Getting around

Bus & tram
Bus
Most of the city bus services run by KBS (229707) pass through central Nairobi, but the main KBS terminus is on Uyoma St, east of the centre. Useful services include bus 23 from Jevanjee Gardens for Westlands (KSh10).
Local transport
Taxi
Nairobi’s taxis are overpriced rust-buckets that leak choking fumes, but you’ve little choice but to use them, particularly at night. Fares are negotiable, but any journey within the central Nairobi area costs KSh250 and you can expect to pay up to KSh500 to get to Westlands.
