Enquire nowKenya Transport
Kenya transport options offer a range of options varying in affordability and reliability. Some options are better for short distances, while other options are better for travelling to further distances.
Getting around Kenya
There are many ways of getting around Kenya, ranging from the ubiquitous and somewhat risky mini-bus taxis known as Matutu, to self-drive.
Bus Travel in Kenya
Buses run on major routes throughout the country, at fairly reasonable rates. Advance booking is recommended, and you should also call to confirm the booking the day before.
Taxi Travel in Kenya
Taxis or Matutus are the cheapest and quickest ways to get around the country – especially for city travel or shorter distances. Comfort is not part of the deal though, and many are over-crowded and dangerous.
Car Travel in Kenya
Self-drive should only be done by experienced drivers, as roads can be bad – especially in the rainy season. Never drive alone at night however, and try to have a backup car in case something goes wrong.
