Drive To Kisumu Again

Nairobi. The journey from Nairobi to Kisumu (described in our Transect Drive 1) has an alternative route. The route is about 380 kilometres long, and takes about 7 and a half hours by bus, and about 5 and a half hours by car. Your immediate challenge will be disengaging from the heavy traffic of Kenya’s capital city, after which you drive along Waiyaki Way and Naviasha Road towards Limuru. Just as you get to Limuru is the road junction leading to the Rift Valley escarpment and Maai Mahiu town. It’s at this junction that the route divergence takes place.
