The Masai Ostrich Farm Kitengela 1 Day Tour takes you to the Ostrich Farm in Nairobi. The farm is a great place to get up close and personal with ostriches.  It is located roughly an hour from Nairobi, on the outskirts of the city of Kitengela. The Ostrich Farm is also about 30 minutes from the Kenya International Airport and covers 200 acres.

There is more to do at the Ostrich Farm than just ride an Ostrich. Things to do at the Ostrich Farm in Nairobi include: bird watching, eating ostrich meat, riding an Ostrich, spending a relaxing day at the resort, and touring the Ostrich Farm pens.

The Ostrich is the largest bird in the world and cannot fly, but it has strong, long, powerful legs that enable it to run at an approximate speed of 70 kilometres per Hour. It can maintain this speed for 20-30 minutes. You can tour the Ostrich Farm and ride an ostrich.

They have two different types of ostriches at the farm – the Masai Ostrich (red in colour) and the Somali Ostrich, which is blue (the one you ride). Our Masai Ostrich Farm Kitengela 1 Day Tour will offer you insights into Ostriches and Ostrich facts. 

The tour of the farm takes almost half an hour, depending on how inquisitive you are and how many photo opportunities you get. It is very interesting to see ostriches at different stages of growth and sizes. Ostrich products are available for sale.

An ostrich is slaughtered at 8 months because the quality and taste of its meat are at their peak during that period of growth. There is also the opportunity to view and hand-feed the ostriches, and if the weather is good, you can even take an ostrich ride!  

After the tour, you will have lunch. Ostrich meat is low in cholesterol. Later, you can swim and relax before we return to the city.
