Nairobi Getting to and from Wilson Airport from Jomo Kenyatta Airport?
Posted: Thu July 5, 2007 11:10 AM UTC
Hope someone can help me on this as I can't seem to find any info on this!
My sister is travelling out to Nairobi to work at a base on Wilson Airport. Does anyone know the best and safest way for her to get from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport to Wilson Airport? Can something be booked in advance with a reputable company?
Please help!

No need to book anything in advance, there are lots of taxis outside the airport. She should just agree on a price upfront. To the city centre is it us usually around 3,000 - 3,200 KSH. Not sure what it would cost to Wilson Airport.

Thanks Krumel! She'll be arriving about 6am - do you know if taxis will be there then and they're safe for a girl travelling alone? ...Maybe Big Sis is worrying too much!

I always travel on my own to Kenya and have used lots of taxis, and never had a problem with any of them. When flights arrive you can be sure that there are taxis at the airport looking for business, even if it is at 6am in the morning.
