Karen Blixen Museum and The Giraffe Center

3 Hours

Visit the Karen Blixen Museum, the former home of the author of “Out of Africa.” This museum provides rich insights into the lives of early white settlers in Kenya and their efforts to establish new lives in the region. At the Giraffe Centre, you can enjoy close interactions with the Rothschild Giraffes, including opportunities for feeding and taking up-close photos.

Expert guides will lead you through the Karen Blixen house, now a museum, offering a deep dive into its history and significance. Conclude your tour with a visit to the Kazuri Beads Factory and Pottery Centre. This center produces brightly colored handmade ceramic jewelry sold worldwide. “Kazuri,” meaning “small and beautiful” in Kiswahili, perfectly describes each handcrafted bead, shaped and painted by Kenyan women at the workshop.

The Kazuri Beads workshop, located just a stone’s throw from the Karen Blixen Museum, supports disadvantaged Kenyan women by providing employment and healthcare services for their families.
