WHAT IT IS

Picked up and driven out — airport to your door

This page is for arrivals only: picking you up at the airport and driving you into the city. If you are going the other way — from your hotel out to the airport for a flight — that is our Transfers – Departures service, and it should be booked there instead.

Tell us the flight number and we track the flight rather than the clock. If the aircraft lands early or three hours late, your driver is there when you actually walk through. He waits in the arrivals hall with your name on a board, helps with the luggage and takes you to the vehicle.

From JKIA we drive you anywhere in Nairobi and beyond, whether that is a hotel in Westlands, a home in Karen or a lodge out of town; from Wilson Airport we cover the domestic and charter arrivals. You are met, you are driven, and you pay the route price on the rate card with no surprises at the kerb.

Book at least 24 hours ahead — later than that, message us on WhatsApp

Straight from the airport to your hotel or address, at the route price agreed before you travel.

Transfers – Arrivals is charged per route. Tell us the flight and the number of passengers and we will confirm the exact total in writing before you travel — nothing is added afterwards.

QUESTIONS

Transfers – Arrivals FAQs

Fill in the enquiry form on our homepage or send us a WhatsApp message on +254 719 276227. Share your flight number, arrival date and time, the number of passengers and your drop-off address. We confirm your vehicle and driver details within 15 minutes.

Yes. We track every flight number you give us, so if your flight is delayed or arrives early your driver is adjusted automatically. There is no extra charge for waiting caused by a delayed flight.

We specialise in Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) and Wilson Airport (WIL), and we also handle transfers to and from all Nairobi hotels, residences, offices and the SGR station. Longer transfers to Naivasha, Nakuru, Amboseli, Nanyuki and Mombasa are available on request.

Fares depend on the vehicle type, the drop-off location and the time of day. A standard sedan from JKIA to the Nairobi CBD or Westlands is our most popular option. Send us your details and we will quote you an all-inclusive price - there are no hidden charges.

On arrival our driver meets you in the arrivals hall with a name board or company signage. If you add the Meet & Greet option we will wait from the moment your flight lands and help with your luggage.

Yes, child seats and booster seats are available free of charge on request. Just tick Child Seats under Special Requirements when you submit your enquiry.

All our airport transfer prices are per vehicle, not per person, and they include fuel, the driver and airport parking. That means a group of four travelling together pays the same as a single traveller in the same vehicle category.

An arrival transfer collects the passenger at the airport and takes them to a hotel, residence or meeting. A departure transfer collects them from their address and delivers them to the terminal in time for the flight. They are booked separately because they are rarely the same date, or the same vehicle.

At least twelve hours ahead, and earlier for a very early flight. We plan the pick-up so the passenger reaches the terminal three hours before an international departure and two hours before a domestic one.

Round it out

Meet & Assist – Arrivals

A uniformed host meets you inside the terminal with a name board, helps with the trolley and stays with you through immigration, baggage and customs to the kerbside handover.

USD 40 per arrival

Meet & Assist – Departure

Your host meets you at the terminal entrance, helps with check-in and any tax refund, and walks you through immigration and security all the way to the gate.

USD 40 per departure

Meet & Assist – Transit

A host meets you at the inbound gate, walks you through transit security to the onward gate, and stays with you in between so a tight connection never feels like a gamble.

USD 50 per transit

Airport Fast Tracking

A licensed agent meets you at the aircraft and walks you through the fast-track lane past the immigration queue, then on through baggage, customs and the kerbside. Works on arrival, departure or in transit, and combines with Meet & Assist.
