Kenya’s capital is cosmopolitan, lively, interesting and pleasantly landscaped. Its central business district is handily compact and is a great place to tune into modern urban African life. Today, it is the largest city between Cairo and Johannesburg.
Nairobi (green city in the sun) is an attractive and growing city that stands on the edge of the Athi Plains and the gentle slopes of Limuru that rise in the Aberdares Mountains. It is an important business and social center with high-rise buildings and international hotels and a good selection of restaurants serving Indian, Chinese, French, Italian and other cuisine. All about the city are public parks and gardens full of shrubs and flowers and the main routes out of town are tree-lined avenues.
On arrival at Nairobi Airport, after you disembark off the flight, proceed through immigration and custom procedures; you will be greeted by your friendly UTT representative.

Following the river’s curves, a forest of Doum Palms, Acacia and Tamarind is a magical contrast of cool green.
