This is one of the best gems in Machakos, it has an amazing collection of african artifacts and a well designed tour that not only is knowledgeable but creative.

It highlights the passion that owner Allan Donavan had in collecting items that span from The kalahari, west Africa, Morocco and of course the East African region.

The views from the african heritage house are amazing. The nairobi national park and the Ngong hills are just the picturesque views visible from here.

Lunch/dinner is also available but prior bookings are needed. The food is very flavorful and comprises of a 5 course meal.

Definitely worth the visit!

Based on mud architecture from mosques of Mali at Djenne, the house is an architecture masterpiece designed by American former diplomat, arriving in Africa over 50 years ago, Alan Donovan dedicated his life to the preservation and promotion of African Heritage. The house houses a rare collection of African art, most of which have disappeared completely. The house offers Bed and breakfast, meals and day Tours.
The staff members makes you feel at home and Alan Donovan is a fine gentleman.
The house features a pool house and is overlooking Nairobi National Park.

African Heritage House is a good place to take photos for your wedding. It's a real African house with a collection of arts from all over Africa.

Do not go to this place.
1. It's really hard to find
2. When we got there there they were extremely rude
3. They wanted me to pay 40 USD just to walk in (there was no price list, I just think that was the price they felt like saying at the moment)
4. Absolutely nothing to see there except for the view over the national park, which you can get a several places for free.

All in all, a waste of time and money.

I loved the African Heritage House and have been multiple times to bring family and friends. There are hundreds of incredibly beautiful pieces of art from all over Africa. Alan Donavan, the owner of the home shares a wealth of knowledge with his guests making a visit a truly unique experience. Lunch is delicious, the views fantastic, and of course you can also stay the night. I highly recommend coming here if you visit Nairobi.

It's a very unique architectural feat, with marvelous Africa artifacts featured all over the property and interiors. Great for a day out and they even offer a tour plus early sundowner dinner overlooking the national park. The google maps driving instructions are incorrect, you have to drive on Mombasa rd till mlolongo then take the slip rd back to nairobi and there's a sign for Alan Donovan on the left right on the main rd.

Nice place to escape buzy Nairobi for a day or two. This is a private museum and visit should be booked in advance. If u self-drive please do not let google map and current service road construction mislead you. Your orientation should be Kasina Guest House just off Mombasa road. Entrance to Heritage is just next door. Enjoy!
