CAN NBO lands at 0610, so by the time you are out through immigration it will be 0700.

I would suggest go straight to Nairobi National Park via East Gate. That way you avoid traffic through town, and you can have a safari till 11.00 am.

Then head to the city and catch up with your friend.

In the afternoon you can head to Karen and check out the Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen Museum, have dinner at Talisman or Tamambo Karen Blixen Coffee Gardens, and be back at JKIA by 10pm for your 11.50 pm flight to LHR.

As mentioned in another post, there are no lounges at JKIA, so no chance for a shower.
