I have tried Kenyan tea #ketepaKenya widely available here in North American stores with upscale price, really awesome tea. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video
Thank you for this video tea gave me and my siblings a life. My father was a factory worker 1982-2019 even though we don’t own a tea farm he did manage to educate us and that’s all we needed in life and will forever be grateful.
That house is so cool. Thanks for finally visiting my home region. I spent my childhood in a place like that at the foot of Mt. Kenya near Meru town. It's to this day my favourite place in Kenya. I always go back to clear my head and gain perspective from the hustle of the city.
This reminds me that actually Kenya is a paradise in itself. We are have the best coffee in the world. We natural resources and minerals .I know one day God will bless us with a good govt cuz we ain't supposed to be a developing country
@@bellaolum9768 We the people are the greatest resources. For the minerals,we just need proper investments in prospecting and explorations. Mineral mapping files are gathering dust in beaureucrats' offices
How did I miss this? I have driven by this area so many times over the years but have never stayed here. The house was enchanting!!! I already love Kenyan tea but have a brand new appreciation for it. So much work goes into making sure it is perfect! This video was informative, fun, and the view of Mt. Kenya was wonderful!!! Thanks for making this great video!!!!
This is home. I practically grew up not far from here. Our tea has actually been processed in this factory when the factory near our farm fills up!! Thank you for this.
At last, you've visited a Kenyan tea plantation,the evergreen produce that is Kenya's delight! Tea makes humanity equal,it's taken in palaces and in refugee camps. Now you know Hakuna Matata whenever and wherever there's Chai
Hahaha Love you Guys, Best Tea you can get. I Like Kiru Tea Factory Tea, I gave some tea bags to my UK friends and their response is always, "The best tea i have ever tasted".
I have resisted from making comments but, you guys brought some fond memories back. I spent a few years on the other side of Mt. Kenya schooling and tea picking was one hell of an experience I will never forget. Thanks.
I watched this while drinking my tea. The house is wonderful and the place on the roof, perfect. The tea trees look more beautiful when they are closer. Nice cooking. Lovely video, interesting footage.
After watching your first video that you made in a Nairobian restaurant made on a round roof top I knew am here to stay,it feels awesome to see the good side of Kenya.
Tracey, you were so close to the coffee farms too...don't let them make you feel guilty of having coffee in the middle of a tea farm. I'm happy to see my home town, Karatina, featured in your videos.
This is amazing 👍😍, you are in my area home, this video is the best,the weather, food especially you should have tried the food sweet potatoes mukimo etc,now Tracy visit the coffee plantation and factory,all in all, you guys are wondering.
Thank you Dave and Tracey for your efforts of showing the beauty of my country to the World. For a long time we've had people who come to Kenya with aim of showing how poor we are - which is not the whole truth.
Ahahah, glad you do guys, I think this is my best video yet. Kenyans and tea = Match made in Heaven. Also... Great job on helping out the restaurants to get business going.
You guys make a great pair or great couple. Keep it up for years ahead. Would be great example for any young couple to show how you can keep it going if both understand each other's choices & respect them. And great life filled with great times will follow you guys.
@Vansah Swift was the video about tea production by region in Kenya?I thought the content producer wanted to demonstrate on an experience of living in a tea farm where processing is done on the same facility.
My magical Kenya. I come this region particularly the far end of mt. Kenya the Meru county region. Breathe taking sceneries and mind blowing beautiful sceneries to gaze upon. I think you should visit and see this hidden gem now you've settled in Kenya. The Ngare Ndare rain forest in Timau few kilometres from Nanyuki, Lake Ellis in mt. Kenya and the colourful Igombe craterlake in Igembe North. Welcome home.
So glad you got to visit a tea plantation. I had once suggested Kericho (that's the major tea cultivation part of Kenya) but it is much farther from Nairobi so at least this area is much closer to the capital.
Hey Dave and Tracy!! Long since I last visited. I'm here and I'm still loving you guys so much. You seem well integrated into our culture but you haven't accepted the Kenyan traffic situation. However, today, I just checked in on you guys and I feel like urging you to visit Kericho if you want to really see scenic tea plantations......that's where you'll know some of the reasons why you must not confine yourselves to one region.......Kericho tea farm is a beauty to behold....from Mt. Kenya please, head straight to ...Kericho.
