Food Tours Worth The Travel In Kenya

Food tours basically entail travelling to various places and trying the local delicious treats. As much as we like eating, well, not all but many of us, finding just the right joint is hard. The obvious and best places to eat are either expensive or very expensive while cheaper and best places to eat are at the end of tiny alleys or hidden somewhere on the third or fourth floor, many even almost engulfed and lost amid the clamour of the many hawker markets.

Food tours require a guide who is familiar with the place well. Here are food tours worth the travel in Kenya.

1.Foodie Tours

You get to tour with Tour Nairobi Endless Adventures across Nairobi’s many restaurants to sample the various types of cuisine they offer. You will sample some of the best picks from seafood restaurant Nairobi Tamarind to meat dominated “Beast of a Feast” at the Carnivore restaurant or a lovely garden setting at the Tamambo Kren Blixen Coffee garden or the Kiambethu Fram for some solid food in a colonial setting.

Well like Airbnb but in this case, you get to host guests only for a meal or get hosted for a meal. There are few hosts available for this but once you find one, it is going to be an enjoyable food tour. Guests get to tell their host in advance what they eat and what they don’t.

You can reach out to one host Daisy, for a food tour at her home. For $40, you can eat to your fill.
