About this route
Coming down from Nairobi by road, you cross at Namanga. We meet you on the Tanzanian side so you are not negotiating a fare with a stranger after the border queue.
- Tell us roughly when your bus or car reaches the border; we follow up on WhatsApp on the day.
- Kenyan and East African travellers: ask about local rates on day trips and safaris too.