The large tea farms in the Rift Valley use machines to pluck tea leaves, so they are not so careful. The smaller plantations are cautious to be pick the bud and two leaves because they have best quality chemical compounds. They are used to blend and improve quality of large plantation teas. The area looks like Karatina, which comes from the word "quarantine", but Kikuyu tongues couldn't have such a tongue twister. When the British government confiscated land in Nyeri to give to the settlers, Kikuyu cattle that had been confiscated was held there in quarantine, before being given to the army.
I love tea farm views. Gotta visit Gatura Greens that specialize in purple tea one day (also 2 hrs away but with a waterfall you can swim at) but the biggest unreal looking beautiful tea farms of all I've seen are in Kericho (many more hours away from Nairobi though ) 👍🏾
There's a wonderful funny book called "no picnic on mount Kenya" about Italian p.o.w.s who had been held at the foot of mount kenya for ages before they realised it was there. That mountain is so capricious!

Nice of you Dave and Tracy to help people to get food or receive food online good job Dave and Tracy 🌷🇰🇪❤🇨🇦
Hey you missed the banana plant. I can see it on the video.
What’s the wine?!
Hi Dave - Thanks for visiting my community. Ndima is where we sell our tea, I hope the tea is sweet as well.
I hope we treated you well 😊!
These guys market Kenya in the coolest way.
awh, thank you!
A million times better than that Naomi Campbell crap
But you know a kenyan can't be allowed in these facilities nor record😒😧😧
@@Kevinamenya84 lies
@@Kevinamenya84 What facilities?
You guys are the simplest couple that ever be. This is just amazing
thank you so much!! :)
Thank you for this video tea gave me and my siblings a life. My father was a factory worker 1982-2019 even though we don’t own a tea farm he did manage to educate us and that’s all we needed in life and will forever be grateful.
I love that! :)
Am sure tea felt jealous when you guys took coffee for breakfast in the middle of a tea farm😆😆😆
I wouldn't even call it going against the grain coz the tea leaves might be offended 😁
🤣🤣
😅😅😅
lol, and carrying wine
🤣
Just closed school and now I'm watching all the videos I missed
Glad you can catch up :)
Reminds me of the school trips to tea farms in Kericho. Things we take for granted
thats true
Lived and worked in Nyeri 6 years ago. Best days of my life. The place is so serene.
it really is!
Don’t you just love this couple
awh thank you! :)
this is nice,next time visit Kericho county,thats the home of tea farms.
Before even Clicking i thought is my home town Kericho lol
Yah very true welcome to kericho the home of tea land
we will check it out!
@@DaveMani most welcome ,am from kericho
@davimani welcome to kericho....tea is visible from the main highway like manicured grass....
May God bless the owner of that home.Kenya is a beautiful country.God resting place.Thank you for this video.Am missing home
Thanks for watching
That's very much cool to see you guys exposing the unknown of Kenya to the rest of the world
always :)
That house is so cool. Thanks for finally visiting my home region. I spent my childhood in a place like that at the foot of Mt. Kenya near Meru town. It's to this day my favourite place in Kenya. I always go back to clear my head and gain perspective from the hustle of the city.
I can see why :)
Thanks guys for marketing our beautiful country. Thats home sweet home are wowwwwww
Home area
That’s awesome :)
This reminds me that actually Kenya is a paradise in itself. We are have the best coffee in the world. We natural resources and minerals .I know one day God will bless us with a good govt cuz we ain't supposed to be a developing country
Which natural resources and minerals?
We need a Magufuli
I totally agree
@@bellaolum9768 We the people are the greatest resources. For the minerals,we just need proper investments in prospecting and explorations. Mineral mapping files are gathering dust in beaureucrats' offices
Totally agree. I have lived & worked in middle east and america. None beats our beautiful Africa/kenya. But poor governance is our greatest undoing.
This is for us who grew up in the village (while picking tea). Good job and thank you for this guys!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is soo great.my grandmother used to show me how to pick tea,the worst thing is I used to find chameleon there and that was the end
How did I miss this? I have driven by this area so many times over the years but have never stayed here. The house was enchanting!!! I already love Kenyan tea but have a brand new appreciation for it. So much work goes into making sure it is perfect! This video was informative, fun, and the view of Mt. Kenya was wonderful!!!

Oh wow! That’s awesome!
these guys just know how to live! I lived in Kenya all my life and had no clue about all these cool places!
it is a beautiful place thats for sure!
