Nairobi serves as the headquarters of two major United Nations (UN) programs: the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat), meaning many expatriates and diplomats travel to Kenya for work, meetings, or to oversee major programs. Many other countries have their embassies in Nairobi, making it a diplomatic hub.

We have a fleet of luxurious and comfortable cars that aid in the movement of expatriates and diplomats from Muthaiga, Karen, or Westlands to Gigiri and many other destinations. Whether you prefer self-drive or a chauffeur, each of that is exclusively offered.
