I’m from NYC and lived in Kenya 5 years and this brings back memories. I love that you figured out how to explore Nairobi and enjoy it. The one thing I tell visitors to Nairobi and much of Kenya is to not compare and have an empty mind. If you just accept and explore, you will have a great time. Nairobi is a driving city and to make the best of things you have to drive. There are other places like Lavington, Karen, Gigiri, so many things to do. Also maybe spend a weekend in Nakuru to either golf or go to the National Park to Safari. One of the best experiences. While driving to Nakuru you will get to see the Rift Valley which is absolutely spectacular. I’m so jealous 😂
@@FreeFeetFamily also if your still in Nairobi. Lavington Mall has some great restaurants and shopping and next to Lavington Mall there is a restaurant that’s good on a weekend.
Thanks so much! We believe that a stretched mind can never go back to its original state and exposure and information is the greatest threat to ignorance! ✈️👣🌎😉
My home town ! I’m glad someone from the US has good things to say about Kenya ! I live in the US and I’ve come across folks who say we don’t even have houses in Africa .
ooh i love this.beautiful family you got brother and that little brother is going places. hes got the right attitude for this life. enjoy your motherland my home land. welcome home
I am so glad you have someone to stick up for you with the hair situation. Most of the time when we arrive there is no one so you get taken advantage of.
Welcome to Kenya 🇰🇪 Karibu!! ❤❤❤❤love the video!! you seemed sooo comfortable using the nduthi (motorcycle) I couldn’t even do that when I visit my home country 😂😂 Next time you need hair (braids) or whatever done go to a place called Umoja market.. it’s cheaper😊
Great video guys. It would be great if you did another one that showed the "wallstreet" Nairobi angle. We are a major financial capital with all the requisite skyscrapers and futuristic buildings etc.Nairobi is a great place for our African American brothers and sisters to come and invest not only in retail but also in large businesses.
Ooh yeah. That giraffe was really greedy kiddo. It snatched the food outta my hand for some reason😅😅😅😅You have a great upcoming youtube in this gentleman💪💪
Wow thanks so much! Kenya is so very beautiful and we were overwhelmed with all the love we received and the amazing way of life you all have. We loved it so much we will be back in about 4 months were already planning the return trip! 🇰🇪😃👍🏿🙏🏿💯
Josh made the vlog more interesting 😁❤️ Thanks to your hosts for taking you around. Those Kenyatta market women are so wrong for hiking the prices, they did it to me and a certain girl yet we're Kenyans but we left before braiding once we realized. Otherwise, Karibu Kenya anytime.
Love your vlog. We will be visiting Kenya in the near future. The gentlemen escorting you guys around, are they travel guides? We are interested in getting a guide for Nairobi. Any suggestions or contact information that you would recommend? Thanks.
@@patriceneale4014 Hey Thanks so much!! The gentleman escorting us is a close friend not a travel guide. Unfortunately at this time we don't have any guides on travel here but are working on creating one soon. 😉🇰🇪
3:37 all the black hair salons are owned by kenyans. Not chinese or other outside foreigners. Something black americans living in america and caribbeans living in canada, that can learn, by not selling their business to chinese.
@@FreeFeetFamily Enjoy our family is from Nashville but we moved to Tanzania the neighboring country we have been here now for 4 years but I love Kenya thinking of a switch up!😊

u say its crazy normal mode of transport here-NO ITS YOU WHO CHOSE A CRAZY MODE OF TRANSPORT-WHO RIDES ON A BIKE TO GO TO TOWN REALLY-U HAVE TRAINS BUSES CARS AND EVEN UBERS
Hello, I’m new to your channel and I love your content! My husband and I are considering spending our honeymoon in Kenya. Is Kenya safe for gay black men? My husband wants to go back to Europe but I want to go to Africa! What are your thoughts!?
The Coast may work for you well because same-sex relationships are common. Other places may not be as receptive if there is public display of affection. Outside Nairobi will even be more complicated. You risk persecution in some towns.

Thank you. They did a wonderful job on our hair.
When you come back, try some pimped-up matatus,the ones which have tv screens all over and music..
Yes, that's our plan. We were looking for one to take us to the area we needed to go. Next time, we will!
Welcome to Kenya
Asante Sana! We appreciate you.

Extortion will always make one to lose business opportunities. Customers must be treated the same way unless there's law guiding on otherwise.
Yes, we agree.

