nairobi jomo kenyatta airport infoCountry forums / Africa / Kenya | ||
I like to be prepared when i arrive into a new country, so it's nice to know in advance what we have to do to make it to our hotel especially when we are arriving at 9:00 at night. Can anyone tell me where the ATM is in the airport is it difficult to find and if it uses visa. how do we find a taxi, which companies are reliable. I think we will be staying at the Downtown hotel so how much should the cab fare be? | ||
Hello, | 1 | |
There's an ATM on your left as you you come out of Arrivals. Just in front of it there is a taxi-booking kiosk which I always use. Don't pay anymore than Ksh1000. | 2 | |
Many ATMS just outside of baggage claim area. I highly recommend Jim Cabs---there desk is at the Hertz desk (just outside the baggage claim area again). Their rates may be a little more, but their drivers are highly professional, clean cut, and their cars are spotless (not smoky, clean, working, etc.). I live in Nairobi and have their phone number saved into my cell! If you feel the need to question their rates, they will pull out a laminated sheet that has the pre-printed rates on them. I always like this, as it's a reasonably fair rate, and you're excused from hassling immediatley upon arrival! | 3 | |
