    Transfert de l'aéroport Moi International Airport

    The driver picks the volunteer from the airport.  He holds a placard with the volunteers name on it. Sometimes, they are in contact therefore, they already know each other.


    In the case of arriving from Mombasa, the volunteer is picked from the airport and is taken to the bus station, put in the bus by the driver and is picked in Malindi. It is a smooth transfer and opens the culture and experience of traveling in Africa.  The ride from Mombasa to Malindi is approximately 2.5 hours. Arrivals in Malindi, the pick up is quick and in 10 minutes the volunteers arrive their destination. 

    In the case of Nairobi, the volunteer can either come by road, air or rail.  Either way, he is picked up from the airport, if by bus they are taken to the bus station and put in a bus and are picked up in Malindi.  These buses travel at night and are quite safe too. 

    Train hours are; 8.00 am, 15.00 and 22.00. The most recommended time is 8.00 so that the arrival is at 14.00 and then a shuttle for two hours from Mombasa to Malindi.  There is a pick up at the SGR Mombasa station.
