    New Jambo Taxis

    Posted by nathaliapendo 1 January 2008

    Grace of New Jambo Taxis is a female taxi driver; as a woman travelling alone she made me feel safe and was very helpful generally.
    She has an office at the airport, but give her a call and she'll pick you up.

    The train journey by night in sleeper coaches is an unforgettable experience. Do try the trip if you have time. You will not regret it.

    The overnight train from Nairobi to Mombasa is one of the world’s classic rail journeys as well as a rare colonial gem.

    An old diesel pulls out of both stations simultaneously at 7pm and dinner is served immediately — the waiters trying not to spatter soup on their tunics, or you. The rattling of the carriage rocked me to sleep immediately, but make sure you wake early for sunset to see animals on the savannah if you’re coming up to Nairobi or the Manugu plains as you descend to the coast and Mombasa.

    After the cool of Nairobi and the highlands, when you disembark in humid, tropical Mombasa it feels like you’ve arrived in a different country.
