Kenya Meet the People Tour

Starting in the hustle and bustle of Nairobi we visit Traidcraft Exchange's office and then head north to see some of their projects and to meet some Fairtrade tea growers in Muranga.

On our way south we stop at Nakuru with its flamingoes and rhinos before heading on to the vast plains of the Maasai Mara. Our trip ends on the east coast of Kenya on the palm fringed beaches of Mombasa and with the craft workers at Bombolulu.
