BACK TO TOP

The towns in the western highlands are small, agriculturally-oriented service towns much like mid-western America. The real attractions for tourists are clustered outside these towns: Mt. Elgon and Saiwa Swamp national parks near Kitale, the tea plantations surrounding Kericho, the Kakamega Forest near Kakamega, and the Cherangani Hills northeast of Eldoret.

Kisii is a remote town with very little tourist travel despite the fact that this is where the famous soapstone is mined. You can visit the village of Tabaka, 11 km beyond Kisii, to experience a working quarry. The entire village is involved in the quarry operation which includes the actual carving as well. Three active quarries are currently operating, each employing up to 50 people. The carvers are all men and most produce 6 - 10 carvings per day
