Kenya: Facts & Stats

TRANSPORTATION

Roads:

Traffic drives on the left. All major roads are paved and many of the others have been improved, particularly in the southwest, although vast areas of the north still suffer from very poor communications. Care should be taken when leaving trunk roads as the surfaces of the lesser roads vary greatly in quality, particularly during the rainy season. There are petrol stations on most highways.

Railroads:

Kenya Railways Corporation runs passenger trains between Nairobi and Mombasa; trains generally leave in the evening and arrive the following morning after a journey of around 13 to 14 hours.

There is also a railway connecting Nairobi with Kampala in Uganda with branch lines in Kenya to Nanyuki, Kitale and Kisumu. In recent years, because of poor funding for the railways and a spate of accidents and derailments, passenger services on these lines have been largely suspended. In 2006, Kenya Railways Corporation signed an agreement with a South African company, Rift Valley Railways Consortium to run a concession to improve both Kenyan and Ugandan railways over a 25-year period.

Aviation:

Kenya Airways operates scheduled services to Kisumu (on the shore of Lake Victoria), Lamu, Malindi and Mombasa.

Air Kenya offers scheduled flights from Nairobi to Amboseli, Lamu, Malindi, Masai Mara, Mombasa, Lewa, Nanyuki, Meru, Samburu and Kilimanjaro (in Tanzania).

Safarilink operates scheduled services between Nairobi's Wilson Airport and the popular safari destinations; Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, Chyulus, Naivasha, Nanyuki, Lewa, Samburu, Lamu, Kiwayu and Kilimanjaro (in Tanzania).

Based on the coast, Mombasa Air Safaris has scheduled services linking Mombasa, Diani Beach and Malindi with Lamu, Amboseli and Masai Mara.

In addition there are several private charter companies that serve over 150 airstrips around the country.
