Cleaning a kitchen

My sister is moving house tomorrow and has asked me to help her give her new kitchen a clean. I'm going there in the morning and will bring with me some white vinegar and stardrops.
I've been told the kitchen units is real oak and I'm unsure what to use on them (I don't want to damage them). She is hopeless when it comes to cleaning and I'd like it to look nice for her moving in.