@@FreeFeetFamily that's great
Kenyan in the house 🏠, I just subscribed
Karibu family ❤
Tbh driving in Nairobi is a skill. I still don’t know how I do it
A skill it is, truthfully!
Isn't Al Shabaab blowing stuff all over Kenya lately?
I once spent a lot of time in Kenya and I loved it.
Nairobi, Mombasa Beach, Lokichoggio.
I know much of the country fairly well, but things have changed a lot in the past several years.
Lamu and the northern border area is dangerous.
I don't think you know what you are talking about, the last alshabaab attack was in January 2019.
The rest are normally at the Kenya Somali border and luckily it's never major affecting
I'm not being rude but Nairobi is Nairobi and it's a beautiful city in Kenya and indeed in Africa but calling it New York is what l differ from as l want my Nairobi to remain Nairobi and not under the shadow of another city.
U got issues
Understood, we love the city as well and can't wait to get back again!
Just shut up n take the complement.
Yoh relax. It's a figure of speech... Of course It's not literally New York City.
Second this😊
Greetings family
Hey thanks for the subscription, we have subscribeed back! Lets stay connected we love Kenya and will be back very soon! 😃
Welcome to maasai Mara Kenya🇰🇪
But you have to try the matatus my friend
Yes, the matatu was an experience as well 😂
Forgot to tell you visit elephant orphanage sheldrick wildlife
Yes!!! 🐘 We wanted to go there but because of our schedule we couldn't but we will be back very soon!! 🇰🇪🤎😃
We're not the New York or London of anything
We're simply Nairobi the green city under the sun.
Thank you for visiting and putting your experience on UA-cam
Thank you for watching our video! ❤
I'm Kenyan and take a boda boda only out of necessity and if really need to. It's scary!!!
Stay safe and enjoy your stay. Kenya and Nairobi have great potential but the current crop of leaders is a serious letdown.
Yes we have heard about the current leaders. Hopefully things will get better soon! Thanks so much lets stay connected, we will be back soon! 🇰🇪
Very right but soon they will taste the wrath of Kenyans.
@@georgeikinya2779 well that came fast. I never saw it coming.
Bruh the malls in kenya are better than the ones in state,,,they also kids friendly I suggest all of them
Thank you!
Next time you take bodaboda, don’t forget to ask for a helmet 🪖 not sure about Kenyan road laws but in Tanzania and Rwanda it’s the LAW!!
We will keep that in mind.
I really hate that comparison …
We are just Nairobi…
❤
That's not Nairobi CBD, that downtown
Yes we visited both but must have mispoke on the location. Thanks so much for watching. 😃
Should've used uber instead of bolt, bolt is a lot more unsafe.
Ok cool, next time we definitely will. Thanks so much! 🙂
Nairobi is more like the Atlanta of Africa…
❤
True,,,she gat ATL vibes
Are you a daughter of Charity Ngilu? Ama wakenya Mimi ndio sioni vizuri?
We are not. Thank you for the comparison. I'm sure she is beautiful ❤

The drink was definitely hot my friend!
i'd say more like atlanta. joburg is the new york
❤
How does it feel to be in a place where yu are the majority
It feels amazing!
What chaa talking about Willis
😆😂😄
Bodaboda is a big no 😂for me..they are a hardworking people
They are definitely hard working! It's an experience none the less.
They want to charge you the mzungu price.
But you are paying cheap if you convert into dollars.
We understand. 😊
u say its crazy normal mode of transport here-NO ITS YOU WHO CHOSE A CRAZY MODE OF TRANSPORT-WHO RIDES ON A BIKE TO GO TO TOWN REALLY-U HAVE TRAINS BUSES CARS AND EVEN UBERS
😂😂😂 He wanted a new experience.
Using the name new York plus the places you visited is satirical 😂
Thanks for your comment! We love Kenya! 🇰🇪💪🏿😃
Please take advantage of the cheap and fresh fruits and vegetables to eat a healthy diet. Cheap healthy diet. Only in the motherland.
That was one of our favorite parts! That and the fresh juices ❤
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Your in sio what that's a bad thing in swahili, try and ask for someone to read it for you syokimau
Lol, I can pronounce it properly now. I was too new to the area on that day 😂
Josh 🥹🥹
He's getting so big! Wow time flies!
You are doing CHEAP! I'm from Kenya and even I don't risk ridimg those bodas. Next time, ssve up some real dollars and rent a car!
😂😂😂 We have and had no desire to drive over there. But, thank you for the advice 😊
😂😂 Buda usichome sana cheza chini
It's cheaper to Uber than take boda I think it's the experience they are going after and not Luxury. Driving also isn't a sign of wealth
@@PROAM254 Exactly! Being our first time ever in the country I'm sure they don't want us driving anyway. 😆
