Begin your tour at the entrance of the McMillan Memorial Library, a striking stone building located in the heart of Nairobi’s city center. Built in honor of Sir William Northrup McMillan, the library has served as a hub of knowledge for nearly a century.

With your professional guide, step through its historic doors and explore the library’s original reading halls, complete with polished wooden floors, vintage furniture, and archival photographs.
