Visitors fuel a thriving tea tourism industry in the East African country.

Traditionally a major agricultural product for export, tea has increasingly taken on a new role in recent years for Kenya. From the historic tea estates of Kiambethu Farm, pioneering purple tea farm of Gatura Greens to scenic tea plantations of Kericho, this East African country offers tantalizing tea tourism, giving visitors a unique opportunity to understand what makes its brew special.

Kenyan tea has gained popularity across the globe due to its distinct flavor and aroma as well as its bright liquor color, making it a popular choice for tea drinkers and tea blends.

Tours to the farms, therefore, offer visitors an educational experience of understanding Kenyan tea, participating in tea picking, tasting the beverage as well as getting insights into local culture. They can also visit factories to learn about tea processing.
