Hello,
I may arrive at the Nairobi airport about 3 o'clock in the morning.  Is there bus service to the city?  If not, how do I identify a good taxi company to take me to the city?
Thanks, :)

You will be arriving this morning? so its better you ask the airport management to arrange a cab for you, they will help you with that. coz its an international airport so no need to worry, there will be someone to guide you. Have a nice journey, welcome to nairobi...

There are airport taxis, which are all painted yellow.  Personally, I would be a bit hesitant about travelling into Nairobi at that time and would probably wait until around 5:30 - 6:00am.  Maybe its just me though!

there is a lot of taxis in the airoport, you must negociate the price in the beggining (1600Khs -2000Khs)
