Kenya - Arrival


Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta international airport is the hub of East African air transport, and it has connections to many European and US cities. It's from here that you're most likely to get a relatively cheap ticket, but it's worth checking out cheap charter flights to Mombasa from Europe too. 

You can travel by bus between Kenya and Tanzania. The main routes are from Mombasa or Nairobi to Dar es Salaam and from Nairobi to Arusha and Moshi. There's also a once-weekly train connection between Voi in Kenya and Moshi in Tanzania. Ferries and occasionally, dhows connect Mombasa with Zanzibar and Dar es Salaam.

The main border crossing into Uganda is at Malaba, though Busia is an alternative if you're coming from Kisumu. Nairobi and the Ugandan capital Kampala are connected by road and rail. There's a border crossing to Ethiopia frequently used by travelers and overland trucks at Moyale. There's no way you can enter or exit Kenya overland from Somalia or Sudan at present.
