Top tips for a smooth airport transfer:
1. Booking Instructions: Pre‑Book and Share Your Flight Number
To ensure a seamless travel experience, we recommend that all passengers pre‑book their cab service in advance. This guarantees availability, especially during peak travel seasons, and allows us to prepare for your journey with precision. When booking, please include your flight number if you are arriving or departing via air travel. Sharing this detail helps us:
By pre‑booking and including your flight number, you enjoy peace of mind, punctual pickups, and personalized service tailored to your travel schedule.
2. Avoid or experience minimal traffic by using the Toll charge Expressway
Nairobi traffic varies widely; peak morning and evening rush hours and construction-related delays can add time. By using the Nairobi expressway road, you'll avoid 45–75 minutes delay from the CBD during busy periods albeit paying small toll fee to use the road.
3. Choose the right vehicle for luggage and passengers
We offer vehicles suitable for solo travelers with carry-on luggage up to larger groups with multiple suitcases. Tell us the number of passengers and luggage pieces when booking so we assign the correct car.
4. Know the pickup points at Nairobi airports
At JKIA and Wilson, drivers generally meet passengers at the Arrivals curb or a designated meeting spot outside the terminal.
5. Keep essentials handy
Keep travel documents, mobile phone, chargers, and medications in your carry-on. Drivers will help with larger suitcases, but items you need during travel should be easily accessible.
6. Use mobile payment or cash and request a receipt
We accept mobile payments and cash payment while we issue receipts for business travelers needing reimbursement. Let us know your payment preference when booking to speed up pickup and drop-off.
