Journey: 

African Culture And Traditions

Personal highlights

  1. The Alchemist: probably the hippest bar and club in Nairobi these days - mostly for expats
  2. Meltdown: Nairobi's darkest, most broken and experimental night of techno and electronica
  3. Bad Mambo: group of DJs playing an absolutely crazy mix of electronic music - not my favourite
  4. Mama Rocks: setting the bar really high for quality burgers - from a food wagon after midnight
  5. Event venue: great outdoor location with a large stage, lounge, multiple bars and restaurants
