Landing at JKIA and heading straight on to Arusha? Our airport shuttle picks up from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport at 08:30 (arriving Arusha around 13:40) and 14:30 (arriving around 19:30), so there's no need to detour into central Nairobi first.

The journey takes about 5 hours, including the stop at the Namanga border where you'll clear Kenyan exit and Tanzanian entry immigration yourself — allow roughly 45 minutes for this. Drivers meet you at an agreed point in the arrivals area, so build in some buffer after your flight lands before the shuttle's scheduled pickup time.
Each fare includes two bags up to 30 kg plus a backpack, ideal if you've just landed with full luggage. You can change your date for free up to 12 hours before departure, and your e-ticket is emailed to you as soon as you book, ready to show at the pickup point.
At an agreed point in the arrivals area — we'll send you the exact meeting instructions and a contact number after booking.
We recommend at least 90 minutes to clear immigration and baggage claim before your scheduled shuttle pickup time.
No, it goes directly from JKIA to Arusha via Namanga, so there is no detour into the city centre.
Around 5 hours in total, including the Namanga border stop where you clear immigration yourself.
