Nairobi is a nice place but not as friendly or as appealing as Mombasa or the Malindi areas. I didnt feel like tourism is a big dealfor them and unless you were an Indian there was no love...

4/5 - Good

I will be back to visit. I found the people warm hospitable and kind. Local food was delicious.
3/5 - Okay
Verified traveler
The roads are very bad and it’s difficult to get anywhere. The traffic is confused, and it’s lacking a system.
4/5 - Good

Very vibrant city, clean, modern, relatively safe.
5/5 - Excellent

Ubers are readily available, but whenever you're in a car be sure to buckle your seatbelts in both the front and back. Otherwise you're likely to be stopped by a policeman and threatened with arrest. Foreigners should carry their passports with them.
