Tigoni falls and Tigoni Tea Gardens

Just a one hour drive away from the hectic life of Nairobi, Tigoni falls provides an opportunity for a getaway. This site is also an amazing place for a day picnic with family and friends.




The Tigoni Tea Garden is a beautiful, vast tea garden that leaves people flabbergasted. The visitors can roam freely at their will and if lucky, get a chance to interact with the care-takers to know more about it.
