Description
Explore the Karen Blixen Museum and the Ngong Hills on a guided tour from Nairobi. Visit the graves of Karen Blixen and Denys Finch Hatton and learn about the true story behind "Out of Africa."
Begin your tour with a visit to the Karen Blixen Museum, where her farmhouse still stands much as it did a century ago. Learn about Blixen’s life in Kenya and her impact on the country’s cultural history.
Next, head to the Ngong Hills, a place Blixen loved and where both she and Denys Finch Hatton were laid to rest. At the gravesites, your guide explains the historical context: colonial life, personal loss, ambition, and the Kenya that existed before independence.
Take in sweeping views of the Great Rift Valley as you reflect on the lives of Blixen and Finch Hatton. This tour is perfect for travelers who value history, literature, and landscape, not shopping stops or gimmicks.
