EXPERIENCES THIS WEEK Sky Café at Sironka Valley Resort: Kenya’s First Suspended Café Just 45km from Nairobi

H

uman beings are endlessly creative, and nowhere is that more evident than at the Sky Café at Sironka Valley Resort. Tucked away in Kisamis, Kajiado County, just 45 km from Nairobi, this hidden gem is an ideal escape from the city.

Picture this: a small table with two chairs, hanging 60 metres above the ground, swaying gently as you sip wine and soak in the view. Beneath your feet lies the vast green valley, and when you look up, it’s just you and the sky. It is a wonderfully simple idea, yet so bold that you can almost feel the excitement before you even get up there.

The Sky Café is Kenya’s first and only suspended café, offering a dining experience unlike any other. For those of you who are adrenaline junkies and also love a romantic date spot, this has been designed precisely for you!

You can choose from three packages based on

your desired duration and preferences for enjoyment.

Please note that these packages are designed for

two people: The Bronze Package Gives you 20 minutes in the air along with two cups of tea

or coffee, all for KSH 7,350.
