Posts: 415How much taxi from airport? I took Kahama hotel at the end

Here it is unfortunately not yet possible to book online. ".
Instead I booked Kahama hotel, it was only about 35 dollars or 3500 KSh for night. It was quite near this Eureka, and I was frequenting Kahama before in Mombasa until I started to use Big Tree. But then I looked Google Map more carefully, Kahama Nairobi is next to roundabout, looks like there is nothing else near it, whatever I do I need to take taxi. So it looks like mistake. Well, it is paid already for two nights, so there I will stay.
Price of taxi nowadays? Or should I use uber? I heard that in Mombasa taxi drivers don't let uber drivers to airport, how is it Nairobi?

You arrive 2:30--it takes you 1 hour if you lucky to get through immigration and find your luggage. Then you need a cab to town. Till you there its about 5:00 in the monrning.
If you know how to play on Badoo, just arrange a girl to wait on you at the hotel lobby.
If you don't know, just go sleep. LOL.

Posts: 1221Train
In Mtwapa there is a company which buys the ticket for you and provide shuttle service to Miritini station for 1100 ksh. I used it. Worked well. The office is 1st floor in an Office Building besides fuel station near Lambada. Bring your Passport as the ticket will be issued in your name and also the ID/Passport number shows on the ticket.
They told me they plan to extend the service also to Nairobi.
Neddy.
This is for economy of course. But there is little difference. The seats in first class are wider and more comfortable. But all cars are brand new with A/C and working toilets. In the middle there is a dining car. Trip takes about 5 hours.

Posts: 4Which Clubs are open 3,4 and 5 am
I will arrive one Saturday morning 2:30 am at Nbo.
And my plan is to head to a club after checkin at hotel.
So someone knows which Clubs are open 3, 4 and 5 am (and crowded).
I prefer clubs like naiz oder casaurina in mombasa.
I was in Nairobi once for one night and visited a very nice club but I forget the name.
Google map says it was 11 Koinange St. Maybe Dolce CLub iam not sure. Is that still open?
Best regards.

Posts: 415Train from Nairobi to Mombasa: it is better to fly
Traveling to Mombasa, my flights are to only to Nairobi.
I tried to buy train ticket from Nairobi to Mombasa remotely. It was impossible, there is no web service. I should arrive to Nairobi three days before train trip, and then go by taxi to the faraway train station to buy ticket So I abandoned this plan to go by train. My friends in Nairobi warned me to try to buy ticket only when travelling, there is huge demand for this train, even first class tickets are very much wanted.
This is not so big problem however since train has done something good: There are lot of cheap flights available in fly540, before cheapest flights were reserved one or two months before. Now I could buy online cheap flights just a few days before my flight.
Train ticket in first class costs 3000 shilling one direction. Fly540 costs 5500 shillings, Nairobi Mombasa one way.
Add to train ticket cost and time to go to buy them, unless you know somebody in Nairobi that have time to do that. Also, train leaves 9 in the morning, so you need to leave your hotel maybe 7 in the morning? I booked afternoon flight, so I can sleep late.
Second class costs only 700 Kenya shillings, so that is much cheaper. And I would like to do this train trip once, to see the views.
I am sure they will develop later online system better so that "businessmen" (and even police) can't buy all the tickets beforehand and then sell them to desperate travellers, that is what happened to initial webservice.
Feel free to correct me if there is some way to buy them. I found one webservice that promised to buy first class ticket and then deliver to desired address, cost 3500 shillings, but I have lost the link. And I guess with Mpesa you can buy them somehow, I don't have that.

You can get around fucking Eastlands women that have to take a matatu from wherever the fuck they come from, [Deleted by Admin] by fucking students that are in town already. They are not being lazy, they are reluctant to go through all that if they don't know you that well, and the concept of leaving early to be on time is lost to a non-working, uneducated chic. Deal with it.

Food is good, better girls than Tanzania. Definitely a lot of initial action on tinder and badoo compared any other country, but getting over the normal girl laziness to meet, the lazy lump is still present. The strip clubs I visited on a Friday night were horrible with fat single moms abounding. The malls are generally not very crowded, but there are some girls and they're all easily approachable, make eye contact etc.

And those fucking hair extensions do cost a fortune and are smelling like shit. Perhaps because they come from a horse ass.
