Das Museum ist klein aber anschaulich und die Ausgrabungenstätten sind zugänglich. Wir hatten einen Führer (im Eintrittspreis inbegriffender uns sehr ausführlich und kompetent auf englisch alles erläutert hat. Der Standard ist afrikanisch und in diesem Verhältnis 5 Sterne.

Last time I was here I was 12. I was so impressed by the place I came visiting again years later. This if you have any interest in the beginnings of mankind, then this is a must see.The simplicity of the place and the amount of prehistoric tools found here just makes it crazy not to visit even if for just a moment. And see how your ancestors did business in this planet Earth. I plan to take my sons there as soon as I get a chance.

One of the smallest museums of Kenya, Kariandusi is a must visit if you are in the area. For locals, its quite affordable yet very informative. I just had a crash course in early man, geography, climatology, botany and diatomite(thank you Dickson).The area has picnic spots and camping area. For camping, come with a goat, learn how to make stone axes, make them and slaughter and cut the goat using them. Have bonfire while enjoying your meal. Carry your own music and DJ.The place gets windy and cold at night, prepare for that too.Otherwise its a package deal should you be around elementaita. Also have time, you can visit some few neighbouring sites

It was a random stopover at the place. Very welcoming staff and informed guides. The tour was well worth it. They charge 100Ksh for Kenyan adult citizens. Really glad I went.

This is a good place for anyone interested in mans evolution journey as well as the formation of the Great Rift Valley.Whether your foundation is religious faith or science, the displays here including the excavations should align with your beliefs.The Curator Assistants are very well versed with the subject matter. If you are a fan of Louis Leakey, this is one of the many excavations he worked on in his early days.Of course like most Kenyan Museums, the place is kinda run down and decrepit but your continued visits will keep it open.Recommended.

A pre-historic site. Has guided tours and a very interesting place where one can learn about early man and some early settlements.. And by early I mean 1 million years ago. They have some very interesting exhibits. If you have some time to kill then I suggest everyone should visit atleast once.
