I used this book while living in Nairobi for 3 months. It was especially helpful for planning my excursions around the country. My Kenyan friends couldn't believe how helpful it was. They didn't even know where to get the kind of information the book provides.
One thing that is especially helpful in all of the Lonely Planet Country guides, is that they rank accommodations and food in three price categories for each geographic location or site: budget, mid range, or top end. This was especially helpful for me, a student, on a tight budget. I knew where I could afford to stay and where I wouldn't even look.
I wouldn't travel to Kenya without it!
