Nairobi City

In Kenya, the River Nile serves as a gateway to spectacular adventures and cultural encounters.

  • Getting Around: Taxis and ride-hailing apps like Uber and Bolt are the most reliable ways to get around Nairobi. Public transport options like matatus can be crowded and are best avoided if unfamiliar with the routes.
