1-Day Nairobi Railway Museum Heritage Safari

1 Day Nairobi Railway Museum, Kenya Abakombe Tours and Safaris 5.0/5 from 1 review

Overview

A half-day visit to the Nairobi Railway Museum, tracing the history of the Uganda Railway - nicknamed the 'Lunatic Express' - whose construction led directly to the founding of Nairobi itself.

Nairobi exists largely because of a railway depot established during construction of the line from Mombasa to Uganda in the late 19th century. The museum houses vintage locomotives, carriages and photographs documenting this history, including the railway's notorious man-eating lion incidents at Tsavo during construction.

Migration Serengeti Safari provided a wonderful safari tour. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, the trip was well organized, and the Serengeti experience was amazing. I would recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.
