Airport to city

Train & bus · Check in advance whether a train or shuttle bus runs from the terminal — at many airports it's the fastest and cheapest way into town.

Taxi & apps · Take a taxi from the official rank with the meter, or pre-book a ride on a known app. Avoid drivers touting for a fare in the arrivals hall. Rounding up is accepted almost everywhere.

Transfers & car rental in Kenya
