The Green City in the Sun: Complete Guide to Nairobi, Kenya

Many visitors who come to Kenya for world-class safaris and pristine beaches make a critical mistake: they treat Nairobi as a mere transit point. By spending as little time in Kenya’s capital city as possible, they use it only as a stop-over to their main destination.
As a resident of Nairobi for the last three years, let me tell you: there is so much to see, do, eat, drink and experience here. Known as "The Green City in the Sun", Nairobi has 4.4 million people and is a regional (if not continental) hub for arts and culture. We have one of the largest United Nations campuses in the world and a booming tech and start-up scene. At 5,500 ft. above sea level, the weather is temperate all year round and it’s easy to take advantage of this climate as you explore.
With two to three days, you can get a taste of what Nairobi has to offer and make your time here a wonderful part of your trip to Kenya.
