Bilha's Guidebook
Sightseeing
Enjoy the panorama at Great Rift Valley view point where you can see all major attractions such as Mount Longonot and the escarpments.
The View is always perfect in the evenings. The vast lands forming that perfect v-shape with tarmacked roads at the base, patches of vegetation dotting the space, the sun’s rays stretching far and wide and the mountains in the vicinity meeting the foreseeable edges of the land giving the feeling of an abstract painting never quite giving up that still life aspect. The sunset view there is amazing.
This is a free Site but you can buy Jewelry and other authentic Kenyan cultural curio's

Farm to Fork Experience
Adventure Farm Karen, is an awesome experience of family fun and learning! The farm has both crops and livestock that will keep your kids yearning to learn more. Kids, teens and adults alike will enjoy petting the rabbits, feeding the fish, cows and pigs with organic feed.
As they call out their favourite animal cartoon characters, your guide Zawadi will teach them fun facts. For example, did you know that pigs do not sweat?
Afterwards, the whole family will enjoy a garden and orchard tour and get to use your senses (touch, smell, sight and taste) to identify the gingers, butternuts, pepper, oranges, lemon, strawberries plus loads more!
After all the hard work, you get to cool down with some farm fresh gelato made from the farms own cows milk, then head over to the zipline and kids play area.
