JKIA to Karen Transfer
~27 km
45–80 min
Karen is the longest common JKIA transfer — leafy, residential, and home to the country clubs and wedding venues. Plan extra time during rush hour, especially if you are headed beyond Karen to Ngong or Langata. Our chauffeurs know the estate gate codes and the quieter approach via Bogani.

“JKIA to Wilson to Mara, and the reverse a week later — every timing perfect, every hand-off smooth. I never thought about logistics once.”

“Consistently on time, always presented well, and our EAs love how little they have to chase. The monthly invoice alone saves us a day a month.”
