The Adventurous Road Trip from Kisumu City to the Tea Town of Kericho Kenya

[@MichelePonte]

My first time in Kericho I was shocked by how green it looks, the color is so sparkling and vibrant I almost needed sunglasses!

[@AfrikanTraveller]

You have vivid Memory Ponte, the place is so green and the Extensive meandering tea farms makes the place just magical.

My flight departs to Kenya next week. After 3 years of waiting (working, building life) i return to my wife's homeland, now with her. I can soon see the vast green fields and feel the farmlands clean air and enjoy the warmth of kenyan people's hearts.

[@DennisTheNational]

Kisumu County does alot of sugarcane farming especially if u guys would have taken the muhoroni - koru- Fort Ternan-Londiani junction route which bypasses kericho town on your way to Nairobi. and they have several factories in kisumu County..... Bytheway The sunset shots of kericho tea plantation is extremely amazing.

Most underrated KZbin yet your the most Educating when it comes to Content in Kenya. Kenyans are really Naive people just look at who they Elected as a Leader. Yet they want a good life. My pple you are all a peace of work.

[@NileGoddess]

Kenyans have made a terrible mistake.But hopefully it does not cost us.We would have choosen a leader who fought for our democracy who is always for Africans now we are about to start eating GMO foods and some naive Kenyans think it’s a good thing,it’s the most terrible mistake.Why would Africans be importing food instead of growing their own.Just sad.

Why can't KeNHA invest more in road maintenance in terms of road markings? Good roads, poor maintenance! Imagine how beautiful such a stretch of the road from Kisumu to Kericho would look if it was freshly marked.

[@daviddavis7959]

From your videos of western and Nyanza these areas have conducive climate to grow any cash crop enmass. They have the land, the many water sources almost 8 rivers feed Lake victoria , flood waters that cause havoc that can be tapped by building dykes and storing that water in massive dams for irrigation. The focus of our food production seems limited to Central and rift yet western and Nyanza have greater potential for growing food crops. i find it so scandalous that this is the case. Western and Nyanza have been so neglected in terms of making them major hubs of food production yet we import Maize, Sugar, Rice, wheat that can be grown in these areas to meet our deficite in these food crops and even produce surplus for export. Now imagine if these vast farms growing sugar and rice could be doubled cropped on a rotational basis with lets say one season they grow the traditional sugar and rice and then the nex season they grow sunflower, soya bean, sorghum, millet on a rotational basis what this does is we can meet our animal feeds demands instead of importing making the feeds cheaper as a result more small scale farmers are able to keep chickens, dairy, pigs , fish improving on food security plus making these protein items cheaper. Also these crops add value to the soil they are nitrogen fixing thus the traditional crops like sugar and rice will produce more per acre and using less inputs like fertilizers since the soils are already healthy.

How people prefer to go to Europe and Arabian counties, work 3-4 jobs with meager salaries and leave this country is beyond me. Just goes to show how we are still enslaved mentality. I've talked to expatriates here and they all cry at the thought of leaving this county. Fix your mind and you'll see the beauty here is unimaginable. Just google the pictures of the Eifel Tower if you really want to see it but the diversity and touring spots are endless here. FIX YOUR MINDS AND STAY!!!!...That fast life in the west is not as advertised. The simplicity of the village with zero taxes is what life is.

[@tyris54]

That stretch has so many factories.. you need to go back soon and do a better video of kisumu. You never passed through the sugar belt... A lot of sugarcane there.... And Nyanza region is usually flat and low land because of the lake which was formed through depression, it's called the lake basin

[@AfrikanTraveller]

Sure.

[@DennisTheNational]

Exactly my point especially if he would have taken the muhoroni -Koru-Londiani junction route, Fields of sugarcane plantation as far as the eyes can see

[@daviddavis7959]

So sad that eight sugar factories are lying dormant unused with all this sugar. We would be a net exporter of sugar.

[@nairobinyeusi5811]

That's because the government decided to only support farmers from Central & Rift valley. They import sugar in Kenya. The sugar in Nyanza & Western is being exported to Uganda, Rwanda, Sudan and Tanzania instead. Tribalism in government is the reason Kenya has food shortage issues.
