dishes served with rice and broth. You’ll also sample seasonal fruits and local sweets to finish.
