Embark on a scenic road trip from Nairobi to Thompson Falls. Pass through the tea-growing highlands of Limuru, stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoints, and visit the town of Nyahururu, the gateway to Thompson Falls.

Start your journey from Nairobi, a city with a vibrant cityscape and iconic skyline punctuated by modern skyscrapers and cultural landmarks. Pass through historical towns, stunning viewpoints, and vast stretches of farmland that capture the essence of rural Kenya.

Head northwest towards the town of Limuru, located in the heart of Kenya's tea-growing highlands. Stop at one of the many tea estates that offer guided tours, giving you an opportunity to learn about Kenya’s tea production process, from the picking of the leaves to the packaging of the final product.

Continue the drive, passing through towns such as Uplands and Kimende, each with its unique character and charm. Take a break at the Great Rift Valley viewpoints and take in the panoramic vistas of the Rift Valley.

After descending into the Rift Valley, your next major stop is the town of Naivasha, located around 90 kilometers from Nairobi. Naivasha is a popular weekend getaway for Nairobi residents and tourists alike, thanks to its serene atmosphere and proximity to Lake Naivasha, one of the largest freshwater lakes in the Rift Valley.

As you leave the Rift Valley behind and continue your journey north, the road gradually climbs back into the highlands, and the landscape becomes greener and more fertile once again. The town of Nyahururu, located approximately 186 kilometers from Nairobi, is your final destination and the gateway to Thompson Falls.

The main attraction in Nyahururu, and the highlight of your journey, is Thompson Falls, a stunning waterfall that plunges 74 meters (243 feet) into a deep gorge below. The falls are named after Joseph Thompson, a Scottish explorer who was the first European to visit the area in 1883. The sight of the water cascading over the edge of the cliff into the lush green ravine below is truly breathtaking, and the sound of the roaring water creates a sense of awe and tranquility.
