All about Nairobi
When to Visit
The best time to visit Nairobi is during the dry seasons, from June to October and January to February. These months offer pleasant weather, ideal for outdoor activities and game drives. Wildlife viewing in Nairobi National Park is especially rewarding during the dry season as animals gather around waterholes. For those interested in local culture, visiting during public festivals like Jamhuri Day in December provides unique insights.
Getting Around
Nairobi boasts various transportation options, including taxis, ride-hailing services like Uber, and matatus (local minibusses). While matatus offer an authentic Kenyan experience, taxis and rideshares are more comfortable and safer for visitors. Walking is an option in central areas, but exercise caution and avoid certain neighborhoods after dark. Alternatively, organized tours provide stress-free travel to major attractions.
Traveler Tips
Stay in secure accommodations and avoid displaying valuables in public. Always use registered taxis or reputable ride-hailing apps. Carry small amounts of cash for local markets but use cards for larger transactions. Don’t forget sunscreen and a hat to protect yourself from Nairobi’s sunny climate, and always try the delicious local dishes like nyama choma (grilled meat).
